We are definitely in the mindset that we must not reveal who Luke's father is, ever, until my kids are old enough to see for themselves.<br /><br />My 3yo dresses up like Padame on a daily basis but they only know the characters from what we've told them. Like you, we're not mega-fans but the kids love everything and anything Star Wars. We went to the SW weekend at Disney and my 4yo fought Darth Vader in the Jedi Training. It was awesome!Caseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477976300026766137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-85221053915662016202011-07-22T14:12:27.673-07:002011-07-22T14:12:27.673-07:00@Julliana - I would watch them all several times i...@Julliana - I would watch them all several times in a row, if I just had the time. Maybe it's my priorities.<br /><br />@Slamdunk - Yeah, it really is.<br /><br />@Homemakerman - I know, I know. See above, I would watch if I had the time...<br /><br />@SFD - We might wait a few more years to let Lukas watch too.<br /><br />@ZenMom - Hahaha! Nice. I really did hate Jar Jar.

You ... But ... Guh-wha? Only seen them once...I ... You ... But ... Guh-wha? Only seen them once?! Dis-a-POINT-ed!<br /><br />I kind of thought that everyone in my general age-range was *statutorily mandated* to have seen the original trilogy AT LEAST 6 times. AND to have had the underoos! (You only have to have seen the prequels once, but, apparently, you ARE required to sneer snobbishly when someone mentions them and to immediately pronounce your soul-searing hatred for Jar-Jar. Hey - I don't make the laws, man.)<br /><br />I'll tell you right now, I don't think I could ever entirely trust someone who has NEVER seen them. So, at least you've got that goin' for you.<br /><br />Posts like this ARE starting to make me wonder about my own kids, though. My boys are 6 and 4 and have seen the original trilogy oh, about a million times. (They've seen the first 2 prequels several times, too. But not the last one. Not ready to go there, yet.) And they've never been even a little bit scared or bothered by them. But it seems like so many of my geek friends' kids of similar ages ARE kinda freaked out by them. <br /><br />Kinda makes me wonder about my Minions' Dark-Side tendencies. Then again, the youngest's career goal is "super villian", so, maybe I shouldn't be surprised.OneZenMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00764231117789511983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-33205693761124141532011-07-21T07:05:16.796-07:002011-07-21T07:05:16.796-07:00We have books, toys, and what not... he had a Boba...We have books, toys, and what not... he had a Boba Fett (soft plush like thing) when he was a few months old.<br /><br />They both know bits and pieces of the mythology, but my daughter is too scared and my son is too young for the films yet.SFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10972968534085123564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-15540807039769735272011-07-20T03:02:10.192-07:002011-07-20T03:02:10.192-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Gloria Rnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-8016325070091169092011-07-19T23:26:59.847-07:002011-07-19T23:26:59.847-07:00There is palpable disillusionment here right now. ...There is palpable disillusionment here right now.

DIE HARD fan.
...Almost Hubs is the Star Wars fan. DIE HARD fan.<br /><br />The force is alive and well in our home. I am the strongest Jedi, and I don't always use my powers for good, but I'll never admit it.<br /><br />But in truth, I never saw the movies until about 9 years ago. I watched them from Episode 1-6. And, right now, I think that guy in the back is removing his other shoe to throw at me.Julihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10097214923216967086noreply@blogger.com
