A debate I have had with my friends and would like some outside opinions. Can you say you are a star wars fan and own the movies without owning spaceballs?

What about the Star Wars Christmas special? What about the Family Guy Star Wars spoofs? What about all the extended universe books and comics? Yeah, no, Spaceballs is canon for all true fans. And Robin Hood fans must love Men in Tights. There is no Mary Shelley without Young Frankenstein. Bram Stoker readers can't get stoked without Dead and Loving It.  |

Selfish passion is unquenching.
What strength have you when you are a slave to your passions?
What power without strength of character?
To self centered rage, you will be chained.
The dark side is no victory.
The long path to peace is through balanced emotions.
The first step to gaining knowledge is recognizing your own ignorance.
Serenity is patient, not passionate satisfaction.
Find harmony by understanding chaos.
Become one with the force, which will never die.

Of course you can...its rare to be sure and you are missing out on a piece of comedy gold...but absolutely can you be a star wars fan without spaceballs.

You absolutely can. Comedy is an especially divisive genre, so Spaceballs isn't for everyone. Now, if someone didn't like Spaceballs and Star Wars...get a rope! |

Sure you can. By that, I mean other people, because I have Spaceballs on Blu-Ray.  |

You of course mean in the same way that I don't 'own' any SW movies... And, by that, I mean I don't own The Rights To... A debate I have had with my friends and would like some outside opinions. Can you say you are a star wars fan and own the movies without owning spaceballs?
Sure, you can still be a Star Wars fan without having a copy of Spaceballs... Though why you wouldn't want a copy of Spaceballs, I don't know. Sure you can. By that, I mean other people, because I have Spaceballs on Blu-Ray. OMG, I need this... Spaceballs on Blu-Ray? I have a new quest.... finding this Blu-Ray. |

Nope. I also haven't seen Spaceballs yet. . . |

 Folks, for just pennies a day, you can help sponsor a fan in desperate need of Star Wars. Won't you help Darth Calon?

It's ok, I still haven't seen The Force Awakens. Come to think of it, since the house fire, I no longer own them either. Which sucks because I had an original (not updated/upgraded) set of the original trilogy on vhs.... Nope. I also haven't seen Spaceballs yet. . .
You should, it's very funny. |

You only live once. Wrong.
You only die once. You live every moment of your life.
The question is, are you alive, and living your life? Or just here, and watching your life go by?
------------------------------------------------------------------
I am the bone of my sword
Steel is my body and fire is my blood
I have created over a thousand blades
Unknown to death
Nor known to life
Have withstood pain to create many weapons
Yet those hands will never hold anything
So, as I pray, Unlimited Blade Works.

Haven't got around to either. Unless you count TFA on Netflix. Folks, for just pennies a day, you can help sponsor a fan in desperate need of Star Wars. Won't you help Darth Calon? Finances aren't the problem. I've seen them all, and besides ROTS, I don't feel like watching them more than other movies/shows I haven't seen. It's ok, I still haven't seen The Force Awakens.
Come to think of it, since the house fire, I no longer own them either. Which sucks because I had an original (not updated/upgraded) set of the original trilogy on vhs....

You call yourself a Star Wars fan when you haven't seen them all?!? Why haven't you seen it yet?! I will watch it someday. |
