I'd discover the trilogy in 1995 one summer when my sister showed it to me. From that day forward, I was hooked on Star Wars. I dreamed of it at school, made little han solo and chewie action figures from foil paper, drew x-wings and luke skywalker sketches in my notebooks, and like any respectable star wars fan, had a princess leia poster stapled to my wall... yes, the return of the jedi leia. Ah, the memories.
In 1999, Star Wars Struck Back. The greatest scam in the history of cinema began.
It was known as the phantom Menace... From this point, the lives of star wars fans would forever be changed by the great schism that would break a once happy fandom in two, ironically what the stories for the new movies were about in some ways. A new Empire would be formed by the genius business-man George Lucas... He'd bank on fan's nostalgia to rake in billions with mediocre films. No one in history had accomplished this until then.
We here at the originaltrilogy are now the rebel alliance, fighting for the right to see the originals be preserved, preferably in the best quality. The Emperor Lucas has not been forgiving of course. Without mercy, in 2006, he further tampered with the classic films, upgrading Jabba's cgi, and adding whatever else... Who knows if he'll ever finish his tampering? We do. We know he'll never stop.
help us, 30th Anniversary. You're our only hope! Please Let Lucas see how important the originals were and will be for generations to come.
Thank you for reading...
