Wait... Does that mean you don't know who Admiral Ackbar is? Oh, I’ve known him for a while now. I looked him up when you crazy kids first started posting. I’ll definitely let you know when Star Wars comes in and I watch it. Did you ever come across the Ackbars on the old IMDb? When we were in our full glory there were over a dozen of us!

Unfortunately, I was only on the IMDb boards for a few months, mostly looking for phones that didn’t phone and ghostly Sleuth singers, before they shut down. So, yes, I should have written, “I looked him up when I first talked to you crazy kids”!

NalkarjI was dragged kicking and screaming to see Star Wars In the theater on a BIG screen soon after it opened. Knew nothing about it other than it was a "space movie" with a lot of flying and shooting (ugh). Pleasantly surprised at the story and then looky who turns up totally unexpected as Obi-Wan ! So I leans over the and QUIETLY WHISPER "OK if he's in this ~~ it's gotta be OK .... and it was / is.
Old ones only. The prequels were beyond my si-fi tolerance (sorry ackbars and company !) and never even tried the afters.

coldenhaulfield, back in the day I saw it in the theater that one time … BIG screen, pre-multiplex-little-bitty screens and then once at a revival several years later on an even BIGGER screen at one of those restored movie palaces. The later ones, I only remember seeing via tapes as am not really big on sci-fi. Star Wars (the original three) I like for the simpler story and the characters and actors. That may be why I don't care for the pre-and post-quells. I don't really know who the people are and cannot relate to them as I could in the first "set".

I think there's plenty of people who feel that way about the OT and successive films.

No. No. No, my friend. It's only in May because it's a pun on the phrase " May the Force Be with you" >>>> May the 4th be with you. >>> May 4th = Star Wars Day

It's only in May because it's a pun on the phrase " May the Force Be with you" >>>> May the 4th be with you. >>> May 4th = Star Wars Day Bat hangs head in abject shame and regrets the slowness of the understanding, Bat feels somewhat like Jar-Jar Binks usually ought to feel but does not. Bat is usually not quite this dense when it comes to punning but for some reason was focused on the 4th and not the May. Bat shall try to do better in the future and thanks you for your kind and patient reply. With your people skills, it is no wonder you achieved the rank of Admiral.
