Sex and Star Wars

Now Revenge of the Sith is out it maybe time to pop on those Freudian glasses and watch the original Star Wars film:

By now, everyone's so familiar with the familiar song and dance about Star Wars being the Woodstock of our generation, about how Joseph Campbell and the power of myth powered the most comprehensive comparative religion fable rolled into one tell-all amazing sci-fi epic of epic proportions that you could probably just puke. The truth is, that crap just sells more tickets to pseudo-intellectuals who need to rationalize going for the eleventh time to see a movie about their most deeply rooted fear: impotence and premature ejaculation. Star Wars is one big cock tale about one and only one thing, the ability to get and keep it up all the way to the end.

Review from Metafilm

Warning: May frame images of a fondly remembered childhood film in a wholely unpleasant sexual nature.
