ooo, that's smooth.

I can't hear Therapy, 'cause the goog says it's too popular.

This is wonderful.  Please keep doing it.

I certainly wasn't nearly as cynical as a kid, I just wanted to get to the SPACELAZERS.  If you asked 12 year old me, I'd have told you Empire wasn't quite as good as the other ones since it was lacking a really big explosion at the end.

Also...  Somewhere there is a like, sizzlereel of my brother that I made for a birthday roast when I was 14ish? His onscreen antics aside, I narratated the shit out of the thing in my very best 14 year old Maltin impression.  He was clearly the greatest interviewer I knew of.

It is pretty interesting to track interactions with with franchise at both a cultural level and an individual one.
Like you have the Typical stuff like you and me, @Boter, but does anyone here remember reading on the TFN boards about the guy in Denmark or Norway or some foreign place (to my uneducated american ear holes) who couldn't get his parents to take him to the movies, his dad was falling asleep/yelling at the screen, and then he met this other kid who'd never seen any of the films at all but had all the toys and had an elaborate backstory about how the Emperor was Chewy's grandmother?

I was definitely smoking weed when I decided that it was strange to be furiously cutting the hair off my head and face as fast as it grew, and maybe actually I had no idea what I really looked like.  It was a very weird feeling.  Haven't been back to the barber since.  Caitlyn is teaching me to braid.

PS: BG I is my dad, I'm BG II.

IS it weird that the trailer cuts on Creepio's look to: DEATHSUN!!

?

Just asking.

Oh, wait, I thought that was a cross cut from TFA.  Deathsun indeed.

I'm not holdin' hope for this one.  I find it very interesting that they've replicated the production process so thoroughly, down to rehiring the writers and doing the director-musical-chairs with the "edgy" guy coming into to do #2, and bringing back the first guy for #3 midway through after picking someother dude.  I hope JJ isn't being asked to method his way into becoming GL.  Anyhoo, with them lining up RoS to Be Our Generations' ROTJ, I'm a little worried we're gonna get the JJ equivalent of Ewoks, which I guess in this case is a movie that plays like a mashup of Transformers, Memento, and a VideoCopilot.com ad. 

With lightsabers!

That said, Ima go seeee it.  But this is the last one I SWEAR.

This is the last Star Wars I watch until they hand the direction over to a woman, which I keep being disappointed by, but not doing anything about.
