The movie sucked. It sucked rocks. It sucked big hairy rocks.

Now the pre-[INSERT MID-WINTER CELEBRATION HERE] commercial hype has begun, and guess what? The spinoff toys suck too! You’d think two decades after the originals they’d come up with some new and interesting toy ideas. But they didn’t. The toys suck.

Hmm… Interesting rant. If you’re just pissed off, this should me in the Pit.

If you want to argue the merits of the film, it should be in Great Debates.

I suppose it is Mundane and Pointless, but you’ll get more of a response in which ever forum is appropriate.

At any rate, it’s none of my damn business where you post.

Just trying to help,  
John

Can’t speak for the quality of the toys, because I am an adult. But Star Wars 1 kicked ass!
