Please don't despise it. Some of it's acting is terrible, at least half of it is stupid, and other things, but it isn't
that bad.
I personally like Star Wars, but I don't love it

. I can totally understand anyone's dislike like of it, seeing as my mom has yet to sit through an entire episode. But I don't think that my like for it is at all related to my like for ME and LotR. I watch Star Wars mostly for amusement.
