Well then, guess that explains why he was trying to avoid him in the quarry. š
I have noticed you said you never watched the prequels and I wonder. Is it because you donāt want them to taint how you view the OT or are you just not interested?
Iām not blaming you or anything Iām just really curious.Little of both I suppose, but mostly because Iām not interested. I saw Phantom when it was released, thought it was terrible, and have all but forgotten it. I remember a few scenes, but itās not something I can recall other than how non-OT it looked and felt.
I havenāt seen the last sequel film either. Same reason. Iāve also only seen ROTJ twice that Iām sure of. Once in the theater and I wanted to walk out it was so stupid. I know I saw it again about 20 years ago when we did a lunchtime theater marathon of the OT where I worked. Itās possible there was a third time somewhere along the way, but I canāt be sure. That lunchtime theater was also the last time I saw Empire.
I donāt have a problem skipping what I donāt care for. I donāt battle the franchise the way some people do. Theyāre just movies. I watch what I like and skip the rest. Itās not difficult at all.
Sorry for the late reply, I only just now logged back in.
Thatās a very unusual take but very instersting, and basic when you think about it. Donāt watch what you donāt care for! Simple. I think we get so caught up in Star Wars as a cultural phenomena that we forget that theyāre just movies and we donāt have to watch them all. Like any movie, if youāre not interested you donāt have to watch it.
