Frikadellen! Mmmh, Frikadellen.
Just not my thingy, that sci-fi narrative.
I'm sorry.

Or, even worse, start a discussion about the Starship Enterprise fighting an Empire warship, or even, the Death Star! But, then again, there's the Borg.

"Star Wars" - before "A New Hope" or "Episode IV" we're pulled from George Lucas' ass - ran at my local cinema for eighteen straight months. For much of that, it played exclusively in the large (1000 seat) auditorium. People waited in line for hours to buy a ticket only to wait more hours for a seat. This wasn't opening weekend, this was months after release.
People who weren't there, I'm not sure can really grasp how enormous of a cultural impact that film was in 1977-78,.but I thing Rogue One gives you all some inkling of it.

I have to say that Rogue one, for me, is on par with Empire: definitely in the top three of the Star Wars movies.

Yeah, April 4th, but you can watch it on streaming services right now. VUDU, for example. And Amazon.
April?
But... but... My dealer already supplied me with the BluRay 1080p of that movie...
Nothing to see here, move along... this is not the droid you're looking for!
