The Wook,
As I've said before I agree mostly with your points and believe that we generally get on, but, as you own neither the term "Star Wars" or the term "Intelligence Quotient"
I find your use of it derogatory and more importantly dull.
Never said I own SWIQ. Just that I coined the term. I said an absolute SWIQ exists, whether people are aware of it, admit it, or not.
If a Star Wars Intelligence Quotient must remain a thing I would like to point out how utterly ridiculous that someone who thought that with Empire "they'd ruined Star Wars" or someone who can say and I quote...."you're just a child. With a small brain. It's true. A brain a third the size of ours." to another member, be the keeper of it.
I was a child. I didn't know any better. I was not mature enough to recognize the brilliant ways in which ESB lived up the ANH standard of SWIQ. Apparently you were, at four years my junior, no less. I'm very proud of you.
And again, I am not the "keeper" of SWIQ. SWIQ exists, in absolute terms. We all possess an individual SWIQ, which either matches that absolute (exceedingly rare), or falls short of it to varying degrees.
As for my "derogatory" comment to that (alleged) 15-year old posting in this thread, about him having a small brain, it's a quote I borrowed from Anchorman. So lighten up, Francis. (Btw, that's another movie quote, from Stripes. So don't get your knickers all in a bunch, mate. lol) Let me be clear, though. Even though I was adding some humor to the discourse with the Anchorman quote, the quote does accurately reflect my opinion of a 15-year old brain--that most often brains at that stage of development are not mature enough to understand what belongs in a Star Wars movie and what doesn't.
And not just because the brains aren't fully developed. But because young developing brains today, and for the last decade or two, are being conditioned to accept, expect, and like just the kind of lazy, uninspired drivel being force fed to them by the cynical puppet masters running Hollywood.
I love your musings in general Wook and yes I love you, ya walking carpet, but I think with this sort of talk you are going to get banned one day.
I really shouldn't come on these threads...I just don't like people insulting each other.
Thankfully, the people with the powers to ban are not as fragile and hypersensitive as you.
I like you, too, spacebob. I just think you should toughen up a bit. You know, keep calm and carry on. Stiff upper lip, an' all that, mate.
Pip pip cheerio!
