Ever had this thought about an upcoming movie?
And then I would feel guilty for putting my entertainment desires ahead of God's kingdom.
Shameless!
I hope Armageddon doesn't come before the new Star Wars movie comes out

Oh man, when I heard about the prequels back in the 90's I said that. "1999? 2002? 2005? The new system will be here by then. WHYYYYYYYY?!?!?"
Of course then I saw the Prequels and because of Jar Jar, I wished Armageddon had come so I wouldn't have been so disappointed with George Lucas adulteration of my childhood dreams.

I worried that ARMAGEDDON would come before "Return of the Jedi" was released.
What was that? 32 years ago?
I think "this system" will still be here when "The Force Awakens" comes out.
CAPPYTAN - same sentiments as you when Phantom came out with the JarJar character. ARMAGEDDON didn't come fast enough!

That may have been said about Gone With The Wind or Citizen Kane.
We can't really ask anyone that might have had those fears.........they're dead.

I suspect that George Lucas read the old "Babylon the Great has Fallen!" book, ate a pepperoni pizza to cure a hangover, then came up with the Star Wars idea. I mean, there are too many similarities between Star Wars concepts and WT lore such as:
Jedi Council- Governing Body
The Force- Holy Spirit
Sith Lord- Satan
Empire- King of the North
Republic- King of the South (iron and clay toes of the Daniel image)
Light Saber- Sword of the truth
Jedi Knight- Kingdom publisher
Padawan Learner- Bible student
Armageddon- Galactic Death Star battle
Please tell me that I'm not the only one that sees this.

lol.. I really used to think about that when I was growing up since we had to wait like 3 years in between them. Now I feel the same way but instead its "I hope I don't die before the sequel trilogy is completed" screw Armageddon. -

I was convinced the big A would come before i turned 18 so i would then have to live with my parents longer. I am now almost 50. -

Funny post.
I have thought that about reality shows and movies for about 15 years - "Hope Armageddon doesn't come before ... "
We're such idiots.
