What is your Star Wars?

No, I not talking about single phrase answers, like “Original Trilogy”.
I mean the sights and sounds that made your Star Wars.
For me it’s blue/magenta color correction, slightly pixilated subtitles, Victory Celebration, the wait and anticipation for the next episode of Clone Wares. A deep hatred for Disney, the steady realization The Force Awakens was crap, and my discovery of Heir to the Empire…
Yeah, what is your Star Wars?

I grew up on the 2004 DvD’s. I don’t understand how that makes me a troll.

So did I. It doesn’t. Your posts do.

^Don’t forget the signature.

The signature isn’t true?

Expanded Universe: lol wat

They added Grand Admiral Thrawn to a television series, and are also releasing a new book by the original author of Heir to the Empire, a book you seem to like.

Nostalgia: originaltrilogyoriginaltrilogyoriginaltrilogyoriginaltrilogyoriginaltrilogyoriginaltrilogy

Maybe because most paying, adult moviegoers remember it the most and have the most nostalgia for it?

Prequel Trilogy: lol wat

Clone Army, the Sith, and Balence in the Force were mentioned in TFA, which is 50 years after the prequels. Pretty good considering how forgetful people seem to be of the events of the PT in the OT (like how no one remembers the Jedi that were spread across the galaxy by the thousands).
Mustafar was in Rogue One, along with Bail Organa, Coruscant, Turbo Tanks, and probably more Prequel references that I didn’t notice.

Worldbuilding: lol wat

New planets, a non-planet outpost in Rogue One (something I believe has not been seen before in a SW movie), Lor San Tekka’s Church of the Force, the Guardians of the Whills, an extremist rebel sect against the main Rebellion, worlds seem pretty well built to me.

So did I. It doesn’t. Your posts do.

Sigh. I think what your getting at is that, I’m trying to provoke you into some sort of discourse.
No. I’m wondering what makes Star Wars special for you. Maybe the smell of popcorn from the theater you went to first see it in. The version you first saw. Maybe the order you saw them. I don’t know. Just the small details that make you nostalgic.

My Star Wars is an orange/green color palette, the crispest 1080p subtitles you’ve ever seen, Yub Nub, ambivalence towards TCW. An unconditional love for Disney and everything they do, the realization that TFA is not only better than the Prequels, but better than the OT, and my discovery of breasts.

Now that’s a bit better. Sure it’s trying to mock what I was going for, but it’s more what I intended.

The pathetic thing is that this post is no better than the troll’s OP.

I said his post was pathetic. The rule says to attack the posts, not the user personally.

I guess I could amend my post and say, User-with-the-religious-epithet-as-your-username, your post was inexplicably just as pathetic as the troll’s OP. Respectfully.
