Happy 35th Star Wars!!! — Page 2

I gave it no thought what so ever.

Coincidentally, however, I did watch 2001: A Space Odyssey on the 25th.   Somewhat fitting, considering how some of the visuals for Star Wars were lifted from 2001.

Here I went out of my way to think like you and you weren't even thinking like you! ;-)

Sorry.  :-)

 

Maybe I'll watch Star Wars tomorrow as a sort of Memorial to 1977.  After all, it has been six years since I last watched it.  Dare I?

I'll join the chorus of cynicism that Star Wars isn't around for it's own anniversary. Sigh.

No matter. Think back to 1977. You’re in the theater,

Then, the infamous credit scroll — rows of yellow letters drifting away into space. The words “Episode IV” appear. What on earth could that mean?

Pfft! Actually researching a subject before you write about it, why would anyone do that!?

well, i only saw it in the theaters twice.

once in 77 and then again in 79 i think

before empire came out.. so seeing the

episode number made sense then..

It means that you've attended a screening in 1981 instead of 1977.

 

-1, the title Episode IV - A New Hope did appear on the published script of the film in '79, film prints with the redone opening did first show up on the '81 re-release.

We want you to be aware that we have no plans—now or in the future—to restore the earlier versions.

until it got put into the special editions...

the 79 re-release was a special showing with a preview

of empire.. but it didn't have it..
