Message: [QUOTE="ZooCougar, post: 4241560, member: 296"] Star Wars is the McDonald’s of fiction. I don’t even consider it science fiction anymore. McDonald’s food is just blended in a way that appeals to taste. One burger has meat and fat from hundreds of different cows. They get the fat, salt and sugar combo just right. McDonald’s fries are literally coated in sugar. All of it is so bad for you that your body will struggle to obtain any sort nutrition from it. And it just sits there for a while as your body tries to deal with it. Then when you eat something healthier in the next meal because it’s still there it blocks your body’s ability to absorb that. That’s what Star Wars is. There is nothing original about it. They just ripped off a bunch of tropes and themes from Dune, Kurosawa, westerns, King Arthur, Tolkien etc. It’s just the right mixture salt, fat and sugar. I will never watch Star Wars again or the awful spinoff series. The first three movies weren’t awful. But the studio actually had some control over Lucas. When the next three came out the studio had no control and the product was hot garbage. As a result, Disney realized they could make a fortune pumping out mediocre to crappy content. And this is where we are. Never again. [/QUOTE]
