[QUOTE="Mr. Tie, post: 464641, member: 4388"] I am not a hermit at all, although I wish I could be one like Obi Wan Kenobi :lol: You don't know me personally, so don't offend me in this way, please... Let me get one thing clear: where I live children really don't care about Star Wars at all. I visit a lot of local toy shops and the stuff doesn't sell. I have a young nephew who had watched TFA with his friends, but after seeing the movie they didn't care anymore and left the franchise for what it is. I understand that some of you guys don't want to believe any of this and I think it is a regional phenomenon in my case. So hey, I don't share your experience on this matter. I also don't share the opinion that SW is "one of the greatest cultural phenomenons in movie history", because it isn't :shock: Like for example Lord of the Rings is just a story about the battle between good and evil. SW is a mixture of a Buck Rogers rip off with some historical WW2 battles. Dark Side being nazis of course, Japanese influences (yes, the sabers) and some funny droids to make it go smooth. I like it, yes I really do, and I had hoped it would have ended with only just the OT. Why? Because more is often really less... George Lucas made this moment in time a classic and that is how I experience it. I don't give a **** about next generations. You don't want to watch Back to the Future number 4 with dry eyes, do you?
