Lucas show Star War in France first?
Wed May 18, 2005 11:55 am
WTF? Why would George Lucas give France a showing of Star Wars before America? I'm not bashing France, I'm just annoyed that he premiered the movie someplace other than the US. I feel kinda betrayed.

maybe george thinks the frogs are unintelligent enough to bring in a camcorder and tape the damn thing so it would get an early release.

Perhaps because this time there's an actual plot in the movie, so he's targeting a different audience.

maybe it is because Cannes is in France? Just a shot at it here....

500 bucks? Jeez.
I'll wait an hour in line and that's how far I'm willing to go.
Same as in 1977, now that I think about it.

Chacal, I'm not irritated because it's France, I'd be irritated if he showed it to Holland, Zimbabwe, or the Czech Republic first. I just feel that he owes the American audience first viewing of it.
As for your implication that he is targeting a different audience because it has a plot, very nice of you. If you were joking, sorry if I took it wrong, but if you implying that Americans are dumb and not worthy of a movie with a plot, then I have a bone to pick with you.

He could be in some serious trouble if I ever figure out exactly what the f*** it means to 'pick a bone' with someone

LOL, did you ever see 'Triump the Insult Dog' when he hung with all the people waiting in line for the movie? He went up to a guy with a Darth Vader suit, pointed to the buttons on his chest and said "Which one these button calls your parents and gets them to come and pick you up"?
