Mal ,'Objects In Space'
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
if Carter can blatantly disregard everything he wrote a few years earlier
At least (dog forgive me for defending CC) CC's only retconning, not actually altering the work for which he has no respect.
I'd still rather watch 9 seasons of the X Files, than half-an-hour of Phantom Menace or AotC.
Well, 7, for sure. But if it was to be an entire hour of AotC, I'd probably go with 9.

True enough. I guess I'm looking at it from the point of view that if Lucas has to alter stuff in the originals to bring them in line with shit he's introduced in the new films, then he clearly ignored what he'd written before when "writing" the new films.

I originally just had 7 but changed it to 9 as a contingency to cover any footage involving Anakin and Whatsherface.

A very wise decision.
I used to hate the Ewoks utterly, but then they became the butt of the best joke ever to appear in Wizard. (One of their editors became the new herald of Galactus and the first world he led the Big G to was Endor.)
All kindsa awful movies have Vangelis-style music.
Best not be including BLADE RUNNER in that group.

Nope, I like Blade Runner. But the music sucks.
Funnily enough as I drove home from hellboy (rocks, BTW. Superhero film of the year so far) there was a Vangelis special on the radio. Chariots is still ace, but the rest is dreadful obvius melodies gussied up with sub-tangerine dream drones.

Love the film, like the soundtrack.
They named a hurricane after Mark Hamill? Harsh.
