Lucas: I intend to rape the franchise for every nickel I can. I'll destroy as many childhood memories as needed to acomplish this. It doesn't matter if I have to rewrite it so the planet Dantoine shoots att he Death Star first.

If you had RTFA, you would already know that King George hated the originals because he couldn't do what he "really wanted" with them, and spent 8 years apologising to anyone who would listen to his ramblings.

This is one of those cases where not having the proper tools, or sufficient time, to do the job created something better than it would have otherwise been.

BTW: Georgie doesn't give a rat's ass what you, a fan, thinks.

Um, Stargate is NEW, and makes Star Trek look like total shit... best sci-fi show ever, period. Its the only reason IMO why the sci-fi channel exists, lol, its more like the Stargate channel :).
