Stars Wars should be:

  1. NOT complicated (a simple story told well is always sufficient)

    yeah I still want to read that one "Before the Awakening". But untill that time, I will be seeing the force awakens three more times so that I complete my 10X viewing streak.

    i've only seen it once a week since it came out (what does that make, 6?). i've got the crumb-ball cam playing on a loop while i'm working through, so that holds me ~ hahaha.

    i'm dead broke, but i do go to the early tuesday matinee and it only costs $7, which fits well within my budget. it's totally worth it to me to forego some other nicety.

    Can we stay on topic here, and offer more than one-line off topic responses? Thanks.

    I don't really care whether a movie is complex or simple in style, as long as I enjoy the story very much.



    You mean the treacle ending that featured Anakin maintaining his feelings about Padme, despite being initiated into the Jedi Order and Palpatine smiling, because he is now the Republic's new chancellor?

    Or do you mean like the treacle ending of "Return of the Jedi"?

    just describing the specific video for @Ammianus Marcellinus because he couldn't access it. i'm sure the saga is full of other treacle based on one's tastes.
