People are always amazed when I say I don't like Star Wars. And I don't.
To me it's an overtly cliched rags-to-riches tale of small boy who grows up to defeat a mighty empire. Albeit with sci-fi trappings. But everyone knows the story yadda yadda yadda thanks to mass media culture.
I did go see the Special Edition at the cinema once in 1997, and kept wishing for the fast-forward button. It's so damn slow!
