Star Wars Fans

Randy Van Nostrand IV has a collection of more than 1,500 “Star Wars-themed figures at his home.

Blackketter quotes “Star Wars” movies daily and “knows an amazing amount of trivia,” says his mother, Rachael. He loves the “light sabers and action” in the films. And, the music. “I really like the soundtrack,” he says.

Movie line: “What a piece of junk!”

Jar Jar: “I don’t like Jar Jar because he is just really, really annoying.”

Character: “Obi-Wan Kenobi because he’s an awesome Jedi Knight, a great fighter and is a very dedicated Jedi.”

Power: “I would use the Force to always swish a basketball. My weapon of choice would be a light saber. Definitely.”

If you could have any character from a “Star Wars” movie as a best friend, who would it be and why? “I would have Mace Windu as my best friend because he can stare down anyone.”
