So basically your mum was a video pirate...

You still had a betamax player in the early 90s and 2000?!

I was born in '81, so my first viewing of Star Wras was on VHS, taped off the TV (it must have been around '85).  I loved those films and had all the action figures.  I remember my copy of Star Wars screwed up (in typical VHS Fashion - lines across the screen, lots of noise) at the point where the Commander is telling Vader that 'holding her is dangerous' and now I always expect the picture and sound to f*ck up at that point even if I'm watching it on DVD.

Eventually I grew up and sort of forgot about Star Wars, but then I rediscovered it in the early 90s when I was 12 or 13(watching the same dodgy VHS recordings) and enjoyed it on a whole other level and it's stuck with me ever since. 

F*cking great movies.
