Yes, today is Star Wars fun day.
People, libraries, and so many others have fun by dressing and displaying books and movies of the epic series that spans almost three generations.
I made my first Star Wars fandom trip when I was six months old. My mother told me that I loved
R2D2 and the
Jawas.
I revisited this epic moment when they first came out on VHS for the first time. Then again when I was in college. That was when the remastered editions came out in theater in the mid 90s.
I have come to have a love/hate relationship with
Jar Jar Binks from the first of the new trilogy. My favorite happens to be the third movie where we return to the beginning of the of the original trilogy with the birth of
Darth Vader. And with him, the return of the most awesome of voices, courtsey of James Earl Jones.
I loved
BB8. He was my absolute favorite character next to Rey.
Kylo Ren, on the other hand, has my deepest, darkest thoughts of how to relieve him of life with the most pain possible.

Working in the comic book business for several years, I grew to know tons of stuff about Star Wars without ever having seen one complete film! The new one was the first I've seen beginning to end.
ReplyDeletei can't help love the classics though. imo, i think they are the bestest of the bunch.
DeleteI just saw the last movie on Sunday, and my sons were laughing at me - I guess I had too many questions!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I feel a disturbance in the force - Trump will be a choice in November!
May the Force be with us all!
