Public Service Annoucement

This has nothing to do with the Church per se. It is, however, to preserve the common good to the greatest extent possible. George Lucas is beginning to advertise the re-release of The Phantom Menace in 3-D format. It is currently scheduled for February 10.


You may be tempted to go see this movie. Flee from that temptation! Do not give this man any more of your money! Yes, I'm sure it would be a hardy penance, but that isn't worth making Lucas any richer. If you seek an alternate penance, try a cilice or hairshirt.

DO NOT GIVE THIS MAN ANY MORE OF YOUR MONEY!

Care to expand on this post? I'm not familiar with the movie in question, but your request seems more to do with envy over money...

I did ask for the original star wars trilogy on Bluray for Christmas and received it. I specifically didn't ask for the one with all 6 movies as really the new movies sucked (save for the last one).

Nothing so complicated, cliff. I am simply of the opinion that making horrible movies (including Revenge of the Sith, haskovec) should not be rewarded. Lucas made horrible movies and destroyed a wonderful mythos in the process. People shouldn't pay him for that.
