As a kid I was a trekie because Momma watched it as.much.as.possible. The old Kirk versions, Next Generation, Voyager and even Deep Space Nine. I always wanted to be Captain Kathryn Janeway.
We watched the old movies and treked to the theater to watch new ones. (pun intended) I tried to watch Enterprise but I only saw Dr. Sam Beckett from Quantum Leap and not Captain Jonathan Archer.
With all my Star traveling through trek world I had never watched Star Wars…much to my sci-fi Hunni’s dismay. He promptly required me to watch the first three…or as I’ve now been educated, Episodes 4, 5, and 6.
Apparently the Star Wars movies I slept through watched with Momma and my brother were episodes 1, 2 and 3…my bad. I most of them like this.
I do remember JarJar Binks but that’s not sufficient for the wife of a Star Wars fanatic…dude owns all the books. Hence #70.
In our little bit o’ down time we took the time to watch the first three…oops I mean 4, 5, and 6. I made a few observations on the war of the stars.
Understanding the limited special effects of the late seventies explains why this is the first movie made. Desert, desert and lots of desert makes me think of dessert, dessert and lots of dessert. And oh princess you are such a rebel.
Note to us newbies: Hans Solo’s ship is named the Millennium Falcon. I learned from Ace of Cakes.
How did James Earl Jones gets so skinny…oh wait, it’s not really him. He’s not as funny as Lord Dark Helmet. Neither is Yoda. People talking like Yoda are funnier than Yoda himself.
(source)Note: The title is NOT Return of the Jedi. They are returning after episode 4 but the actual title is the Empire Strikes Back. Don’t ask what the empire is…it shows you don’t remember the first one…ugh, Episode 4.
Hans Solo is insecure?! The arrogant guy thing is an act. Oh and the “Luke I am your father” scene is over rated. Luke already knew. Oh and Ewoks are cute teddy-bear like creatures similar to Peanut.
Note: Ewoks are not the same as Gizmo from Gremlins.
They are both cute and make silly noises but that’s about it. Ewoks don’t turn into scary things when wet.
My dad used to watch Next Generation religiously. I always wanted to be Deanna Troi. I just liked her purple uniform and her hair. And her dreamy boy toy.
