ID4 Syndrome (Score:2)

I definitely see your point about the ID4 syndrome. I think that the syndrome may taint the Star Wars prequels as well...
Hmmmm, I wonder if Annakin is going to be able to resist the dark side of the force. I wonder if that Senator guy is really bad.

I guess the prequels are saved somewhat by the fact that they are explaining how things came to be the way they are; but with such knowledge of the future the plot just loses its edge somehow. Life must be hard being if you are Harry Seldon [slawcio.com] or Muad'dib [caveofbirds.com].
