Lucas has been subtly doing this for years, IMO.

So are the freepers who wanted to boycott Kingdom of Heaven now going to call for a boycott of Star Wars? laugh.

I thought Lucas was a card carrying Republican.

He is a darling of the Liberal, Bay area mdia set.
He is not even "moderate."
To: mlbford2
He is, but he has no love of Nixon and the Vietnam-era politicians.

"'So this is how liberty dies-to thunderous applause.'"
I might be wrong but isn't that a Roman quote, I am thinking Cicero or maybe Cato the Younger or maybe later in History.
Seems like I heard it before now.

You did. If you want new ideas, read old books; if you want to old ideas, watch new movies.

The evil character "Nute Gunray" in Ep I was a slap both at Gingrich and Reagan.

Gives "inconsequential' new dimensions.

The Democrat Party has permanent "Peter Pan" syndrome. They never grew up, and they don't WANT to grow up.

I think Medved should lay off the movie popcorn.

Lucas donated to Boxer way back like 15 years ago, was she as nutty then as she is now?
To: gopwinsin04
Frankly, this is a tempest in a teapot imho. Star Wars is great entertainment, and the parallels between Sith Lords and George W. Bush exist only in the minds of those already convinced Bush is evil.
The fact of the matter is that Bush isn't a dictator, robbing people of liberty. Anyone with half a brain--hell, a quarter of a brain--can understand what he's doing is protecting liberty.
Of course I wouldn't expect the Hollywood elitists or the LameStream Press to recognize it--they've been running 'round in self-applauding circles for years. But generally, I believe, the average American gets it.
So I intend to enjoy Star Wars and the story it tells.

'Only a Sith Lord deals in absolutes,' after Hayden Chirstensen's Ankin Skywalker/Darth Vader character says, 'If you're not with me, you're my enemy,' Could also apply to a certain cave dwelling raghead with a propensity to kill us en masse.

I'm trying to reserve judgement until I see it for myself.
Ill probably just go to the afternoon discount matinee to keep as little of my money as possible from going to the Dims.
To: TADSLOS
But the mainstream media isn't worried about that story.
In the Ridley Scott bomb 'Kingdom of Heaven' they are the heroes!
