Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
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.

Perhaps the under-25s he's consulting are his kids?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
To be fair, I think it's probably safe to say that anyone who fanatically adores the first 2 prequels (and they are out there) is under 25.
The reverse, however, not so true.

If I only had a brain...
I am the proprietor of two under-twentyfives who are apathetic about Star Wars and hyped about seeing Serenity. Of course, I corrupted them.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
The films that these people don't like - which are the first two prequels - are fanatically adored by the under 25s.
Even if that were true (and I have no idea one way or the other, since almost everyone I know is over 25), isn't he effectively saying "my recent movies are loved by all the people who haven't had the time to develop good taste yet!"?

I can vouch that Emmett loves them, but he saw them before he turned 8. So it may be the "under 25" portion where George is inaccurate.

The Golden Age of Star Wars: The New Stuff is under 10.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

And pretty much all Gungans loved the prequels. And four out of five Wookies surveyed love EP3.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
And four out of five Wookies surveyed love EP3.
I don't see why. They've been digitized.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They've been digitized.
They've what? Curse the advances in technology that allow this. However, I like the ones that give you massive armies creeping implacably towards our protagonist(s). Those are cool.
