1. What were your expectations going in Episode I?

I can't clearly remember what exactly my expectations were. I assumed it was going to be great, I know that much.

2. What did you think of the trailers released in 1998/99?

Enjoyed them.

3. Did you read any SW Insiders magazines, spoilers on the internet? Anything from them that stuck out to you?

At that time, I was 10, and didn't even use the internet until about a year after its release. And I never picked up any magazines back then.

4. What did you think of the hype in the Spring of '99, as it seemed like every entertainment show was talking about the first SW film in 16 years?

Even as a kid, I remember finding the hype borderline annoying.

5. Did you collect any of the toys, or the merchandise from Taco Bell I think? or was it Burger King?

I collected a BUNCH of the Pepsi cans with the different characters on them.

6. When did you finally see it, opening night? opening weekend? wait for the crowds to die down and saw it later in the summer?

I saw it pretty close to the premiere, but not opening night.
