Lets face it, we've all lost a day or two watching this epic saga!
Star Wars fans... It's changed our lives, moulded us into the people we are today, given us countless hours of enjoyment throughout our childhoods - and even through adulthood.
How many of us desperately want a car that is like the Millennium Falcon, and want to live in a man cave that replicates the Death Star?
Here are the top three reasons Star Wars has changed our lives:
1:The realisation that you'll never be as cool as Han Solo.
"What do you think? A princess and a guy like me?" -
We all knew that it would happen: a filthy scoundrel with a princess. Sure. Why wouldn't that work?
Obviously, there's not a lot anyone can say about Solo that hasn't been said before: he's simply a jerk. An awesome, witty jerk.
Why do all of us guys want to be him? Charisma? His careless attitude? His confidence? Or the fact that he drives the coolest vehicle ever. The fact that the design of his iconic spaceship came from a a burger with two forks sticking out of it is, in itself... amazing.
2: We want Jedi Powers. How cool would it be to wave your hand around and brainwash people? Ask yourself this: how many people would you like to use that trick on? Or even better, this trick would come in handy during your lazy days, for when you cant be bothered to go and get the TV remote....
3: Geek? Now this is definitely written from my personal point of view, and is a bit of a catch 22. Whilst I was at school, I was a total NERD. It's great to see that nowadays we are all able to go to special expo's dedicated to all things pop culture, and we are all able to go full blown geek without being uncool. Looking back on it though, that is how Star Wars saved me! (Yeah, I know, a bit dramatic). I studied because I wasn't going round to house parties all the time, or drinking on the streets, I got good grades and now have a kick ass job where I can write about my favourite things in life... pretty sweet, eh?
How many of you are as excited as we are for the return of Star Wars in 2015? We know we are!
