If you like one, what do you think about the other?

I like Star Wars. When I was younger, I didn't exactly own many VHS tapes/ DVDs, but my dad had the Star Wars trilogy (and I owned Space Jam as well lol). Because of that, I'd watch basically Star Wars A LOT. It was an action movie that wasn't R rated, didn't have sex scenes, and appealed to the sci fi lover in me. It was the perfect storm essentially.
I latched on to it and became as big of a fan a kid my age at the time could really be. I had games, a darth vader voice mask, a star wars chessboard, and would draw hypothetical star wars characters in my free time 😅.

Nowadays, I'm not a "passionate" fan like I was then, but I still do really quite like Star Wars. It holds sentimental value and I still do like the story too. It is a movie that stays appealing as one grows older.

As for Warhammer, I actually know nothing about it so I don't have much of an opinion on it. It looks cool-- I just never have checked it out.

[DooMguy]

I like both of them but for different reasons

For 40K there's just so much fluff and backstory, the universe as a whole has got a lot of lore plus the multiple factions make things a bit more interesting rather then darkside vs lightside / empire vs rebels

I mainly like star wars just because of my beloved battlefront, that game was and still is legendary

comander cody/bobba fett = best characters

Also it'll be Christmas soon

I'm currently trying to learn this:

The beginning is tripping me over right now... I can play fast, but not THAT fast.

[mrkdvsn]

I didn't realize that the Alex Jones Show theme song had gotten so mainstream. I hear it now in so many places. Do THAT many people know about Alex Jones?

[helloitsmethere]

@mrkdvsn ummm this is the Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme song)

[Bananaman177]

@mrkdvsn No way, this is Alex Jones' theme song, bro:

No, wait, that's from a movie. Must be this one?

[lime_rampljuset]

What is Warhammer 40k? I've heard the name, but never searched info about it.

[ThisDudeHere]

It's a fictional universe created by Games Workshop for their table top games, but not solely for them. It's filled with lore and story so thick you could get lost in it. But long story short - it's essentially A dystopian future with Gothic themes. Watch this

I like Star Wars but haven't ever really been a Warhammer fan.

[Bananaman177]

You have to be such a mega-normie not to at least like Star Wars, it is really entry level nerd shit. Too plebian for my tastes, though. Warhammer 40k is just fantastic though. You have to be neurotypical as hell not to love the premise at least.

[ThisDudeHere]

If I could have sex with the lore-personified, I would. Slanesh be damned.

[meatballs21]

Star Wars basically lost me with The Force Awakens and throwing tons of Extended Universe material out the window so JJ Abrams (who'd already thrown Star Trek canon out the window to make what amounted to a resume and portfolio to get Star Wars) could do a shitty remake of A New Hope.

WH40k seems cool but I've never really seen or read much about it apart from the very cool artwork, and going with some friends to see ForgeWorld. I do have DoWII on my PC and I need to get around to playing it.

The Emprah be praised!

Orkz get them hots for Yarrick.

[DooMguy]

Orks want the Yarrick? They can't handle the Yarrick

[Chief16]

@DooMguy Yarrick gonna be the new warboss. Just waitin' on the next codex.

[Ripper_E]

I love Star Wars. I watched all the movies, The Clone Wars series and movie, and watching Rogue One in December.

[ThisDudeHere]

What about Warhammer?

[Ripper_E]

Never

[Negrodamuss]

I'm a huge star wars fan. That franchise single handedly shaped my whole childhood

[ThisDudeHere]

What do you think about the Star Wars prequels, the recent movie as well as Warhammer 40k?

[Negrodamuss]

Prequels are okay, nothing too special. The recent movie was great, and I use to play warhammer on the tabletop with real models, but that's the extent of my warhammer knowledge

[jman46241]

Still love Star Wars, but was left a little disappointed by the last installment.. I'll check out Warhammer though.

[Zorax]

Star Wars is one of my favorite franchises, but I like Warhammer too.

[BruceTrails]

I like star wars but Im not so familiar with warhammer 40k.

[disgustingweebtrash]

Star Wars. Never really looked into the Warhammer series

[JohnDoe3000]

I think Star Wars is an amusing modern fairy tale, I find the W40K lore just too depressing to enjoy it much.

[MaLifeBeLikeOooAaah]

Actually I don't like either 😂

I like both, but I like Star Wars better.

[LadyTerror]

I love Star Wars

Star Wars is okay, not a Warhammer Fan

[Anonymous]

Like Queen says in the song Bicycle... "Jaws was never my scene and I don't like Star wars"

[_HimigNgKalayaan_]

Star warsssss!! I've never heard of warhammer 40k

[LeoArdley]

Massive fan of 40k, like Star Wars too

[Dred1614returns]

I like Star Wars

[PerfectDark_Joe]
