Star Wars Fanboy rant: WARNING!! My video response to Vader's crying.



This is just a taste of what's to come as far as unleashing venom on LucasFilm, as well as a somewhat heated (do we argue any other way?) discussion between me and Trav as to when a filmmaker's work is no longer his...that is to say, he should no longer be able to legally F with it.

As the included video will tell/show you, I am completely against the change addressed in this video. Vader's silent decision to sacrifice himself for his son and finally quit being a cryborg and realize the full balancing ability of his forceitude is simply amazing. Sure part of me would like to see a lightsaber duel between Vader and the crusty guy in the cape, but if we've learned nothing from the prequels let us remember...sometimes it's best left to the imagination. So, the only option....what we already had! "Not enough!" says Darth Flannelous, the circle must be complete, all is in place to slowly turn the greatest villain in Americana to no more than a leather clad lassie (yeah...he doesn't even get pit bull at this point.). This may seem silly but to we who hold the saga sacred this is tantamount to pop culture terrorism, oh that's right...I went there. (Shockingly I'm the first person to use the term pop culture terrorism, that I know of. It just seems a ripe and ready phrase for the likes of 'Jersey Shore' and 'Teen Mom'...but I digress)
