Dear Mr. George Lucas,
May. 24th, 2005 08:52 amI realize that homoerotic subtext is the new Easter Egg hunt for fangirls. That doesn't make it okay to hang the whole movies' character development on the screen chemistry of your two male leads. I am a StarWars fangirl, and I liked the movie, but you still get no love. Not that it's hard for anyone, anyone, to have zingy sexual undercurrents with Ewan MacGregor, but Natalie Portman is a good actress and her scenes with Hayden Christensen should have had better, more sensuous direction.
And better music. Wake up, John Williams. Quit resting on your laurels, and make us some new music in the same tone. Don't just do variations on a theme. You aren't Pachabel, and hearing the same theme for every hard decision is getting old.
And why? I realize that changing times call for changing directorial views, but really, are you going to re-re-release Return of the Jedi with an "updated scene" where Vader says instead, "*hoooo-paaah* Space incest is so 70's, my son. Come to the Gay Side of the Force." Jesus, Georgie-boy. You could have at least made the kid passably bisexual. How hard would it have been?
