Yay for the SW thread!! (and for Danie, because...well, she's my Princess Leia, and I love her heaps... )

I've only seen Episode 2 out of all the movies and can't remember much of it. But I will eventually watch all 6 of them...sooner rather than later.

It's about time. I always wanted a thread like this but I didn't think there were enough of us around for it. Glad I'm not alone.
I also suffer from Star Wars withdraws on occasion. The first movie I ever seen outside of my house was The Return of the Jedi with my parents at the ripe age of 2 and I still have the book they gave out on opening night. I still have all of my original figures from when I was a child and have even purchased some of the originals still sealed over the years. I have a room in my house devoted to my Star Wars collection that consists of everything from my action figures new and old, books, posters, busts, autographs, etc. I would say that since I got a job my freshmen year of high school I have easily spent close to 40 thousand dollars on my collection and wouldn't give it up for anything. I have two Star Wars tattoos and hope to finish my back up over the next few years. I name my Yorkie Chewbacca and my daughers middle name is Leia, not that I hold my child and my dog in the same group but they both suffered my wrath when it came to names.

Over the past few years at the Star Wars celebration and other cons I've met the following cast members:
Carrie Fisher-Princess Leia
Anthony Daniels-C-3PO
Kenny Baker-R2-D2
Billy Dee Williams-Lando
Peter Mayhew-Chewbacca
David Prowse-Darth Vader
Jeremy Bulloch-Boba Fett
Warwick Davis-Wicket the Ewok
Phil Brown-Uncle Owen
And various cast members from the Prequel Trilogy.
And I have to say the nicest cast member that I've ever met was Amy Allen. She played Aayla Secura in Attack of the Clones and will revise her role in EP3. She more than willing the chat and take photos and she even exchanged emails with me and I have spoken to her several times since.

I can't wait for Revenge of the Sith next may, I think I'm more excited about taking my daughter to see it, after I see it and make sure there's nothing she shouldn't see or would be too scary for her. I'd like to end my Star Wars experience full circle, with what began as my parents and myself to end with my daughter and I.

Favs:
Star Wars Movie:Star Wars Episode 5:The Empire Strikes Back
Character: Obi Wan Kenobi/Yoda/R2-D2
Scene:Yoda reveal or the infamous I am your father scene.
Line:
Obi Wan: Luke, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.

So, have you guys heard about the DVDs for episodes 4-6? Apparently Lucas is making some scene changes that have Star Wars fans in an uproar.

Yeah I heard about that, something about inserting a scene with Hayden Christensen into Return of the Jedi and some additional scenes of the Emperor in Empire Strikes Back. I'm glad I have the actual originals on tape, Lucas keeps changing them so much.

Fav movie:Return of the Jedi
Fav character: Han Solo
Fav scene: When Yoda busts out on Count Dooku
Fav quote: "Let the Wookie win."

I'm not as much into Star Wars as you people apparently are, but I'm a pretty good fan of it.

I feel that I'm in the minority of people who actually enjoyed the Phantom Menace over the Attack of the Clones. I didn't enjoy AotC that much...

 

[Ellesar]

I love Star Wars! I can't wait to see Revenge of the Sith next May. I'm looking forward to seeing it. I already have all of the Star Wars movies, and am a big fan. I'm not sure which one is my favorite. My favorite character from the OT would probably be Han Solo, but my fav character from Episodes 1 and 2 is JarJar Binks. I find him funny. Does anybody else find it strange that Yoda can be so agile when he's fighting, yet he needs a cane to walk?

The force is strong in that one.

luke: take me now, baby!

One of my best theater experiences ever was seeing the Episode IV special edition on opening day at the Mann Chinese Theater. Not only was it my first time in a theater, but we were there for a surprise birthday party for a friend of mine. It was great because everyone there was so into it, and even though we knew everything ahead of time, all of the jokes were funnier than ever. I'll never forget that one.

Fav. Movie: Episode 4, then 1
Fav. Character: How can you pick... I have to say C3P0
Fav. Scene: When Han is trying to convince the people on the intercom that everything is fine and under control.
Fav. Quote: "What do you think... A girl like her and a guy like m..." "No."

Fav movie: The Original (A New Hope)

Fav Character: Obi-Wan Kenobi

Fav Line: "Great shot kid, that was one in a million"-Han Solo to Luke Skywalker after he blew up the Death Star in Episode IV.

Fav scene: Death Star battle in Episode IV, still 'edge-of-your-seat' action after almost 30 years and countless viewings.

First time seeing Star Wars: Summer 1977, age 6. I remember very few things about being 6 years old, but seeing Star Wars for the first time is one of them

Favorite Movie: ESB
Favorite Quote: (I get to pick 2 because I'm cool) "Judge me by my size do you? And well you should not. For my ally is the Force and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it....makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter." and "You have failed your highness. I am a Jedi. Like my father before me."
Favorite Character: Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker
Favorite Scene: (I get to pick 2 of these too ) When Anakin Skywalker kills Darth Vader (metaphorically), saves Luke, and turns on the Emperor. I'm such a fanboy geek that I well up every time. 2nd is when Lando and Wedge take out the second Death Star. Wedge is the man.
