Maintaining ones integrity, as a writer, as a critic, is often difficult. How does one take something that one is, quite frankly, a fan-boy geek about, and objectively view it as a work of art and then comment on said work in a fair and impartial manner? I think the answer lies in viewing said work with detachment from one’s own fandom or obsession. One way to encourage detachment is exposure. To successfully densensitize oneself from emotional attachment, continual exposure, prehaps even over-exposure, is neccesary.

In other words, I think I need to see Episode II a few more times.

(Yippeeee!)
