It was probably when I was at Disneyworld once (we were in the Star Wars section of the park; someone was actually dressed up as Vader and giving out autographs, what fun. :), and I saw a copy of the PT novelizations (in one book) in one part of the store. Let's say I was already interested in Anakin's story from what I heard, so I picked it up, gave it a read and bada-bing! Hooked! That, plus watching the Original Trilogy again and getting to appreciate the finer nuances this time around. Because honestly, aside from my brother joking about Darth Vader sounding like a Dementor from HP, I don't remember much about the last time I saw ANH. And I was unfortunately already spoiled for ESB because of the TOY STORY 2 parody of the twist at the climax (you know, "I am your father"), so that plus reading the PT novelizations first...yeah. Not exactly what you call the "ideal" way to get into STAR WARS, but...what the hell. XD

That's an unusual way to get started ;P

Oh...wait! I didn't mention that I knew the spoiler about Vader being Luke's father. C'mon, by the time I got around to see the saga, I just wouldn't have known that if I'd been living in Mars ;)

Hahaha... Vader sounding like a Dementor?! LOL. I don't recall hearing a Dementor speak :-S

It was a double whammy - Visual Vader and Literary Novelizations - who could resist? It's always interesting to read anecdotes about the beginning of SW allure.

So if I'm understanding this correctly you came into the Star Wars fandom much later in life???

*is one of those sad people who's been a fan since like FOR-EV-ER! No lie, I'm pretty sure it's a toss up between Han Solo and Indiana Jones as my first crush.*
