Take him away and shoot him

Why didn’t George Lucas just stop? The first films were fun. And Harrison Ford had a great backside. *drifts off into a pleasant reverie*

The three prequels are insipid, sentimental, stereotypical, overblown half-arsed piles of disgustingly expensive horse-shit, and the ubiquitous merchandise bandwagon churns out special offers that get cheaper and nastier as the months roll on*. There is no escape.

And on top of this, I have to put up with an ad at my bus stop that flashes and makes noises like a cheap’n'nasty toy light-sabre from Argos, and which so deeply alarmed a blind man this morning that he nearly stepped in front of a bus.

Somebody do something…

*If you get an orange phone, they’ll give you a holder in the shape of Darth Vader’s helmet.
