John Simon, New York Magazine: “Strip Star Wars of its often striking images and its high-falutin scientific jargon, and you get a story, characters, and dialogue of overwhelming banality, without even a ‘future’ cast to them. Human beings, anthropoids, or robots, you could probably find them all, more or less like that, in downtown Los Angeles today. Certainly the mentality and values of the movie can be duplicated in third-rate non-science fiction of any place or period. O dull new world!”

Joy Gould Boyum, The Wall Street Journal: “There’s something depressing about seeing all these impressive cinematic gifts and all this extraordinary technological skills lavished on such puerile materials. Perhaps more important is what this seems to accomplish: the canonization of comic book culture which in turn becomes the triumph of the standardized, the simplistic, mass-produced commercial artifacts of our time. It’s the triumph of camp — that sentiment which takes delight in the awful simply because it’s awful. We enjoyed such stuff as children, but one would think there would come a time when we might put away childish things.”

my GF's parents went to see Star Wars on its opening weekend in 1977. The dad liked it, the mom thought it was stupid and was bored the entire time. They said they had no idea at the time it would become so huge.

My dad never let me play with Star Wars shit as a kid because it would make me a "gay nerd" apparently, but all it led to was an unhealthy obsession with Nazi Germany which, while odd to him, was deemed at least acceptable.
