From S-Factor to Star Wars

06.22.2009 · Posted in 101 in 1001, Movies

After reading Laura’s adventures with S-Factor, I have decided to update my 101 in 1001 list. I am changing:

009 – S-Factor or equivalent class.

to

009 – Watch all the Star Wars movies.

They both start with the letter “S,” so that makes for a suitable replacement, yes? Okay, one is supposedly more like exercise, but I suppose I can leave the exercising to my other tasks, such as finishing my Bar Method classes or at least getting started on my daily sit-ups.

In terms of progress, I have finished Episode IV through VI! Avoidance of I through III has been suggested, but I might just put myself [and the friends who watch them with me] through the pain anyway to say that I’ve gone through them all.

There is no try.

It may come as a surprise to most, but I have only begun to watch the Star Wars movies. The first two came out in 1977 and 1980, both years in which I was not yet alive. When the third came out, I was but a toddler. My family never had cable television, so the likelihood of me watching the films as a young person were quite low. In fact, I only recall bits and pieces of the third film. Since I’d not seen the first three, I avoided the last three when they came out in theaters.

Thanks to Keane‘s encouragement by renting the movies and providing the venue to watch them, I’m finally getting to it!

Two down, four to go.
