        @scalzi 🙌🏽 - always got confused when they started calling it that. It's just Star Wars! 🙂

              @scalzi I also will never consider "The Phantom Menace" canon. Delete the entire film from the timeline and nothing of value is lost.

                  I'm just glad I never in muh whole life heard anyone call them Star Wars 2 and 3. 🤪
                  It's
                  Star Wars
                  Empire
                  Return of the Jedi

                  Then there's the rest that mean absolutely nothing in any way except theme-park dough, yet are otherwise totally harmless and entirely forgettable but completely watchable because fuckin' Star Wars.

                          Huh, not mentioned on the cover at all, but not surprising in hindsight, it reads a lot like him.

                          I've read a bunch of his other things, but this was my one example of good writing by George Lucas, so now I'm just disappointed in him.

                          @david_chisnall @billiglarper @scalzi George didn't write any of his Star Wars screenplays, his ex-wife did.

                          PS: she is the only one of the two to have won an Oscar, and the only one in the creative division of Star Wars to do so. the franchise is notorious for winning in the tech categories not the creative ones. so it’s kinda poetic justice given his vigorous attempts at erasing her from the franchise’s history.

                                @scalzi Saw the first three "real" Star Wars movies in theaters, as they were released. The first one was the best, along with the great music score.

                                I later saw "episode 1" and couldn't watch half of it. Gah. Gave up on the series then.
