Star Wars

It was the dawn of disco in 1977, when Star Wars hit the big screen. It was a simpler time then, when we would giggle to say “May the Force Be With You,” to each other and before botox could make us all seem as fresh faced and naive as Young Luke Skywalker. But that was episode 4, this is episode 2. Thats right.. 4 was before 2...

If not that’s confusing get this: The father of Luke Skywalker from 1977 was introduced in 1999’s Phantom Menace as a little boy and now in the new Star Wars movie, released yesterday, he’s a teenager. But... he’s yet to become Darth Vadar who we discover in Star Wars episode V, the Empire Strikes Back .. that he’s Lukes father. It wasn’t until episode 6, Return of the Jedi--19 years before this current movie-- that we learn Luke has a twin sister.. Princess Leia.

You would need the Jedi instruction of Yoda to figure this thing out and even then you wouldn’t understand it because Yoda speaks completely backwards.. Try you must... This clone war.. begun it has... The Star Wars movies, confusing they are... Help me Obi Wan Kenobi... Your our only hope.

See the movie, you’ll appreciate the simplicty of dwelling in our dull galaxy... I’m Billy Murphy with Murphys’ minute.
