HAPPILY IMPERFECT

Happy Star Wars Day

Jack isn’t quite old enough to sit through the Star Wars movies but that day is coming —presuming I can get him out of the Marvel universe long enough, Spidey and his Amazing Friends is pretty good though!— and I do wonder what he’ll make of it.

Just another old movie that Dad wants him to watch?

Which makes me wonder what his ‘Star Wars’ movie will be? Do movie releases still have that big an impact? I think so, but in 10 years time, when he’s 14, will it still be the same? Probably not.

Regardless, May the 4th be with you.

    My son has been watching the Lord of the Rings films with his son, who’s nearly 10 (and is currently reading The Hobbit). He says they hold up really well. Apparently, the first is 25 years old, which seems ridiculous. And when my sister came to live here, Tim (my late second husband) and I discovered that she’d never seen Back to the Future, which came out when my oldest children were young. We put that right immediately. Still brilliant. Happy Star Wars Day to you too. I think it’s time I watched it again.

    Here’s hoping Star Wars holds up too!
