Revenge not so Sweet

On our humble little planet, a long time ago, medieval thinkers whiled away entire lifetimes in earnest debate over how many angels could fit on the head of a pin. So much more enlightened, we ponder Star Wars. And ponder and ponder. Twenty-eight years of scrutiny and counting, a generational span devoted to grappling with that overwhelming question of our age: Did Star Wars spark the birth of cinema, or spell its death?
Sides have been chosen, volumes have been written, blood has been spilled, but the only certainty is that the pop force is still with us. To that, with the release of Episode III Revenge of the Sith, we can now add the near-certainty that the saga is complete. Translation: The greatest story ever has finally been told. Or, if you prefer, the damn thing has come to its merciful end.
