This guy (?) either seriously needs to get laid, or he is bitter because Lucas stole an idea this dude stashed away in his top drawer claiming it was too far ahead of its time.

I like Orson Scott Card. Too bad he completely missed the point of the clone army.

Genetically engineering clones isn't science fiction? Odd, I thought it was! As far the rest of the series: robots, aliens, laser blasters, and the like all qualify to make them Sci-fi movies. But I'm guessing you consider them fantasy, which, in terms of marketing, is linked together with sci-fi and that is why you will, so many times in bookstores, see a Sci-fi/Fantasy section instead of two separate sections.

Pay attention to the damn film. Jeez, what does any of this have to do with Palpatine creating a clone army as part of his plan for galactic domination? Nothing.

I don't care who says the movie was bad. I liked it. Period. Orson Scott Card is no god of taste.

OH MY GOD!!!! SOMEONE HAS AN OPINION!!!
Therefore, mine must now change.
AOTC was crap. TPM was crap...why stop there? ROTJ was crap. ESB was crap. ANH was crap.
Oh, and someone told me today that the Bible was hogwash...so the Bible is crap. Someone said the same thing about the Korran. It's crap. I heard the Egyptian heiroglyphs on the Sphinx's butt was crap too.
Thank god we can't think for ourselves. Imagine how difficult it would be to know what we're supposed to do, see and think?!?!

Exactly.
Your opinion, or MY opinion, is just as good as some science fiction

*sigh*
In AOTC, isn't the whole point that it IS (or, presumably, soon WILL be) a 'nightmarish scenario'??
Mr. Card seems to have missed the boat.
I haven't read any of his books... are they any good?

Yeah, but excessively moralistic, seeing as how Card is a Mormon. 'Seventh Son' and 'Red Prophet' appear to be inspired by the life of Joseph Smith.
