Star Wars

So I finally got around to watching the original Star Wars trilogy so I could be caught up for the new one. Honestly, I thought it was okay. Had I grew up watching the series, I'm sure I'd have a bigger hardon for it, but as it stands... simply okay.

I can understand why these movies were a big deal, because they explored different planets, had a ton of aliens, weird technology, robots, and a lot of ambitious shit going on. I'm still quite curious about how they were originally, before they added all the CGI and SFX, but whatev. Some of the stop-motion looking stuff was pretty cool, and I guess the CGI was passable for '97 standards.

Fun Fact: My step-mom's sister is married to Peter Mayhew, who plays Chewbacca. That's why I feel compelled to try to have a stronger interest in the series, yet I can only consider my interest casual at best.
