Default Were are all of my fellow Star Wars geeks at?

Are any of my JW brethren going to the Star Wars Convention next week?

I know it will be difficult for those of you across the pond, but what about the rest of you?

This will be the biggest one to date.

I would like Star Wars better if the Empire won.

Is it me or do others feel the same way, my views on Starwars has changed since the final 3 movies.

Was it the change from miniture models to computer graphics which lack the crispness of the earlier movies?

Was it the lame acting, lame plot and lame directing of the last 3?

Or is it impossible for something to hold your interest your whole life without getting old?

I'm going to buy the commerative stamps, but I wont be at the convention.

Episodes 1-3 don't exist as far as many Star Wars geeks are concerned, including me.

But you know as much as they did not measure up to the first three, I want him to make the last trilogy anyway. It just not fun not having one to look forward too.

Trivia: in the first three, what two lines of dialoge are repeated in order between two of the films between two of the characters. Its not "the force be with you" or something like that.

Making the national news already. Expected 30,000 people will attend. Starting to think it might be fun.
