. . . a beloved movie franchise turns itself into a laughing stock, loses all touch with its true fan base and finally becomes so bad that even the most die hard and loyal supporters of the franchise are forced to look in the mirror and acknowledge that the glory is gone, and accept the beloved object of their fandom is dead.As a life long Star Wars fanatic I had to face the facts and finally say the words. STAR WARS IS DEAD, AND MY OBSESSION HAS DIED WITH IT.
John also looks back and points to Jar Jar Binks as the beginning of the end. True dat.
UPDATE: Star Wars fan Harry from Ain't It Cool is saying something similar with a profanity-laced rant. George Lucas seems to be actively trying to drive away the dedicated fans as quickly as possible. He lost me years ago.
