I saw Star Wars in 1977. Many, many, many times. For 3 years it was just Star Wars...period. I saw it in good theaters, cheap theaters and drive-ins with those clunky metal speakers you hang on your window. The screen and sound quality never subtracted from the excitement. I can watch the original cut right now, over 30 years later, on some beat up VHS tape and enjoy it. It's the story that makes this movie. Nothing? else.

The chase lasted for more than 25 miles before Lloyd drove off a motorway, ploughed through a fence and continued speeding along another local road.
Now this is NOT Pod-Racing!
Rogue One is redundant. Just play the first mission of DARK FORCES.

It looks like Jake Lloyd suffers from schizophrenia:

How can anything be worse than starring in the 1999 film Star Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace?
^ Lol
That is a shame. I hope that he gets help to sort out his problems soon.
I don't see the need for this to have it's own thread. It's being discussed in the random thoughts thread. And to keep making jokes after learning of his mental health issues is in poor taste.
Where were you in '77?
