fisch: Re: STAR WARS: EPISODE VII: Many Star Wars pre-production issues, an 'inadequate' central story which nobody would stamp off on, a problematic initial release date and an 'indecisive' director (J.J. Abrams) with the hardest gig in the industry. It's not going to be a cakewalk, but it will be a product shipping with the majority of its original parts. With the original stars (Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher) now almost old enough to be the grandparents of their original selves, I think that that's a bit of a stretch.

How does their age make it a stretch? If anything, it's a prerequisite for being "original," since the original movie itself is now, well... "old," as much as it pains me to say that. The original stars can't be as young as the movie. (Though I should also note they haven't officially been confirmed yet, either, though it certainly does look as though they'll be in it.)

Satire = The use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. And where in that definition does it cover, for example, sex jokes at the expense of Stephen Hawking and his having ALS? Stephen Hawking has admitted that, if in great pain, he may consider assisted suicide. Or "Task Manager", as he calls it. Insert "witty" retort by LeHan here.......
