Was June of '77 to see "A New Hope". When I went out to watch a satellite pass over while ago, she said "May the force be with you">

There were tears streaming down my face, and I didn't know where they came from...except of course I did.

I lose it when we see Leia and Han reuniting. They play Leia's theme and their love theme. I just lose it.

I'm a straight guy, but that's the relationship that resonates most strongly with me. I always feel a little overwhelmed when the are reunited. They had only known each other for a short time during Finn and Poe's escape from the First Order. But when they see each other again, they embrace like long-lost brothers.

As popular as the Empire is with cosplayers and so on, I love the Rebel Alliance because it's built on love, diversity, tolerance, community, and relationships.

They are also both natural comics, and enjoy the battles.
