Star Wars

I've made an effort to understand Star Wars stuff. Darth Maul, Darth Vader, the Emperor, Obi Wan, etc. I think I know who all the main characters are now. It was all a mystery before. I'm still no expert, but I'm a lot smarter than I was. I still don't know why some of the bad guys wear black and some wear white. That is just needlessly confusing for someone like me.

I did see the latest Star Wars and pretty much understood what was going on. I had to have a few things explained to me, but the explanations made sense. That usually doesn't happen. I was disappointed in no Jar Jar. Who's with me?

I looked up how it was doing all-time. It is 5th place after just a week and a half. (Avatar, Titanic, Jurassic World, Avengers). It really isn't fair how they base movies on how much they make. They don't cost a nickel anymore. I looked up a site that has movies based on inflation. With that this latest Star Wars is only 53rd. The older ones stand a chance now - Top 5 are Gone with the Wind, First Star Wars, Sound of Music, ET, Titanic. That sounds kind of like it should be.
