I'M SO SICK OF DARK.
Film, and TV used to be about escaping you everyday life. Yes, the rich history of TV, and film, does include, many, many, dark stories, that seems to be all there is now, and what there is, is darker then ever before. The hole reason I got out of star wars fandumb is because of the Dark. Ever since Ep III everything is too dark. The books are TOO DARK. The comics are TOO DARK. The Games are TOO DARK. And Ep III was too Dark. I get it, it's dark times in a galaxy far, far away. it's a time of war, and unrest, but life sucks, and these are hard time in the real world.
"Oh, G, my life is like a country song, I have lost my kids, my wife, my job, my house, etc. I know I'll set down and watch an hour of misery ,to take my mind of things. I'm so going to get involved in the awful lives of these really fake characters, in a poorly developed universe, set in a galaxy far, far, away. That's going to keep me from jumping out a window." My life my not be that particular country song, but it sucks enough that I would rather spend my time in other ways.
That said, I have not been a fan for over 7 years now, and I'm not the target audience for this show, or thread, so for those that like this junk, enjoy. I would rather eat hair then watch 5 minutes of it.
