Thanks for the heads-up. That looks great! Now I must find the plain old trailer in it’s present neglected condition (the more scratches & fade, the better) for an A-B comparison.

On thing about the trailer itself, though. GL has always tried to inject his juvenile humor into his films. Problem is, R2-D2 falling over, hitting the ground, sounding like an empty garbage pail (what’s this foolery? Lost In Space? where’s Dr. “oh the pain” Smith?) surely lost many a viewer from even bothering with this bad/laughable thing called Star Wars.
