an advert for ROTJ on VHS in 1986! “Ask your dealer”.

I am glad we don’t have to wait 3 years to see films in the home now.

The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.

A random image I saw on imgur. I love seeing old adverts and artwork for old Star Wars stuff. Very 1980’s cool:

I love the old “triple bill” posters, so simple, so effective, and could still be used for any re-release 40 years on:

That is it! For some years I’ve been thinking about, and looking for, the ROTJ logo that “receded” like various logos for the other two Original Trilogy films did. I thought I had made it up, was mistaken, or saw some fan art somewhere and confused it with what I thought I has seen on an official poster or art. Or some wishful thinking for my OCD-like love for some uniformity.

The triple bill posters! Ha!

“❤️❤️Robert Watts the producer of the original Indiana Jones trilogy and our Honorary President at @SciFi_Archives
reconnects with Harrison Ford at London premiere❤️❤️”: https://twitter.com/GIRODPATRICE/status/1673650502138052608

Robert Watts is also a producer on both Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, and production manager on Star Wars.

Jamie Benning did an awesome 30 minute documentary, “Robert Watts – A Life in Film” on him, in 2018:

He also had a cameo in Return of the Jedi, with director Richard Marquand, as AT-ST drivers:

There are hundreds of amazing and different fan made posters for the Original Trilogy, and there is so much to like. I did find these especially soothing and just nice to look at for whatever reason:

Wedge was great in ROTJ.
