I'm not one who reads Rogert Ebert, or movie ciritics or the zillions of debased movie-blogs which seem to condemn everything for even existing ,I say what about the overall picture. I like B-grade movies, sometimes the worst films ever made have value. It depends on how you look at things. There are things in Apocalypse Now which can be citicized the same way the criticism of star wars seems to be in this forum, and even Plan 9 From Outer Space has merits. I think I uunderstand the "i'm betrayed" attitude, and the general feeling of George Lucas as a hack, or big businessman out for more money, but if there was a vision in star wars, behind all the flaws, and defects, what was it and what can be criticized about it?

Take my avatar, "Van Helsing," perhaps one of the worst movies ever made, a Turkey Award winner, and yet I find some bit of redeeming subtance in it. I don't recomend it, but it appeals to me on another level, and perhaps others. I could agree to no end with every flaw, and defect, every pandering and wasted piece of celluloid in it, but there remains something there. If we're talkin Star Wars here, ,now that its all over and done with, what is really wrong with it, or right with it, on a level above "Greiveous coughs too much."??
