From the comments:
I showed my dad the Harmy Despecialized edition last night, and immediately following the Tantive IV boarding fight, he said, “Wow…” I turned to look at him, and his face is wistfully nostalgic. He elaborated, “This is the first time watching Star Wars that I can actually remember seeing this in the theater. It’s like I’m right back there. I can remember everything. I was actually worried about my bike getting stolen outside before I remembered that was 37 years ago. That’s never happened before.”
Movie magic is powerful stuff.
That just makes me so happy :´-)
