You speak the complete truth, with one exception. The fact they made the single most badass character in absolutely anything ever, being vader, into a whiny little bitch. What he did, as far as betraying everything he was brought up to believe in to save his missus is all very admirable, even though i'd of been more than happy to get rid of her atrocious acting skills, but come on, did George Lucas REALLY have to make Vader into a whining emo?

Star wars is the absolute tits, even with that above rant.
