Ok, I don't really hate Star Wars. But I was obsessed with the films as a teenager and now can't help but see them as deeply flawed movies whose enjoyability is owed almost entirely to the charisma and talent of Harrison Ford. Take Han Solo out of the first three films and you get the second three films. Take Ford away from the wooden acting and maudlin pathos of the Star Wars films and put him in the hands of a director with talent and you get Raiders of the Lost Ark, which is a fantastic film that actually does have in it everthing people think the Star Wars movies do. But don't listen to me. As I've said before, I'm in film school, doing stuff towards becoming a director as my career, and as such can't help but be critical when it comes to film. |
It's funny because since the new Indiana Jones as been release, everybody I talk to agrees that Indiana Jones is pretty much Han Solo as an adventure in the 20th century.
How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...
