Star Wars by a guy who knows nothing about Star Wars

[The Skarzs]

. . . You have ruined Star Wars for me.

[alexandre]

Sorry, can I offer you a supernova as consolation?

Sigh

Watch the movies. Aside from the universe and the story itself, the original trilogy is a work of art and changed the world forever. They are classics, and worth watching simply to understand pop culture as well as gain greater insights to film.

I may be waxing lyrical about them, but there is a reason they are praised decades after the opening night.

In that case, no I haven't seen the movies but I know some basic stuff, like how darth is actually Luke's dad and Yoda green and the Jaba dude is kind of green and there is a cool robot who is friends with the guy that wears golden armor and there is an empire that strikes back and stuff

The golden dude is actually a robot too.

I do want to get around to seeing the movies at some point, untill then... *throws stars at Hickory*

WHAAAAT... my life is a lie
I only know about the golden guy and his robot because when I was like 8 I used to get the lego magazine thingy every month and sometimes they would have a lego star wars comic and it was the golden guy and the robot, I don't remember what was happening plot wise tho...
Also, one time a friend explained to me the whole Jedi Sith thing so I know that Jedi are good and Sith are bad and they both control the force which is an invisibly magic power that does stuff and Jedi are good and Sith are bad and apparently light sabers are better than guns in a fight, I still don't understand the logic behind that last one.

[The Skarzs]

Okay, so both the gold guy (C3PO) and "his" robot (R2D2) are "droids".

[alexandre]

Wait, so do they have emotions then?

Ah, I see.  We used to get that magazine too. XD

Lightsabers can be used to deflect shots from a blaster (pistol-type gun) - plus, they can cut through like 99% of materials with no resistance.  They're pretty cool.
