Back during my Tech Support days, we were allowed to bring in games on "holidays" to pass the time between calls. Those were the best days to work. :) When I got the originial trilogy edition, I took it in to play. The first round had four of us playing against each other. I missed, maybe, 2 or 3 questions and won the game. The next round, it was me against the four of them playing as one piece. They were allowed to collaborate on the answers. Still, same scenario. I missed a couple of the 'Who was the actor that played .' This time, however, for me to win, I had to answer the whole card when I got to the center, not just the "wildcard" question. By this time, there's a crowd of about 20 ppl watching. We decide to do one more round, and this time it's me vs. the mob. Same scenario played, except this time I had to answer the whole card for every square I landed on. After winning my third straight game, one smart asspirin in the crowd decides that he can stump me. He makes up his own question: "What's the third word Darth Vader says in ESB?" I sat and pondered on it for a few moments - translated, I watched the movie in FF in my mind. I looked up at him and said, "something". Half of the crowd cracked up just because I actually answered. The other half thought I was probably right....and they weren't wrong in thinking that. :)

Forget over 100 times seeing Star Wars....I'm over 1000!!!! I ran it 24/7 in college on a VCR that would rewind and play again automagically. I've got all of the novels and daughter named Jaina. My wife installed peg board in our den downstairs so I can hang my unopened SW Figures for all to see. On the down side of this, no one will play Star Wars Trivial Pursuit with me. :(
