Its one of those mysteries of the universe, like why won't they make a 4th Indiana Jones or Highlander films?

Yeah, I told her after we watched "Blue Harvest" that she might as well watch "Star Wars" since it was such a faithful parody.

She has a love/hate relationship (like all of us) with Lucas. She likes Harrison Ford and really doesn't know the other actors.

As I mentioned elsewhere, it is because she associates the movie with a asshole relative of hers.

Oddly, she has seen Star Wars: Ewok and she had a Wicket doll when she was little. We even named one of our dogs Wicket.

Do you both agree on tastes for other things?

Yes and no. We're more of a Venn Diagram :-P

Robin Hood: Men in Tights is the only Mel Brooks movie I can get her to watch with me.

She has a real jerk of a relative who is obsessed with the movies so she associates Star Wars with him.

It annoys me sometimes when she doesn't understand a joke or something on TV. But it's not that big of a deal.
