When Star Wars really took off in 1977, the original projection was for 9 movies to eventually be made, which I thought was ridiculous. I never imagined that this stupidity would metastasize like this.

When Star Wars came out I was a teenager in the Air Force and I really liked the first movie. It was a great distraction from the pressures of my duty and I thought the next two were good, then when I heard they wanted to make three prequels and three sequels I was enthused.

The fourth movie came out (Episode 1) and I was sorely disappointed. Now, after all the newer movies have come out I am jaded. I only like the first three (Episodes 4, 5, and 6).
