The amount of trivia that you must handle to be able to understand the latest movie is mind boggling. Disney should do education, because I would need to watch and study all the previous movies, which is probably a year worth of work, before I can watch subsequent releases. Perhaps not as hard work as studying linear algebra, perhaps, but still a lot of person hours involved. The amount of information that the average fan retains about Star Wars is mind boggling, compared to their, say, knowledge of world geography. I am also in awe of sports fans in a similar way. They command large swaths of dry, boring information such as world series stats with great enthusiasm.
