Allow me to start by making a rather dorky connect-the-dots between two landmark cultural institutions of our key demographic: [[Weezer]] and [[Star Wars]]. Check it out: Weezer's self-titled return from hibernation (colloquially known as [[The Green Album]]) was The Phantom Menace of indie rock. Both sci-fi epic and alt-rock record were long-awaited events that had even the most jaded hipster hopping around like a small child with a full bladder. However, reactions to Star Wars: Episode One and Weezer: Episode Three were predominantly (and in some cases, absurdly) negative, despite small pockets of supporters slinging the old "just turn your brain off and have fun" argument.
