1977.08.03 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yB-Us17lUE

ABC News coverage of when 3po, R2 and Vader got their feet into the concrete of the Hollywood walk of fame, in front of Grauman's Theater.  This is the second opening of SW at the theater.

Question: Most SW docs when they want to show the popularity of SW they open with the shot of this theater full of people.  That shot must have come from this event, so the question becomes is there any documented proof of what opening day of SW at the Grauman actually looked like?

There's probably archival news footage in the vaults of local tv stations from that day. Maybe someday it will find it's way onto the net.

Lucas and Spielberg got the dip their feet together there in the 1984. I can attest to the fact Steven and I probably have the same shoe size, and George has tiny feet! ;)

Where were you in '77?

Wow! That ought to be our theme song!

 That is awesome. Everything in the lyrics is true.

These lines by George stood out for me...

"But Star Wars will be done my way
I don’t care what you have to say
I think that they should let it go
And they’ll never get the Blu-Ray of the Star Wars that you used to know"..

Hay all,

Had some fun at the weekend with Star Wars Kinect and some friends which ended up with a short video I'd like to share with the world (if only so my friend can be embarrassed/proud of himself!)

That's a couple of years old, but still very cool.

You know of the rebellion against the Empire?

One day we will have properly restored versions of the Original Unaltered Trilogy (OUT); or 1977, 1980, 1983 Theatrical released versions (Like 4K77,4K80 and 4K83); including Prequels. So that future generations can enjoy these historic films that changed cinema forever.
