"Star Wars" or "A New Hope" or "Episode IV" or "The Original One" or "Star Wars 1977" and why?

I call it "Meh" because that is what a moderator at theforce.net once called it. If true Star Wars fans think it is meh, then who am I to argue?

BTW, in that same thread, someone posted a hysterical satirical defense of Star Wars. His defense took the form of a faux critique. Among the many highlights of this post, the poster asked, in regard to the Obi-Wan/Vader lightsaber duel, "Where is the twirling??". Shockingly, the post was deleted. I would love to read that post again, but my searches on the Wayback Machine have yielded nothing. But make no mistake, it was the post of the decade.

This thread has developed a bit of theme-itis, which seems at odds with the title of the thread. Allow me to bring it back on-topic by taking it off topic.

I live a few miles outside of town, and tonight the air smells like what you would expect it to smell like if the Death Star was a huge landfill and it blew up a mile above my house. Just a totally noxious smell.

Why is "General Star Wars Discussion" so dead?

Thanks Nanner and ferris, but Frink and xhonzi deserve more credit than I do.

I've been here since 06, but I use to post very, very infrequently, and mostly in the SW section. Then in my recent travels here I noticed the two of them engaging in web silliness, which I enjoy far more than a grown man should, and haven't shut up since.

I used to enjoy hashing out SW issues which seems funny to me now; I'd get fairly worked up over some pretty idiotic stuff. In Frink's LOL section, I posted a link to a big slap fight I got into over...Go-Mer-Tonic.

Seems worthwhile, right? :/
