Anyone else want to join me in this heresy?  Anybody?  How about you over there, with the tar... and feathers...
It's the throwing phase now.

...anyway
Children yet, the tale to hear, Eager eye and willing ear, Lovingly shall nestle near.  In a Wonderland they lie, Dreaming as the days go by, Dreaming as the summers die: Ever drifting down the stream --Lingering in the golden gleam --Life, what is it but a dream?

Apparently Cookie hasn't seen LotR.  I'm not sure he's seen Star Wars either.

At this point, to have not seen Star Wars is an act of will - not circumstance.

I agree with Derek.  People our age have to actively force themselves not to watch them, if they haven't seen any of them yet at this point.  Why, I don't know.  I remember the first time I saw Jedi (Episode 6) when I was about 11 years old, and it happened to be on FOX from 8:00 to 11:00.  It wasn't bad, except for having to sit through the commercials.  Plus I didn't watch them in order, so seeing Empire (Episode 5) last was a bit of a downer for me, since I knew what already transpires at the end of Jedi.

I've got a friend at home who still hasn't seen any of the old Star Wars movies yet either.  I call it blasphemy.  :P

LotR the movie is just a movie.  Who cares if you've seen it?  Go read the books and get some learnin' in ya BOY!

Back in the day, I went to college with someone who never saw Star Wars.  That ceased to be the case by the end of the year.
