The first Star Wars sequel (Ms. Portman was in the cast.)was one of the most UN PC movies ever made. The galactic govt. is described as corrupt and ineffective (anti govt.). There is absolute good and evil (no relativistic morality here). Almost the entire cast is white. The good guys are entrepreneurial while the bad guys are centrally commanded. The comic relief character seems close to 1960's black carricature.

The second of the Star Wars sequels was a really really bad movie.

Good job! I thought Natalie Portman had enough brains to stay away from cads like our former Pres. I hope she survived her evening with him unmolested.

He continued by saying that in Vietnam, no one had dress uniforms due to the conditions and that he thought Kerry went there just to polish his resume for the future.

Any thoughts on this?

There are still SW fans in complete denial over this. Simply amazing.

The man is right and that is the first thing that my husband pointed out about the photos of Kerry and the swift boat crew. He said that the men would not even have their dress uniforms with them. There's no room for things you wouldn't use or wear. The pictures were pre-planned, he even brought his own super eight camera and re-staged the events so that he could be recorded in "battle".

Ms. Portman is proof that Harvard girls are not immune to Hollywood stupidity.

Khakis aren't considered "a dress uniform". Dress Whites and Dress Blues are. Khakis would more than likely be the uniform of the day for zeros and chiefs while dungarees would be the uniform of the day for all other enlisted personnel. Kerry went to Viet Nam to maintain his political viability just like Slick Willie lied to Colonel Holmes to do the same.

Great! You also raise a good point that I wish our side would mention more. Kerry was not even a leader in the U.S. Senate of 100 people, what makes him think he can lead the greatest country in the world? What did he do for 20 years in the U. S. Senate?

I wonder why Willard is hanging around Portman - Not enough breast-meat there to interest bubba.

You ain't kidding. And Portman was partially responsible for it. She's an average actress, and Hayden Christiansen is brutal. I couldn't buy their romance for a second.

George Lucas has put himself in a corner. The last of the prequels better be good, or the entire series is tainted.

Dammit! Natalie Portman was the only good thing about the new Star Wars series.

No, Star Wars Ep. It was un-PC, it was just too stupid. There's no joy in watching a floppy-eared Barney speak in a Jamaican accent. It was actually a lame attempt at being "racially inclusive," just done so stupidly it came out racist.

Did you miss the fact that the REAL bad guys were the capitalists trying to pull strings on the socialist government? Everyone watching the movie did so knowing about Episode 4, where we find out that the capitalists have taken power, so we find out their true, Nazi selves.
