I was about to ask you why you made this thread if you didn't care until I saw your last sentence...... Watch the movies and if you don't like cool........ I didn't like that shyt either and I asked the same shyt lol...... But I'm a fan of Lord of the Rings and Back to the Future too.......... You are right to question that shyt lol
That's all I'm saying bruh. Lol ain't no diss to the star wars fans

But clearly this shyt is a phenomenon and means a whole lot more to people that just a movie. You can't deny the cultural impact this shyt had/has so I'm just tryna understand it.

:mjlol::mjlol:....go to the theater tonight in the hood....and you will see a shyt load of black people going to see this tonight....

Because alot of us saw the movie growing up as kids....it still holds that sentimental value....there was hype when they did the other trilogy in the early 2000's....so even more hype was definitely to be expected....I don't understand how you cannot understand this??....did you not grow up in the US???....
From what I've understood, the original came out in the 70's.

I assume, like me, most of y'all are in your 20's? The 70's original held up like that for you to be interested in it as a kid?

LOL I won't like it if I was you...... shyt be slow as fukk....... If you do happen to want to watch DONT WATCH EPISODE I............ I liked them all but Episode II was a snooze fest.......... Episode 2 was corny but all of it leads to Anakin's turn to the dark side and we get to see Darth Vader become Darth Vader.... Episode III was the best...... Episode IV-VI you'll hate it or you'll like it........ I'm not the biggest fan but my interest is peaked........ Again watch the movie and like it or dislike it...........Daps to you for not being on that disrespectful shyt.......

Think about it like this:

If "It's Tricky" comes on I jump outta my chair like a maniac. My 20 something cousins be lookin at me like "really?".

I can't explain how impactful Run DMC was or any historical fact that will make them appreciate it. They weren't there and they can't relate. Meanwhile, all this global Hip Hop mega stardom shyt is because of Run DMC. Even the concept of wearing street clothes on stage. Doesn't sound that amazing to young people, tho.

Richard Pryor might be boring to kids. Meanwhile every comedian since is doing his shtick.

Star Wars is your favorite sci fi action movie's daddy. No way to understand the world before Star Wars cause the shyt Lucas pioneered is ubiquitous now. So when you see something modern that has been built on 30 years of people adding on to Lucas' original design, of course it's "better". Just like the latest jumbo jet is nicer than the ones built in 1980.

Those of us who recognize this fact pay homage. Plus, it's prolly gonna be a dope movie.

I'm not a huge star wars fan myself. I've seen some of the original trilogy and I remember watching episode 1 when it came out. I want to see the first six before watching the new one tho. As far as the op, it's a huge franchise(like many other movie franchises) with a big following. Of course people are gonna get hype about it. Look at for example when a new Jordan shoe or video game comes out. People gonna be excited and talking about it since they loyal to the brand and have supported them before. Same shyt here. And you can't base it on race, like saying that the black people around you aren't talking about. Because there are millions of black people. You don't even know 1% of the black population in this country so just cuz people you know aren't fukking with it, doesn't mean others aren't. Besides, who knows. Maybe some of your friends might be interested but just haven't told you. Ask them what they think about the movie, then go check it out if y'all like.

Honestly, from what I've been reading about how they did John Boyega's character in this flick, I don't have much of an urge to go see it either :yeshrug:

You see what this movie is doing to yall? :dwillhuh:

That's why I'm asking what the hypes about :dwillhuh:
Humanity as a whole craves good story well told. It's why we listen to rap or any other form of entertainment. Star wars when it first debuted was the quintessential heroes journey that everyone likes to see and has throughout various cultures in the world. It combined music, story and acting in a way that really hadn't been done before. Starwars also has its own day. May 4th.
