Was amused to hear Dr River Song quote the Admiral in this weeks episode of Doctor Who.

I'm not sure if this topic is still about childhood misconceptions, but the biggest one for me is definately liking Jar-Jar as a child, and I thought Qui-Gon's name was "Key-Gon"....

Man, I was 25 when TPM was released.

Back in the day, I thought Owen said "They will be held a pay" instead of "There will be hell to pay". I thought the droids wouldn't get one of their paychecks for working on the farm because they had gone missing.

Silly, the Republic's anti-slavery laws don't apply to droids!

There is no lingerie in space…

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

The Republic didn't have anti-slavery laws in 1977. There was no Republic in 1977.

I didn't realize until I was about 10 or 11 that it was "Darth Vader" and not "Dark Vader".

I have no idea what this is, but it says "Trap," so there you go.

Just in case this is still a thread about childhood misconceptions....

When I first saw the promotional photos that came out prior to the release of ROTJ, I thought that the new death star was just what was left of the SW ds after being blown up.......yup.

And when Luke cut off Vader's hand and I saw the wires I (briefly) thought "oh my God darth vader's a ROBOT!" I also, briefly, thought that it was Ben underneath Vader's mask when Luke took it off (now THAT would have been a twist!). ;-P

I can top that. For years after having seen the movie, I was under the impression that they were just rebuilding the old one, and the giant hunk missing is all the damage you could expect from a mere explosion caused by the chain reaction of a small, thermal exhaust port.
