Boycott Star Wars My younger cousins bought movie certificates ($5 admission ticket) several weeks ago. The cinema that sold them said that they could use the tickets for Star Wars two weeks after the initial Star Wars release. Well today they went to use those certificates and the movie place told them that 20th Century Fox/Lucas decided yesterday that they would have to wait at least EIGHT Weeks. Needless to say my cousins were very disappointed. The kicker is that Lucas/20th Century Fox repeatedly say that Star Wars isn't about making money, but about making kids happy. Well, if this is true why did they move the date back and why are my two cousins angry as hell? I say boycott the "ultimate" money/merchandise driven movie.
