Arianna, you are right: I loathe Wesley Crusher, not Wil Wheaton. Wheaton actually seems like a decent guy. He's got his own geek-heavy blog, so that's a good sign!

Aw, I do hope it’s not Wil Wheaton that you hate, it’s just Wesley! :) Well, okay, I don’t know him in anything beyond Stand By Me, but that is one of my all-time favorite movies. But, from what I hear about SW:TNG (I’ve never actually seen it), it is completely understandable that you are far from a fan of his character there. From what I’ve read, Wheaton wasn’t a big fan of the character, himself. Isn’t that right? :)

I’m a big Star Wars fan, but I agree that it was not the best crafted movie. George Lucas is great at coming up with stories, but not writing scripts. Also, the best George Lucas movies are those not directed by him either.

I hate the Ewoks almost as much as I hate Wesley Crusher. Almost.

Thanks for the heads-up on the feed. I’ve been having trouble with Blogger, including the fact that the feed gets published in the wrong place. I’ll be switching to WordPress in the next week or so, complete with fanfare in the old location announcing the new url and feed information.

I totally agree that the newer ones suck. And, the Ewoks were too fluffy. But the original! Oh, goodness. Han Solo. Adventure in the high vacuum. The Force.

It was the beginning of an era. Who cares about dialogue. It's show, don't tell, anyway, right?

Right?
