Hello, and welcome to "Studies in Star Wars Fandom," which explores the different kinds of strange, Star Wars Fan specise. Today, we are going to consider the four most prevelent SW Fans in the gallexy.

Book Fans These strange Star Wars speciese can often be seen walking around while shopping with their nose in a Star Wars book or graphic novel. Some of them have been observed screaming "THIS WASN'T IN THE BOOK!" or "This was totally better in the novel" during midnight showings of Star Wars movies.

Movie Fans These specimins like to watch and learn all the lines to every SW movie ever. Some of them don't know there is a whole other relm of Star Wars beyond the movies. You can tell the Movie Fans apart from other fans becaue they have a tendency to say things like "attachment is forbiddion. possesion is forbiddion. compasion, which I would define as unconditional love, is central to a Jedi's life. so, you might say, we are encouraged to love," in the middle of a conversation about something being attached to you by velcro.

Video Game Fans These are the fans who know Star Wars from the point of a character. They play video games non-stop. Such strange fans are awesome because they sometimes break into fake-video game moves in the middle of a normal day, pretending to kill you with a lightsaber.

Action Figure Fans Probably the most interesting and strange fan of all, these Action Figure Fans are the kind of grown men and women who ran through Walmart on May 1, 2006 in order to be the first to see an Anakin Skywalker Episode III action figure. You can tell them apart from other fans because...well, they're the ones playing with dolls.

All Of The Above Fan There is the rare fan who is all of the above types of fan. This fan has multipul-personalities and, depending on his or her mood, has different characteristics. Sometimes, on a very good day, you can see this fan walking around trying to read Dark Lord, play Battlefront II, watch Episode IV and play with his clone trooper all at the same time.

So which kind of fan are you?

May the force be with us all (Mace Windu, Episode III)
