endorphin74 said: evenstar3 said: all i know is that i'm sick of every other commercial, from M&M's to Burger King, having something Star Wars in it. I mean, people are gonna flock to see the movie anyway, so why do they have to throw it at us constantly?
see, being a star wars nut, i love that everything I've seen in the past week has some sorta star wars sumptin. It's crass commercialization, but it works for me!  I know what you mean. I've actually found the over-hype quite amusing, even with all the TV commercials, then again I don't watch TV but maybe one night a week so I haven't been over-saturated with it. Now if it were someone like prince, I'd probably be screaming "SELL-OUT"! All Rights Reserved. |

I wonder if they sell these here? My son would love it. He just drew a picture of Darth Vader - complete with that triagle grill bit on the front of the helmet  He was drawing it from memory too.

Remember phantom menace marketing? Amazing. That was the most hpye film I have ever witnessed. Kids at my school even brought in lightsabers.
I remember tazzo's (lil' kids toys, like badges, excpet u traded them and colleced them) for the re-release of the orginal trilogy in 1997. Perfect age for myself and my mates to see star wars. Now Iam so happy I got to see those movies in the cinema. I never saw them before that. That was very crafty of lucas. | |

we don't have 7-11s here We don't have them in Houston either. Back about 15 years ago, Stop & Go bought them all out. Now the closest one is in Austin!
