was thinking a bit more about the whole Star Wars saga… having read the view of Gareth. It seems there was an outcry against the first two films, how they were not as good as the “originals”. But was this partly to do with film culture moving on – in terms of technology; what’s being released; what’s being requested… the original trilogy was unique, groundbreaking, nothing like it in its era… but now, we have sci-fi overload…
surely the new films are trying to appeal to a new audience, as the old fans are so in love that they will go watch them no matter what…
well? we do don’t we…
