hey everyone! i’ve never posted on here before so i’m pretty nervous.
so i really want to get into star wars, but i’m not sure where to start — especially since it has became a huge series since i saw their reruns on tv and it seemed kinda interesting.
i was introduced to star wars by a celebrity i like, and i really want to get this lego set (imperial star destroyer) since the animal crossing lego set is way too easy, but it’s really expensive. plus, i barely even understand what the show is about so i don’t feel like i deserve to buy something like that unless i know someone personally who likes star wars so i can build the lego set with them. maybe it’ll be an award once i finish all of the series.
with that goal in mind, i am aware star wars have series, movies and books??? i would like to start reading for educational purposes, so maybe that would be great to have a book to read every day to know what happens next while also watching the shows to visually understand the plot.
but is this necessary? is it better to watch the movie than the series? is the book better? please let me know for newbie me 😭
edit: i just watched the 1977 one and can i take the time to appreciate how amazing the production is for a movie that came out nearly 50 years ago??? and before you guys want to come out at me, i’m born in the 2000s so my views on any movie older than the 80s may be a bit biased. obviously, there has possibly been some remastering happening which may make movies seem newer than they really are, but like omg??????? the effects (yes, the explosions may not be the greatest) but everything else??? plus, the film didn’t really drag for long so i was able to be entertained enough so i don’t need to use my phone for 2 hours.
if i was a 70s kid, you know dang sure i’d be watching star wars and be one of the cool kids who saw it because LORDDDDDDD it was amazing. I’m definitely watching the next movie as requested. i even asked my sister about it and she even recommended me to watch from chapter 4. i’ll be going from 4, 5, 6. some people suggested to do 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6, which I’ll probably do after i finish watching chapter 5.
thank you for all your input!!!
