Why Fark, Drudge and Huffington when you can Buzz!?This week, Hollywood Newsroom broke the story about LucasFilms, Warner Bros. who the f&ckever, forcing AICN to take down the “Harry Knowles Hates The Clone Wars” review. Here’s Moriarty’s response, AND, his FINAL STAR WARS POST! (right, give us a week)
The point is, I’ve written about STAR WARS for almost ten years here at the site, and I’ve been thinking about it nonstop as a fan for thirty-one years. And I think it’s time to stop. You did it, Mr. Lucas. You finally broke me of the habit. The embargo that you told Warner Bros. to enforce on our site, the ONLY SITE OR MEDIA OUTLET ANYWHERE THAT WAS HELD TO THAT EMBARGO DATE, is a very clear signal. You don’t want me to write about STAR WARS. And it may have taken me this long to realize that it’s not just that you don’t want me to spoil secrets… you don’t want me to write about it AT ALL… but I’ve finally taken the hint. - Moriarty, from AICN
