It was pretty much the other way for me.
If anyone declared a dislike for Star Wars they were considered outsiders, weirdos, freaks of nature etc, etc.
I remember one girl was foolish to criticise some smaller boys for bringing their Palitoy figures into school and called them 'dolls' (presumably to induce a gender panic) and the teacher told her to shut up because they were, Star Wars characters, rather than because it was mean to use Freudianism to try and freak out smaller children.
One Kenyan woman once moaned about them, "being for children" when I showed Star Wars to an Indian friend of mine who had never seen them before but that was in the early nineties.
in the 70s and 80s Star Wars was pretty much universally loved, in my experience even by none sci-fi geeky types. The queues around the block for the SEs were full of the now grown up children of the 70s and 80s taking their kids or nieces and nephews to experience what they loved back then.
It was pretty much the prequels that ended that.
ROTJ had it's detractors in the day and I didn't love it as much as the first two but TPM was the first Star Wars film to be openly derided and to be considered 'uncool'.
Why is this off topic again?
