I don't understand how Star Wars keeps up its hype. The six movies are done and over with none apparently ever to be made again. Was an awesome ride but it seems to have come to an end.

Because it had a fanbase that has grown into maturity that has money to spend on neo nostalgic items.

Who agrees that movies IV - VI were more epic than I - III?

And George Lucas actually did plan to make VII - IX.  He never wrote them - it was all stuffed into VI.

Uh oh, I'm not part of everyone.

They were better, though. Not more epic, but better. Perhaps better because of the less epic.

Yes, yes you are. We will have to rectify this. Give me your address, I will mail you a bomb box set of the original trilogy.

I heard he had plans for VII - IX but is too afraid of dying to start them.

Of the new trilogy, I like part three the most. Mainly because it finally shows why Anakin became Darth Vader.

Do tell...

Well. It's like this, they were written up to attract a new audience and tell the back stories of certain characters we the old fans were familiar with. A two pronged attack so to say. Also I think they're all good in their own way, but I grew up on the original Star Wars films. However Stars anything animated, is just a cheap attempt to sell toys and clothing. Period.

Too bad they did a lousy job of transitioning him into place. It was very sudden. "I'm angsty as hell, but I'm a good guy! Oh, wait, I killed a Jedi, now I need to murder children and fight above lava pits! Fire! Fire! Iron Lung! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

It was a pretty awful ending.

True. I would've rather seen it stretched out more over the span of the entire new trilogy instead of just the "last" episode.

Star Wars will likly never die, I don't know if I have metioned this before but at my college theres student organizations. And one of the organizations is called "The Order", and in "The Order" there are like 20 guys that go out in the middle of the night and fight with 200$+ ligtsabres that are durable enough to takethe hits. It's actually kind of cool that somthing like that has laster over 30 years an still has the biggest fanbase. And I heard theres an actual nationwide star wars religion kind of thing going on... not sure if its true but I've heard it from alot of people. And the new movies were better than the old ones, just my opinion.

I'm sure they have massive amounts of facial hair on their whole bodies.

Except for their necks. Just to make things awkward.

I think they're trying to milk the new CGI cartoon now.
