Vebber and Gould's "Fifty Reasons Why Jedi Sucks"---A Rebuttal (Pt. 5)

In Ted Edwards' "The Unauthorized Star Wars Compendium" (Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1999), Dan Vebber and Dana Gould present a nearly-blasphemous, irreverent, irrelevant, list of fifty "reasons" why George Lucas' cinematic masterpiece "Return of the Jedi," as they say, "sucked." They begin with a brief essay filled with angst and bitterness against ROTJ and conclude, "There are plenty of fans who argue that by the mere fact of its being part of the trilogy, Jedi should be above criticism.

Author Comments:
