Erm... Stargate SG1? awesome series up until season 8. I couldn't cope with the whole Ori plot. My big qualm is that we will never get to meet a furling now... Bugger and blast!!

Well, reviving an old thread here but why not.

I'm a Star Wars fan through and through; only got to see them via the re-releases in 1997 but have enjoyed them ever since. Though i've got to admit that i like the books too - particularly the X-Wing series that concentrates on a group of people with varying strengths and weaknesses rather than 'Luke saves the world' style ones. Saying that though i refuse to believe the New Jedi Order books took place; to me that felt more Star Trek than Star Wars with the Yuuzhan Vong and all. Really it should be Empire Vs Rebellion...that's what Star Wars is; to have them team up to fight more aliens is a bit out of the flow. Maybe that's just me though! lol!

I agree that the civil war elements of Star Wars work better than the alien menace. After you've had Death Stars and the like, who cares about the Vong? (Okay, I have read a couple of the Vong books, but the impact isn't there, kind of what you were saying).

A total Star Wars fan. Though I must admit I never really gave Star Trek a chance, so I don't know if I could like it or if I'd be turned off.

I like the original trilogy more than this new stuff. Anakin gets on my nerves, and I think the Jedi have a few problems. "He's going to bring balance to the Force" gotcha. Okay. A billion Jedi. Two Sith. I'm sorry, but bringing balance to the Force isn't going to help the Jedi. I would have thought someone in the Jedi council would have thought of that one.

Anyway, I did like the kind of mystic side of Star Wars, while coupled with the militaristic and political struggle, and even the message that hope overcomes all. You don't need machines and troops to win a war. You just need hope, faith, and a village of Ewoks.

Also, since I'm a sucker for the Japanese, the Jedi's connection with the samurai sells me to it. However, I do disagree with some of the Jedi's tenents. Like the 'don't feel' thing. I'm a very passionate person, so I don't think I could be a Jedi. :(

So, there goes that dream.

Luke: "I don't believe it..."
Yoda: "And that is why you fail."

Yoda's like the ocean, deep and green. (Shh! The ocean's green!! In some places! Somewhere! I'm sure! XD)
