flickr.com — Before George Lucas turned our intergalactic dreams into a cosmic joke, we were obsessed. Want to remember what young-you felt for Star Wars, before Jar Jar, Jango and Jedi Younglings? This flickr slideshow will make you forget everything terrible that happened after the Ewoks' original Yub Yub song played its final notes.

Did you get laid by BoDuke in the back seat of that orange car of yours with the rebel flag on the roof?

They're all drivel! They were made to make money, not start some cult. If you would have seen those old movies in your 30s you would have though they were retarded. It's called nostalgia. It's painful, I know. I'm sure George Lucas is real sorry he didn't go ahead and make the prequels with a shoestring budget and on-the-fly effects design. But come on man, it's 30 years later for god's sake. Move the f**k on. This one will REALLY blow your mind: Transformers wasn't that great of a cartoon. But it sure felt like it when we were kids, didn't it?

My kid was also indoctrinated into star wars early (in the right order 4,5,6, 1,2,3). And rather likes my slightly tattered Return of the Jedi winter blanket / bedspread.

No, but I had your mom on the hood and added a star to the rebel flag. Ever since then, I've had this mysterious itch
