Today is Star Wars Day!!!

As you can guess from the overexcited use of exclamation marks – I am a fan 😉

I still have many of the posters that used to hang in my room when I was a kid but now they are well hidden inside some boxes holding my teenage paraphernalia.

I´ve watched the movies countless of times, that is to say the first three movies (or Part IV, V, VI) – the later ones quite often too but not nearly as often as the other ones. And yes, I believe, they are still the best and surpass all the other Star Wars movies that followed up to this day even though the special effects might have improved.

But this is exactly the point, isn´t it? It´s not the special effects that made the original movies so absolutely great and fantastic – although they were comparatively awesome for that time – but it´s everything else.

You are, of course, allowed a different opinion, but honestly, I won´t change mine ever! 🙂
