I've never cared for it. In 1983, I took the day off to be part of the opening day hype. I was so let down that I considered walking out. 20 minutes or so into the film I started having my doubts. 3PO telling the story to plush toys was what finally started the long goodbye. I came out of the theater very disappointed.

I saw it again around 1997 or so. We used to do Lunchtime Theater at work. We'd watch films in 45-minute installments during our lunch hour, in a nice conference room. That's the last time I saw it. It still did nothing for me.

I'll take that as a yes! From the posts of yours I have read so far Anchorhead, you seem to mention the original Star Wars a lot but others not so much. Any love for Empire?
