No, one of my friends where I used to work, she is in her early 30's and has not seen any of the star wars films.
shareDepends on how old you are. If you're in your 40s or 50s or older and you haven't seen it, then that's sacrilege. An abomination. But if you're in your 30s or younger, then that's not too surprising then.
shareWell I've committed sacrilege then. I've seen parts. But I've never watched the whole film straight through. I think I'm just a bit of a trekkie snob.

shareYeah, one day I'll smoke a joint, knock down a few beers, and try and watch it. 🤣
shareOh, SHUT THE FUCK UP, April-151-CT!!! WHO the hell do you think you are to insult wise people like that!?!
I have a friend who is in her 40s and had never seen them. She watched this, didn't like it cause it was too slow paced for her, and refused to watch the rest. She said she only wants to watch modern movies cause old ones are too slow paced. She even feels this way about 80s Action movies.
shareIt's a great movie. If you're a fan of movies, you should watch this at least once in your lifetime.
Star Trek is certainly more realistic in many ways but SW is more fun.
Yes, you and the people in North Korea are the only ones who never seen this
shareWhat about Jaws, was that never your scene?
shareI was a kid when Jaws came out of course. Yeah, at the time it was great.
shareIf you’re wondering why I asked you about a random movie, it's a lyric from a Queen Song. 😁
shareOh. Lol. I recently trashed "Jaws" on the "Jaws" board. I thought you were being snarky, like I don't like great movies. 🤣

shareJaws was never my scene
And I don't like Star Wars
Damn, that's uncanny. I'm not the only one.
I recently dissed both "Star Wars" and "Jaws".

Aha I wasn't aware of that post.
I used to sing that lyric in my childhood but was perplexed by it because I loved Star Wars, these days I can sing it because I don’t like Disney Star Wars. LOL
Yeah, the whole thing is kinda uncanny. Only on MovieChat! 🤣
Actually, I might like "Star Wars" if I actually ever see it!
I thought about this the other day, that there must be loads of Star Wars fans out there who have never yet watched the original trilogy, thanks to all the latter TV shows and films.
It’s the same for Star Trek, plenty of younger fans could love Trek without ever watching or caring to view classic Trek or The Next Generation.
True, there's entire extended franchises on these films.
shareI HATED Jaws, I thought it was BORING.
Star Wars is more space fantasy than science fiction.
share+1
shareI'm not a fan of how they turned it into a Space Opera.
shareHow so a "Space Opera"?
shareUnrelated characters suddenly being family out of nowhere. The usual Soap Opera stuff. The original movie was a straightforward science fiction space fantasy drama adventure. But don't get me wrong I do love part 2 and part 3 was okay, but too much of the Space Opera stuff. Then the Space Opera stuff got upper 10 fold when the prequels came out.
shareYou say you're not a fan of the space opera stuff, yet you, just above, called someone and abomination and called them sacrilegious for never having watched fucking Star Wars in the first fucking place, so what does that make you? WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!?! STAR WARS is SHIT!!
If you watch the OT, which I recommend, watch the Lucasified Special Editions first. They're easier to obtain and I want to see someone's impression of the films without being pissed off about the changes Lucas made.
