7-Year Old Prequel Fan On ANH

Random BedHead Ed writes "It is a subject often pondered by Star Wars fans: what is it like to watch the six films in order with a fresh perspective? From the Desk of Ghent, On one of the Star Wars blog site's many journals, answers this question in a recent blog entry about the writer's 7-year old son, who recently watched A New Hope for the very first time. Some enlightening quotes: 'Look... Obi-Wan is pretending he doesn't know R2-D2,' and 'Why don't those ships need Hyperspace rings?' It's a pity the end of Empire has been spoiled."

    I think I speak for the rest of slashdot when I say that you are alone. Remember the Nightmare on Elm Street series and other slash'em classics? I, like everyone else I know, was watching them at 7 years old. Except for one of my friends whose parent's were Right Wing Christian Nutjobs and she didn't watch anything R rated until she was 16. The kids will be fine. /is right wing and christian, but the people I'm talking about were true nutjobs. Their child is still recovering from brainwashing and might just forgive them after a couple years of therapy.

  3. Starwars is what, exactly? by bw5353 · · Score: 0, Troll

    Ok, mod me down as troll, flamebait, off topic and worse, but before you do that, could you please help me. I'm not into Starwars at all. I've seen one or two on the wide screen once and probably half of some of the other ones, when I still had a tele. I've forgotten most of it. Does anyone know of a web site where they give a short but good description of the main characters only and the main story line for the six films? I really just want the basics, so I don't feel left out when my mother discusses the films with my grandma.

    No. I mean he will bend her over, and incestually fuck her in the ass with his prosthetic, mechanical penis.
