Why do you like Star Wars so much?

[Rapine]

BRILLIANT!!!

Awesome story LK!!!  Thanks so much for sharing.  GREAT mental pic while I have my first coffee.  

-1 for that right there.

I didn't care for the prequels much either, but was kind of glad that the story was being told at least.  Yes, ROTS is my favourite one out them as well.  Anakin falling is pretty cool.  

Oh!  The Vader scene in R1?!  NERDGASM!!  I "SQUEEED" like a little girl.


Hey! Emerald Manticore!  That was my first saber too!  Another -1 for that.


-1 to Logos for teeth impressions on your inner cheek.  Good on ya.

Glad I could entertain. And thanks

Every Darksider squeed and had a nerdgasm. I just took it to the next level by tearing up.
And that is great

Such a fantastic saber! What was your first color on it? I had it set to PO tho it's now a proper red.

Still proud of you Logos! Have another -1 Gold star

I ordered it in BR, but set the slider to around 80% when I got it.  Makes a nice dark red.

I also played around with flicker, so that looks about right now too.  Oh, and I got RGBW as well, so a nice, white FoC.

Swapped out for a Renegade SE small pommel, and a Dark Manitcore emitter.  Blackstar font. BOOM!  Dark Manticore.

LAK, my opinions echo yours, almost movie-for-movie.  Absolutely awesome anecdote!  Wonderful read and I could empathize with SO much

LOL I LOVE that meme    Thanks LR

Not just Darksiders!  That was--bar none--my favorite part of Rogue 1 (and I liked that movie more than any other SW movie since the OT) 

[Rapine]

Hey just sharing the love.   Pay it forward, and all that, and like I mentioned, this is a great way to enjoy my (second now) coffee this morning. 

I was up late, and slept WAY late.

+1 to you, Dutch.

Lady Agana Kath - I'm Lightside through and through, and I don't mind admitting that I nearly leapt out of my seat at *that* Vader scene.

That was the Vader I had been waiting basically my whole life to see. It was glorious.

[Lady Agana Kath]

Yes, it was.

I saw part of ROTJ on TV I don’t even remember how long ago and shortly after I went on a weird no sci-fi stint (I don’t know what I was thinking! Sci-Fi is Life!). Then we went on a trip to a relative’s house when I was 8. I got SO bored; I started poking around the house and found one of the Corellian Trilogy books. Sucked me right in. It took me a long time to find another copy so I could finish it. I’m sure that if you asked my classmates what they remember about me from 7th to 12th grade they’d say something along the lines of a short brunette twig with a Star Wars book for face. I also “borrowed” my brother-in-law’s OT VHS box set until I got my own copy on DVD. I had it so long that he forgot it was his.

[Rapine]

HA! Right on Lady Mineva.

Yeah, I gave up on sci-fi there for a bit as well.  Through my twenties, real life reigned.  

I haven't gotten into too many books...I keep being distracted by shiny things...lol

I am about half way through Darth Plagueis right now though.  I have been for months.

Thanks so much for sharing that.  It really is neat to picture all of you guys being young, geeky SW fans - like I was.

1985, i am 8 ... for a reason i do not remember, a little theater played "La Guerre des Etoiles", Star Wars : A new hope in French . My teacher did not make class an afternoon and we went to watch it ...

... and it was like a dream ... and then, there were questions ... many many questions!!! What after? And Before? Who is this princess? Clone wars? Republic? an emperor? .......

I asked my parents and they bought the trilogy ... I do not know how many times i watched the three movies ... all what i love regarding to entertainment was in this three movies ...
 
But i needed more ... By the time, i had many books and comics, i played "Star Wars D6" table top RPG and our first campaign was our own version of Rogue One

An then, there was TPM ... and, sorry to say that, i was in a dream again ... I LOVED THAT ... Ok, many many bad technical problems and Jar Jar ... but we saw Planets ... we saw a Jedi Order ... we saw, at last, the universe we imagined ... and the fight Maul/Kenobi/Jin with the sanscrit music ...  

Honestly, i really really love Ep. 1 - 3 ...

And Lucasfilm was sold to Disney with the promise of more movies ... Happy i was!!!

But they communicate about the reboot of the EU ... and all what i read (The twins, the red hear woman with the violet saber ....) was sent to the void ...

Unfortunately, TFA came and i was more than disappointed as this "movie" was (put the bad word you want here)  ... but Rogue One was a blast to me ... the Vader scene ... WOW .... And i spend a good time with TLJ ... so i want to be optimistic ...


Since 1985, Star Wars is part of me

[Rapine]

Most excellent Seb.

HA! "La Guerre des Etoiles"!  I had that soundtrack.

Very cool. You totally took me there.  

Yes, for all the dissing the prequels take, you gotta like that Maul fight scene, and you're right, Jedi Council was cool.  The Falcon scene with Finn and Rey in TFA was good.   "WOO!"   That whole Finn and Poe steal a TIE fighter part is good too.  "Wow! This thing really moves!"  HA!


Thanks for sharing man.

Thanks

And about "La Guerre des Etoiles" ... fun fact: I think that nobody believed in this movie here in 1977 and, as a consequence, the dubbed version of the movie was (and remain) catastrophic ... a shame ... 

[Rapine]

Yeah - anytime original cast member voices get dubbed is a travesty.

I agree ... but when it is seriously done it is acceptable ...

The top is actor like Christopher Lee of actress like Jodie Foster, Diane Kruger or Emma Thompson who can dub themselves in several languages
