You have been caught in the same trap, Return ToHades, in the same trap... Open your mind and think wider. LONG TIME AGO from which perspective? From our days perspective? Who told you so? It is someone unknown from the future who is telling us the Star Wars story and it is the past from his perspective. Star Wars is so perfect, true and real up to microscopic elements... And as soon as future always unclear the story could not be told like futuristic fiction, it will be unfair and destroy the mystery and our trust. (I am obsessed Star Wars fan also)

Ah I hope Insider does forgive us for spamming a Tatu thread with Star Wars, but I could not help myself.
I think Rosanna has hit the nail on this one here. The beauty of the first Star Wars movies was the passionate involvement of George Lucas. He had limited resources, people did not believe in his vision. However, he was a man with a dream and he put his heart and soul into making it. That is why the first movies had a story with emotions, the characters seemed to have so much more life. You felt for them, you remember their lines, the scenes are imprinted in your mind.

The recent movies lacked that soul. He was already a successful movie maker who had fulfilled his dream. It seems that this time around he focused more on the cool special effects and all the nifty technology he had readily available. He was presenting technology not a story.

The only reason I watched the recent ones was because I loved Star Wars and wanted to see the story of Darth Vader. I am disappointed as I wanted a story I could feel, but that was not to be. However, Revenge of the Sith did redeem the new ones a slight bit. While it comes nowhere close to the original some sequences were well executed emotionally too.

It makes you realize that technology, special effects, massive budgets and big names are not what that matters. What matters is the people behind it, the effort and emotions the put in. You know I think that is what makes Tatu stand out for me, they believe in what they are making. They want to convey a message an emotion. They don't focus on fake glossed up glitzy products that just look good but are hollow internally - the kind that is just a product no soul to it. They have their vision and work on fulfilling.

Somewhere down the line over the years I think our world has lost interest in the emotions and story behind things and are satisfied with only the external glossed up product.

Anyway speaking of Princess Leia photoshoot - I might have people raise eyebrows and give me strange looks for it. But I would love to see Yulia dressed as Luke. It would be sort of a fulfillment of my age old Luke & Leia twincest fantasy.
