What do your family memebers think about Star Wars? My sister went to see the movies but she isn't really a fanatic like me. My brother likes Star Wars too. My mom went to see Epi.I with me and liked it but she doesn't really care to see any more. My dad won't even give Star Wars a chance. He thinks it's to Star Trek-like.

I doubt my parents even know what SW is, *YES THEY ARE ALIVE*. My wife isn't into that sort of stuff, but she'll watch it to please me smile My dogs love it, but I dunno about the stall animals! stick out tongue

I was wondering UBH,when you go to a movie like Star Wars do you watch it in German with captions or just German?

My sister really loves the movies but she doesn't have the same amount of knowledge as a true fanatic does. My mum is the same.
My girlfriend thinks the movies are okay but she prefers Star Trek.
As for my dad, he knows nothing. I reckon that he doesn't even know who Darth Vader is or how to hum the main theme tune to Star Wars. lol

My brother likes it a lot. My sister hates it, my father thinks it's kinds geeky and doesn't really give it the time of day. A few years ago we tried to get him to watch the Special edition, he wouldn't because "He saw the movie in 1977." My mom humors me about it, but its not her cup of tea. All these observations are coming from 3-5 years ago when I was in high school, my family and I aren't around enough to ever talk star wars.

So basicly all of our fathers hate Star Wars.

My parents like the movies okay but my dad really likes old star trek. My sister can take them or leave them, but my brother is enough of a junkie that I know he would love this forum, but the hosehead can't get around to buying a pc and he's 49 freakin years old. He and I saw all the special editions at the theatre together and we went to see TPM twice together at the theatre also. He knows a lot of stuff, but has not seen the OT as many times as I have. I think it has to activate a certain area of your brain that remains forever untouched in most peoples minds. And those people will never understand the constant obsessions we have with the whole saga. BOY DO I FEEL SORRY FOR THEM! stick out tongue

I hate to break the streak but my dad is the one who turned me on to SW. I wasn't born when the OT came out(I am only 1cool and when I was a kid he showed me them and I was hooked. Of course, my mom and two sisters hate them.

Darth Daft
You're only 10? That's cool. You sound very mature for your age. And you're a much wiser man that I am. I foresee you will become a great Jedi Knight.

Sorry DD, I am eighteen, I don't know how that smile face came up there. Sorry to disappoint you but I like to still think I'm very mature smile

theEviljedi
Darn,I'm still the youngest.

Dim
Well, I don't think my parents ever paid attention to SW...or saw them. (I don't ever remember them going to the movies) And my brother(35) pretty much hates Science Fiction...

Gundark
Isn't that frustrating ? They just don't know what they're missing. Love the snow !!

theEviljedi
Your brother is a lot older than you Dim. Did he pick on you as a kid?

Dim
Yep, what good are big brothers if they don't torture you on a daily basis? He feels very guilty about it now though big grin

Gundark
My brother is 12 years older than me and he STILL picks on me constantly. But I can still run faster. evil face

theEviljedi
My 22 yr. old brother picks on me a lot too. I on the other hand pick on my 20 yr. old sister.

Dim
I just punish my brother by bringing up his love life...

Gundark
I punish my brother by putting olives in his coffee when he isn't looking. I like to think of them as

Dim
Well, that's just nasty. laughing out loud

Gundark
As an instant martini. Don't know what happened to my last sentence. Guess that was a dangling participle. (Heavy on english composition there) stick out tongue
