    Over the past few years, I've listened to LOTS of different SW podcasts, read countless articles about practically everything Star Wars.
    A great many have more often referred to the books, films, comics, etc. as a universe.
    At the beginning of each film (saga, that is) we're told it is a galaxy.

    Thoughts ?

    Probably just a pet peeve ...

    Well, the words have different meanings in this context. "The galaxy" is where SW story takes place, and "the universe" is everything SW related. The galaxy is part of the story, the universe includes the story.
