   18 Oct 2007 ~ 10:08am Thrax In the original series, with the exception of Bones, all of them looked <i>roughly</i> the same age. Now you have a 20 year old sulu and a 40 year old Kirk.
   
   Dear Hollywood,
   
   I am here to tell you that prequels suck. We knew this when you green-lighted The Phantom Menace, but you were encouraged by its sales to produce more prequels in any way possible. At times you show willingness to abandon this sheer inanity, such in the form of the new Indiana Jones, but on the whole, your obscene love for horribly-recasted characters borders on the profane.
   
   Hollywood.
   
   Stop.
   
   Die,
   Robert

   Sulu does look a bit young, but +5 pts if they make him look older. *shrug*

   Are you addressing "Hollywood" or "George Lucas"? I'm pretty sure he was the only green light involved.
