Donovan Trip posted:Regarding Lucas, The phantom menace is at least tightly edited and fun bad rather than boring bad. Kids like it. That's more than many would say about the new trilogy yeah aint nothin more fun than going to the senate floor to talk about trade regulations and electing a new chancellor kids love watching an old man in a robe haggle with a flying jewish stereotype, how fun!

Watto has a brooklyn accent, loves gambling, is honest in business to his own detriment, runs a locally respected autoparts business, and loves NASCAAR which are all obviously jewish stereotypes as we all know

You mean his pith helmet looking hat that looks nothing like a yarmulke? Look up his hat again. Also if all it takes having a trunk to be a jewish stereotype is babar a jewish stereotype?

You know what they should have done instead of releasing the prequel trilogy in order from Episode I, II and III, they should have released it III, II, I and had episode I contain a huge revelation that totally changes the tone or context of the series if viewed in episode order.

I havent worked out the flying part, but I also havent hunted every indian elephant yet to prove they all cant fly so Ill get back to you on that

It was explained in great length in CineD that there are no racial caricatures in TPM. Now if you disagree, I suggest you go to one of the Star Wars threads there to discuss it. SMG hasn't been fed in a while.

They make very long posts about movies in cined and are much smarter than me, using terms like dialectical and ontological to describe movies where pro wrestlers crack fart and poop jokes with giant fighting robots

CineD is what happens when you let a joke get out of hand. But instead of "ironic" racism turning into actual racism, it's ironic bad film criticism turning into actual bad film criticism

Watto is actually a very, very offensive stereotype of japanese and inuit people because he can fly and plays dice.

for a franchise that's heavily informed by eastern mythology it's pretty cool how in Star wars immortality is good and cool instead of a perversion of the natural order

We have yet to see how kids who are watching the st right now will turn out, if they'll even remember the movies. I suspect not. The tv tropes page writing of tlj only really appeals to adults who never really liked star wars that much and thought something "different" was interesting.
