Guys, "tone" is not the same as "bad things happen."

He was the only sentient being in the universe that was lucky enough to forget about the events of the prequels - why would they make him remember?

You could qualify TFA as a "remake/reboot" though, seeing as how they're planning like 10 more movies to launch from this one.

New Star Wars is Too Much Like Star Wars, Complain People Who Like Star Wars

What do you mean, "saved"? I thought The Phantom Menace was a work of weird genius now?

That's what I hate the most about the prequels in general though, and about Revenge of the Sith in particular. The whole movie is written backwards to just "set up" the first Star Wars… as if it needed to be set up at all. It becomes so intent on leading up to the imagery of the original that it's moronic.

Please explain exactly where the "fun" can be found in any of the 3 prequels.

Totally. Avatar: The Last Airbender is one of my all-time favorite shows and one of the best modern "hero's journey" tales. Great characters, great dialogue, great action… GOD, I love that show. Anyone who writes it off as just a kid's show is really missing out.
