Yeah but if a number of people in the bay area are thinking they saw this thing, doesn't it raise the question that maybe that DID see something?
Today I decide to ask someone I know about the double throw grappling hook scene. This person is not a star wars fan, nor is someone one who has read the Marvel comic or the novel and has never owned a Star Wars film on VHS or DVD.
Q: Do you remember the scene in the first star wars from the 70's in which Luke throws the grappling hook?
A: yes.
Q: what do you remember?
A: Luke throws the hook... misses... then throws it again and it makes it.
Q: Where did you see this?
a: I don't remember..... must have been on TV.
Then I told them that Luke throws the grappling hook only once and they said they remember the double throw. I then told them about this forum.

this rises questions and it is where do people said they saw the Extended original cut in the theater. If a good number of people say the same theaters (or same cities) then be strength to the people clams.

Did this tv version include any other deleted stuff?
I don't remember other deleted stuff in this 80's TV version.
I have not watch the OOT version of the first star wars film in years.
I going to hunt an old VHS tape on-line and watch it. Hopefully I will watch with the person I ask the questions to. Maybe we will find other things.

But what if there was a version of it around before people were doing much recording stuff on vhs tapes?
Well the 80's TV version was around the time of people recording stuff on vhs tapes.
The thing is why would somebody keep hold of a 20 year VHS tape of an TV version.
It is like this: I one had the 90's OOT sci-fi channel version hosted by Billy Dee Williams, but I do not have it today.
The only hope is that a tape of 80's TV version with double throw grappling hook scene pops up like the star trek episodes with william shatner hosting I came across at second-hand store. The internet is no help in finding it.

If I were any good at photoshop, I'd consider making a parady of Mulder's "I WANT TO BELIEVE" UFO poster from the X-Files, instead using a blurry picture of Luke's grappling hook missing, or Han talking to Jabba.
That is good.... hell, I'll make it and another one with a blurry picture of Han shooting first with "I WANT TO BELIEVE" too.
