What can I say about this cartoon? I don't know about you, but I've always believed that Chewie was naked...Don't you?
Anyway... I'm not sure I'd consider myself an actual fan-boy, per se , but I definitely enjoy the whole tribal concept of being part of a following, an ancient brotherhood that share and practice a series of rituals and dark customs, unattainable and incomprehensible to the common peasant... An exclusive club of secret members who's mandatory right of passage is both to test the very knowledge of their chosen cadre as it is to show an unparalleled passion and commitment to it...
It's not enough to know a particular film, series of films, video game, comic book or music/musician, etc. to DEATH!
No, it's paramount that this knowledge, this personal mission statement, must permeate every aspect of your life and that of those in immediate proximity...
In other words: Fan Boys rule...
I was very young when I first was blown away by The Star Wars saga, and much has transpired since then...But , all obscene commercialism and fanatical following aside, I always remember the first time I read those first words on screen and heard the thunderous score from J. Williams...
It was Awesome...
And then I saw James Cameron's Aliens and that was that!
