    I like the Ewoks quite a bit. They’re adorable and capable of kicking ass in their own right. For me ROTJ is my second favorite Star Wars behind a New Hope. Actually that’s some more unpopular opinions from me. A New Hope is the best Star Wars because I think it does well at being a stand alone with a good story, fun action, fantastic music and for all the loose ends that were originally meant to be left to your imagination so that you could create the backstory. ROTJ is a great finale that wraps everything up. Plus it features what a particular comedy sketch refers to as being like Chuck Norris went to Build a Bear and created a super army. Rogue One is my third favorite for being an interesting darker take on Star Wars that showed what it was like for people who weren’t the main heroes and just how many heroes go unremembered. Empire is at number four, good but I found Han and Leia’s Cloud City Thing boring and frankly Boba safety isn’t that cool (Fight me). Then without too much detail the order goes Last Jedi, Force Awakens, Revenge of the Sith, Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones.

    I got nothing but mad props for A New Hope. Even if you take away the rest of the franchise, I've had teachers in college preach to me about how the original is the perfect Hero's Journey narrative all in one film. Out of all the others, it's the most like a classic fairy tale...just with spaceships and aliens.

    When I was a kid I liked ROTJ because Luke had the green lightsaber. I was obsessed with that thing. Just thought it was the bee's knees for whatever reason.

    My favorite one to watch though was ANH because I love Tattooine. So different looking from where I grew up so it was a fun escape with crazy characters.

    Emerald Green's my favorite color, so that was a easy win for me too. RotJ Luke was so badass, and a great progression of how he started out.

    Gotta agree that Luke in the opening scene of ROTJ was awesome. As for everything else, it’s my least favorite SW movie by far.

    I can't decide which of the OT I like more. Those movies were such a big part of my childhood. I always liked the Battle of Endor, because it's awesome.

    Star Trek 2: The Wrath Of Khan is better by itself than the entirety of the Star Wars body of fiction.

    I think it is okay to date a person for looks.

    However, I feel it is wrong to date someone for just looks. That just makes you look rude.

    overall for it's a combo deal it is okay to want a person appealing in both looks and personality.

    I don't like Apple's price range on their devices. For example, they want you to pay $600 for a iPhone XR that would have support for a few years and have it's Trade-In price degraded more and more throughout time to the point where it's just $50.00.

    My favorite part was the rocking hot hair of Kahn and his peoples. And the leather.

    Compared to what exactly? Apple has probably the best long term support in the business for consumer hardware, their products hold their value far better than anyone else's and buying stuff of similar quality from other manufactures isn't actually that much cheaper.

    Add me to that camp. I purchased the Blu-ray because all my friends said it was revolutionary. The first time I watched it, I fell asleep a quarter of the way in. The second time, I didn't even get halfway before turning it off and doing something else.

    This movie reminds me of the original Blade Runner. To this day, I still never got through it without falling asleep.

    I guess you're right on the consumer hardware and their value. However, I believe the Trade-In system should've been a bit more fair and offered a better Trade-In price on older devices that are still running pretty well ( ie iPhone 6S, iPhone SE, etc. )
