I can't hear the opening bars of the John Williams theme without getting chills down my spine and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Good god, do you really have some sort of emotional bond with the original trilogy to such an extent that it affects you physically just being reminded of it? That's not insightful, that's sad.

The sage wisdom of William Shatner and Chris Elliott comes to mind when reading your drooling fanboyism, "Get a life!"

Star Wars was a good bunch of movies. But they certainly aren't anyhing to spend more than a few seconds reminiscing about.

Lucas did some extraordinary things in his career, and he definitely deserves this award for those achievements. However, crossing the line from excited interest in his work to Pavlovian drooling at the sound of his name is just, as I said earlier, sad.

Tarantino?

Two good movies? Reservoir Dogs is his only decent flick.

The rest are rehashing the same idiotic themes repeatedly.
