Like many Gen Xers, Star Wars was a huge part of my childhood. Between the classic, original trilogy, the Kenner action figures, and the Marvel Comics, Star Wars definitely defined a large part of my childhood.
All these years later and people are still crazy for the Star Wars. The magic of it all dissipated for me once it became a “brand” but I’m glad newer generations still dig it. The twenty-first century stuff is not my bag, but good for them. I had my time in the double-suns of Tatooine, so to speak, and it was good while it lasted. Sometimes you move on and that’s okay.
