Entertainment Weakly Lures Suckers With TESB Cover

The folks at starwars.com have no pride. After over 10 years' worth of trashing all things Star Wars, trashing George Lucas, giving all of the prequel films bad reviews, and rewarding the CW movie with an "F," EW publishes a tribute to TESB's 30th and starwars.com cheerfully promotes it. Remember when things were so bad between EW and Lucasfilm, EW apparently didn't get to go to a press screening of ROTS? Remember when EW claimed that a young boy thanking Lucas at Celebration III was a staged stunt? I do. All of that and more. I've refused to buy a single issue of that magazine since 2000 and this isn't going to change my mind now.

All of those rare pix? You can find them on the internet for free. There's even a Facebook page dedicated to rare vintage SW pictures. The book excerpt will be in "The Making of the Empire Strikes Back," which I'm sure many of you are going to buy anyway. As for the rest of it, who cares what some staffer at EW thinks of TESB? I already know it's the only SW movie they think is worth anything because they've said so over and over.

EW can kiss my butt.
