We don't want to make too much of this but we wonder: MR. STAR WARS just came out with a new animation, and it's dying at the B. O. We gather He is deeply unpopular, first, for being a control phreak and trying to strangle His fans, and second for wasting so much of the public's time and money with SPACE JUNK; His opus maximus is as much a period piece as disco. If this new masterpiece is dying because of its provenance this portends very serious trouble for the movee biz; the fans may now be armed for revenge, and they have many targets; and while MR. STAR WARS tops the list the TENTPOLES represent bull's eyes for an angry audience to aim its arrows at, especially as they represent a cumulative hundreds of recyclings. Most likely they'll do their land-office business but perhaps the public will finally realize it's being sold property around Love Canal.
