Thanks to Chris for pointing out this excellent critique by Sci-Fi author David Brin of the Star Wars universe.

I thought the comparison between Star Trek and Star Wars was very interesting. It is hard to say who has the most devoted fan club.

That was sad... It is a movie, who cares. The same goes for all the star wars lovers out there that wait in line for a month for a ticket. Dudes get a life. Its a movie, an entertaining, badly acted and badly written movie. I love star wars its a great series I read the books etc but it was just entertainment not something to devote my life 2.

having spent quite a bit of time studying film [formally] and even more studying classical literature, i'm afraid i came away from the article feeling brin just doesn't understand what he's talking about. it's always easiest to shoot at the big targets

I''d be more interested to see if David Brin''s questions are better answered by AOTC.
