Gasgano_of_Earth, actually IMHO, it was a big thing during the 80's and early 90's.

Most of the hardcore fans used to hangout together, well, the group I was with anyways. Most of us, cept a few now, including me, are all that's left. Everybody else has gone back Stateside.

We do still keep in touch via emails but we don't have the special closeness kind of Fan Fun we had years before when we were together. Reality has set in and most of us do have familes and careers to think about now...

Still we are die hard fans, mostly old school [The Originial Trilogy] and are planning a get together pretty soon, familes, costumes and all. wink

Well here in Malaysia there are few real fans here. My best friend is an avid collector of SW figures. Well I'm more of a gamer than a true fan but I can defeat him in certain areas of SW knowledge happy . BTW he's the one who posted the pic for TFN Games Caption Action #13.

Umm...do you mean the one that was held in Mid Valley on May 11th? Or are you talking about the one held in Summit on May 17th? Well actually I've been to both of them happy with my friend too. Were you there?

Hehe...I might have saw you there...what were you wearing during the one on May 17th that took place at Summit USJ? I was wearing a Han Solo costume there (no bloodstripe :P) and my friend wore a Jedi Robe. Yeah...if you remember me...you'll know that I'm quite younger than most of you guys here....only 14...:)

Finally, I see someone else from Malaysia!! grin

There are 2 Star Wars fans in my school, but neither of them post here. They don't go online much, I bet.

Hi there! happy

I'm from Sri Lanka and over here I think Star Wars got mixed reviews when it was brought to the big screen.

I am probably one of the few people who actually followed the saga all the way from episode IV-ANH. Critics just watch AOTC and then say 'hey, this is confusing" confused or something like that.

Man are they missing out huh?

The ones who like it still had to do their homework on the Original Trilogy.

And I guess girls may have liked it because of Hayden... love Hey, I won't even argue there, coz I think he's fine. Heheh! silly

Oh well, that's about it...

bye,

God Bless, happy

Humaira

Wah! So you guys were also at the Mid-valley Megamall premiere of AOTC? You guys were the ones wearing Jedi robes? Which of you went on stage and sang the Jedi rap in Hokkien with Adrian Emuang?

I also do remember a gathering at KLCC, where the Star Wars community gathered to watch AOTC. Man, there was even a whole family who went dressed as Jedi Knights! Cool!

I was looking over this message board. I agree, the Koreans dont get into Star Wars much. Normally, I have to go to Seoul to find anything Star Wars related, and even then, there is not much. I end up having to order stuff from the US and have it shipped.
