I think they fall into 2 categories:

1. They have seen a Star Wars movie and just say they haven't. (Liars)

2. Assholes

I fall into the third. I saw the first three as a kid, liked them well enough but liked the action figures more, and never really fell in love with the SW universe so I stopped caring about the rest of the movies. I'm more of a Blade Runner / Solyaris slow-burn sort of sci-fi movie fan. Just a legitimate difference in taste even though some SW fans take it personally for some reason, as if I'm casting judgement on their choices. (I'm not, except to say Lucas is a terrible writer and should have turned those duties over to better people while sticking to universe-building.)

Not really a fan of the Star Trek stuff either, though I did get into DS9 for a while.

Edit: One of my close friend's husband spent months re-editing "Star Wars" -- or all three original movies, I'm not sure -- to make it more exciting. Or something. We still managed to get along just fine despite the constant threat of a nerdgasm drowning us all.
