That’s right, 40 years: the first film in the Star Wars franchise was was released on May 25, 1977, exactly 40 years ago today.
I succumbed to peer pressure, partially to shut my coworkers up, but also to finally find out what all the fuss has been about for the last 40 years. Like a Sith master and his apprentice (I think?), they sought to bring me to the dark side.įor the last week, I was force fed all the Star Wars movies I could handle, and in the fanciest, most modern way possible. All I knew about Stars Wars at that point were glow in the dark swords and daddy issues.
I breathed air for 29 years without watching a single second of George Lucas’ space fever dream. Everyone gasped in disbelief, then proceeded to viciously laugh and pepper me with questions. That’s what I told my coworkers at Digital Trends a few weeks back. I’m 29 years old and I have never seen a single Star Wars film.
