In all honesty I've never felt the urge to see them. Stargate is about the limit of my scifi experience and the only reason I began to watch that was Richard Dean Anderson. I had a small MacGyver crush when I was younger.
I'm not a Star Wars fan either. I got dragged to the third one and had to amuse myself by quoting The Matrix trilogy during key scenes. The only thing I even like about any of them? Ewoks. And ok, Han Solo. But having to put up with Mark friggin' Hamill ruins that.
I actually ended up quoting Shakespeare during Episode Two. (Joe's a Star Wars fan *sigh*) The little clone walked off to pick up his father's head, and I blurted, "Alas, poor Yorick."
As for Star Wars...my best friend and I made a deal that if she watched the Indiana Jones trilogy, I'd watched one of the Star Wars trilogies. Until that *long* weekend I think I'll remain Star Wars free.
What's funny is that I have seen Space Balls and loved it.
Star Wars and Indiana Jones the same weekend?! That would be... wait, I did that back when I was a kid. My brother, sister and I draped blankets on all the doorways to the living room, set up chairs and re-arranged things to be "movie theater" like, made popcorn and such and then would have movie marathons (usually star wars and Indiana). I just remember I always closed my eyes during the Raiders of the Lost Ark scene where they opened it. To this day, I don't think I've actually watched that scene. Of course that was when IJ was still just two movie instead of three.
Space Balls is the best thing that came from Star Wars I think. That is the most awesome spoof movie ever, imho.
*hugs back* On top of being sick, having a hurt hand and being in a personal funk for a few weeks, I found me a new fandom, crush and OTP that I was absorbing... NCIS, Michael Weatherly and Tony/Abby (sometimes Tony/Abby/Gibbs)...
