It's a matter of degrees. When I start seeing, I dunno, let's go with Thief (another crazy fandom, and I do mean crazy as in I think some of the people in it are literally insane) stuff on friggin' everything from graffiti to off-hand references in everyday conversation that everyone gets, then we'll talk. But worse, Star Wars fandom is almost completely generated through a vigorous advertising regime. The new trilogy, especially, have completely clogged up pop culture and have also had the unfortunate effect of leading people to believe that the original trilogy, which is one good film and two okay films, are unbelievable masterpieces of cinema that will never be topped ever. Not even the Lord of the Rings trilogy has this much cultural cachet, and I'm still fucking seeing Boromir memes all up in my Facebook 10 years after the movies came out.

I agree with your points, but that's a very hipster-ish way to think. It's understandable that you'd get so annoyed because you keep seeing it though.

I don't really think "hipster" has much meaning anymore.

DA Hipster to me means taking notice of what's cool or popular and letting it inversely dictate one's preferences. *shrug*
