Star Wars: The Past Awakens

Star Wars Episode 4 was one of the first movies my family ever rented on VHS. In fact, it was sometime in the mid 80s when we had to rent the VCR too! It was for a birthday sleepover if I remember right and I'll never forgot how enamored I was watching this outer space story.

I liked those Timothy Zahn books very much. I thought they did the best job of continuing the story in a style similar to the originals.

I agree, video games like Rogue Squadron and later with KOTOR and Battlefront were greatly influential in my love for Star Wars.

A lot of my exposure to Star Wars in my early days came in the form of merchandise. I don't remember ever watching the movies until around high school, by which time the films themselves would have been over and done with for about four or five years.
It was in high school that my Star Wars nerd friend forced me to watch all the films on VHS tape... many times over. From there, I felt more of a connection to the story and the characters. I still wasn't a big Star Wars nerd, but I cared enough about it to collect a few movie related things here and there.
Probably my favorite Star Wars merchandise was the Super Nintendo game series. Those games really did a good job of capturing what made the movies great.
