    Nope, not a transformer fan either, but at least those movies let you know up front they aren't serious. St tried making a believable movie, but failed since first movie

    Hi...

    I enjoy the movies because I know them for what they are...mindless entertainment. An escape, as it were, from the harsh realities of life with its myriad problems and strife.

    No different than your typical western really...just imagine the Jedi Knights as the Earps and Doc Holliday and the stormtroopers as the Clanton gang. Horses become X-wing fighters and six guns become light sabers and blasters.

    They really are nothing more than westerns set in space. Don't take it any more seriously than the fictionalized westerns that Hollywood served up for decades. There really isn't any difference.

    I have only watched brief moments of any Star Wars movie and have no desire to watch more. I also hate Star Trek. A total waste of viewing time. I did enjoy the science fiction movies of the 1950s like the Thing. I also like the remake with Kurt Russell.

    well it's been a good weekend for sure, including 'Revenge of the sixth" day.

    the only one I really didn't care for was 'force awakens', best lame remake ever.....

    The first one was the best one. And then they sort of tapered off. Jar Jar Binks was the end of any of them being entertaining.

    Commander Stone was wrong, he was not smarter than he looks
