When the doors to an Orlando convention centre opened and I walked into the 2017 Star Wars Celebration, coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the release of the very first Star Wars film, I’m not sure what I was expecting.
Perhaps I was expecting a sea of middle-aged men, or pimply teenagers wearing Star Wars hats and t-shirts (I blame The Simpsons for this…).
But what I was greeted with was an intergenerational fan group. People of all ages and backgrounds who had one thing in common: their love of George Lucas' most beloved and famous creation.

i find it so funny yet so pathetic that many male star wars fans are so angry that theres a female lead in the new trilogy. saying things like pc gone mad in the galaxy or feminists out of control at disney. and that they refuse to watch the new movies because of it.
Just a pity Natalie Portman phoned in her performance as Senator Amidala in 1,2 & 3.
