Regardless what talentless Hollywood writers do with reboots, they cannot diminish the impact of the originals. Originals shaped us. We grew up with them. They taught us about heroism and humor and lighthearted fun. They remain a piece of us now. Reboots cannot diminish impact.
Ben Hur taught me an awful lot about faith and the virtue of patience. Return of the Jedi taught me a lot about self sacrifice. Lessons remain, regardless of how modern writers have twisted them or how the original financial backers hoped to cash in.

I’m not going to get STAR WARS tattooed on my face and buy General Leia tampons. That’s mindless fandom and consumerism. But I am going to hold dear the lessons I learned from the original stories, lessons which continue to serve me well today.
