On a side note I've probably seen Star Wars about 80 times, no I'm
not kidding. Only once in the theatre, my parents took me when I was a
little child. I have the ILM book, and from what I've read they've gone
through a heck of alot of work to rerelease it.
I've also seen it too many times :)
I'll always remember the first however ....We saw it in a mid-sized
theater (Me, a friend and my half-cousin Karen) in Brampton. I have no
idea ow I got my moter to take us that distance. It's not really tat far
away but Brampton was a place we didn't really go when I was younger. It
was strange because Karen had bought a Shawn Cassidy (!!!!!) poster and
record (she was about 2 years older....but I still think it was crap.)
I'll never forget the Star Destroyer cutting across the entire screen in
the first 5 min....WOW!!!
Opening night... I'll be there.
Dittto, I have a friend who is a cineplex maniger and I'm going to call
in favors for this baby I think...
Sorry if anyone thinks this is a bit offtrack but George Lucas had
strong influences by Japanese film (Akira Kurosawa). I'm sure there are
dozens of term papers on this subject, but I'll leave that to the
intelectuals among us. Suffice it to say I consider Star Wars almost like
live action anime.
Ya, "The Hidden Fortress" a really cool movie in it's own right but the
princesses voice still takes getting used to. I love the 2 "Farmer Teds"
which will become r2d2 and c3p0

I met a Lady in the Meads,
Full beautiful, a faery's child,
Her hair was long, her foot was light
And her eyes were wild.
