    There was a star wars movie with this in the plotline at some point? He lost me after New Hope, and upon re-watching New Hope I realize that was because I got older than 7.

        Someone has a different opinion and that is “edgy” to you? You kissing Lucas ass for a reason?

        I really did like it when it came out, and then it was downhill from there. Re-watching as an adult, does not hold up well.

          It’s not the opinion that’s edgy, it’s the context. Imagine you’re at a casual gathering and someone made this joke and everyone started joking about star wars.

          Does it help the conversation or anyone’s enjoyment to jump in with a “oh, I didn’t like those at all. They’re pretty dumb.” ?

            Star Wars fans are the worst.

            Context? Seriously?

            I didn’t reply to any comment, I commented on the post, which is in Political Memes.

            If this were a Star Wars community it would be inappropriate, but here?

            Joke to me is Lucas actually got one thing right. Finally. Couldn’t write dialog to save his life, which is why his wife did it.

              Yes, it’s a star wars joke in political memes.

              And while everyone else is joking around, having a good time you decided that a worthwhile contribution would be to announce that you don’t like Star Wars because you aren’t a child?

              Maybe you really don’t get social cues. Or you’ve decided to be unpleasant for no reason. I dunno, it seems like you came in, wanted to pick a fight and then whine when people point it out. It’s weird way to decide to be and more than a little sad, especially for a grown ass adult.

                Please. I have no idea what anyone else was saying, nor did I care.

                I was laughing at Lucas because he’s a clown.

                YOU decided to take offense and act like it is important some how.

                Social cues… Like being a jerk to me for no reason except you like a movie?

                Talk about sad, and acting like a child.

      you know what’s fun? i’ve spent the last sixteen years slowly taking in every star wars property with my wife. because she loves star wars and i love science fiction. the stuff for adults, the stuff for kids, the wookiee porn christmas special, all of it. why? because cinema doesn’t have to just be for smelling your own farts. it can be for enjoying and analyzing.

      we’re excited for the maul series coming out, just because we love maul and the actor who plays him. we have high hopes!

        Its amusing that people need to defend star wars in a political meme community. Its a joke on a joke. A hat on a hat.

        Like whatever you want, you guys take it way too seriously.
