Longtime lurker, lifetime star wars fan

Finally wanted to join up & take part in the discussions. I've been a lifelong star wars fan. My mom said my first movie was the original star wars ep IV when I was 1, and I guess it always stayed with me. I have a love for the movies, comics, novels, toys, and games. Much to my wife's dismay. As my son gets older I've been exposing him also to the star wars universe, and it's allowed me to relive the story through his eyes.

 

Thanks for the welcome. I've been lurking for many years, and just got the urge to join with the excitement of ep VII. I used to subscribe to sw insider for info, but this seems like a better source of info in the digital age. I have a werewolf themed tattoo sleeve, and Darth Lycan just seemed to fit. A Lycan is different from a werewolf as he has the ability to control his transformation. I was just going for a general use of the term, but after SW I'm a general sci-fi movie junkie so I have a lot of favorites. I'm def a hardcore fan. I'm staring at my lifesize Darth Maul in my basement as I type this lol.

 

Welcome...
"I have been expecting you." - Palpatine
"Hello, there." - Ben Kenobi

So, you have a lifesize Darth Maul in your basement... Nice!

 

Welcome Darth Lycan. Awesome story! I hope to talk with you on the board in the future.

 

Awesome, I love the classics as well. My fav werewolf themed movie is dog soldiers if your familiar? I snapped a quick pic of my sleeve for you of the largest image. It's hard to get decent pics of it due to the angles. I'm pretty heavily inked. I started collecting tattoos in the navy & continued on after I left. Once, I was done school, and secured a decent job I added heavily to my canvas. No SW tats, yet...

yes found it at a farmers market of all places. It was one of the original pepsi display models for TPM.

Thank you to everyone for the warm welcome!

 

also a good one

 

I don't know why dog soldiers struck a chord with me? Prob because it was a well made low budget movie that just worked for me & it had some humor & a certain cheesiness to it. I like all werewolf flicks. Even cursed wasn't too bad lol. I like the new wolfman & the ending could've been better for sure. I'm a sci-fi/horror/action kind of guy so I'm always watching movies in my limited free time. I need more hours in the day to keep up with all my interests.

 

You never know? Clouded the future is.
