Today's Webtip: Star Wars gone wrong

Yes, things can always get worse.

As the hype starts growing, a certain type of Star Wars fan is preparing for the worst. That type?

Anyone who spent decades waiting for the prequels.

Jaded fans who suffered through Jar Jar, allowed themselves to hope that something might top A New Hope, and did their best to ignore the abomination known as the Star Wars Christmas special.

As one of those fans, I really believed I had seen the worst. That there is no way any thing could sink lower, and thus I have dared to hope. I'm jumping on the hype train and riding it right through to the end.

Or, that's what I thought. And then I ran into this abomination someone, somewhere, thought would be a Very Good Idea.
