Ok, One more NSync Story

The following is reprinted from TheForce.net The JAM Movies editorial appears to be taken down.

JAM Movies takes on the news of N'Sync with a bit of humor. They believe George Lucas has totally lost it.

Then, as if to reinforce his insanity, Lucas went and titled Episode II "Attack of the Clones." Gee willikers, he said, it sounds just like the old movie serials of my misspent youth down at the Bijou eating penny candy and getting touched by the strange man in the raincoat who always sat in the back.

That's great, George, but I don't force my stupid childhood nostalgia upon anybody except the people on eBay who sell me old Micronauts toys. And they're getting paid, so I don't think they mind.

I guess the thing that troubles me is if the 'N Sync boys are actually recognizable in whatever scene they appear in, it'll snap the illusion of the movie like an old man with osteoporosis falling down a flight of stairs, and pull viewers out of the film faster than if Jar Jar went into the cantina and said, "Mesa want a Johnnie Walker and Coke on the rocks! Now turnsa on the Lakers game, puhweeze!"

I mean, imagine a tense, climactic battle scene between Obi-Wan and Darth Whozit, and then suddenly you see a smirking, Jedi-robed Joey Fatone in the background. The sound inside your head of a million needles being dragged across a million records would be matched only by the blood-curdling scream of horror coming from your (and by that, I mean my) lips. Not even calling him "Joey Fat One" can soothe that kind of mental scarring, friends.
