What prequel movies?

:p

Also to add to what was said, I only started thinking about the first movie as "Star Wars" when i started lurking on these forums. It does feel odd when I read people referring it as "A New Hope"

Yeah, given that that's what it's been called since 1980 I can imagine it would feel odd. Again, if you're really, really compromised in the mental department.

1981, and only on the opening crawl. None of the reissue posters call it that, and none of the early video releases do either. Even the Special Edition didn't use it on the posters.
