Repeated word in the "Star Wars" prologue

Answer:

FAR

Hint:

Think of the famous opening crawl’s first line and the word that appears twice to describe a galaxy’s distance.

Explanation:

The "Star Wars" opening crawl famously begins with "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away," where the word "far" is repeated for emphasis. This clue points to that repeated word, which is simply "FAR." It’s a direct reference to the iconic prologue that starts every main "Star Wars" film.
