My
name is Dante and I grew up not watching Star Wars. That's it. Let
the hate wash over you. I didn't hate it or anything. I just didn't
watch it the same way I didn't watch many of the films many did like
Sixteen Candles and Dirty Dancing. I grew up on a steady diet of
rated R and B-movies. Star Wars was a thing that I knew existed and
had some vague idea of what it was about. A guy was in space and had
robot friends, a giant dog, and fought this evil guy that could movie
things with his mind. I even had an R2D2 eraser that I permanently
borrowed from someone. What a stupid idea. Fancy eraser. You never
want to use it!
One
day I finally got to watch the original Star Wars films but it was
after watching the newer ones. That's right. I am the guy that
watched the films in order which it turns out is something that every
fan of Star Wars says you should never do.
