You're only old if you use to watch 'Space 1999' on TV.

The Force Awakens just became the largest grossing domestic film of all time. I wonder if that speaks to the production value or the sheepishness of today's society?

it's in part the propaganda and lemming affect due to its pop culture pervasiveness. I've had many discussions over the past month with non-scifi/non-star wars fan who planned to go see it or have already seen it just out of curiosity. They rarely ever bother with science fiction/fantasy/comic book movies but these people (that I speak of) went to see the new Star Wars anyway. It's as if it was programmed into them to go watch the movie. That's what happens when you put a Dark Lord of the Sith on a cereal box, I suppose.

Sorry, I guess he's just a Dark Jedi, not quite a Sith yet. But his master may be a Sith (or may not be) so it's still a bit ambiguous, I guess. #nerd.
