OK, I am a star wars fan too.  I love the movies.  But, I don't get dressed up in weird ass costumes.  Then again, I don't obsess over firearms either.  My life doesn't evolve around having an arsenal (although I firmly believe we all have a right to such).  Just as these guys go overboard over the movie, I know a lot of people on this board will go spastic when wally world has a sale on winchester white box ammo.....

As long as these people realize it is just a game and put it aside when appropriate, there is no problem.  BTW, the reason I love the movies is because it combines science fiction with fantasy (knights in shining armor type).  2 of my favorite genre.

If you are a 170-200lb chick you cannot be princess leia or Padme period!!!!

Sorry I loved Star Wars as a kid.

Now dont think my house is covered in Star Wars posters or crap etc but its always fun to sit down with the kids and watch the movies.

Heck me and the wife dressed up with the kids at Halloween and had a great time.

Theres nothing wrong with dressing up in costume once in awhile (I want a Stormtrooper outfit, complete with a demilled STEN gun.)

There are some people who - for what ever reason - HALF ASS or even QUARTER ASS a costume and look like SHIT. I dont understand this. I think they have mental problems and see their custom as something nice.  I see this at ren fairs too. If you cant make a 1/2 way decent costume - THEN DON'T BOTHER.

There are uber dorks and fags in every hobby - even shooting. (look ag deej)

How Mark75101 deals with starwars freaks:

As soon as I find out someone is a star wars geek I wait for the appropriate moment then "mistakenly" refer to star wars as star track, when they start to correct me on it I just say "whatever" and continue right back into my conversation. I usually try to fuck it up at least one more time. Each time when they correct me (and they will) I handle it the same way "whatever". The reverse of this works just as well with the trek geeks. Its amazing just how pissed off they get without ever catching on.
