I seem to remember it being there when I was a kid, prior to the re-release. Can't say for 100% sure, though
I only saw Star Wars one time until I was in my forties. Wish I could comment, but I guess that would be not very accurate. Damn!
Seriously? That's nuts. Especially considering your level of fandom now.
Yeah. I had to make that confession. I knew the story intimately through books/ comics / trading cards and such, but if I saw it again before a few years ago, then I dont recall. When I got the remakes of the movies, I knew immediately something was wrong, despite not having been on Star Wars websites. I sat there on the couch, stewing over how not to be negative.
My brother passed away a few years back and I had to dig through tons of pictures when we were kids. I found this photo of a huge set up we had made of Tatooine out in this lot by our house. We had done a hell of a number with about 50-75 action figures.
I have much to say about George Lucas, but it boils down to me seeing him like Churchhill; he was a great leader for WWII, but perhaps not for the long term. George needed some checks and balances and didn't get them. Where I would credit Lucas is that he has kept Star Wars family friendly . My 6 year old daughter has seen most Star Wars movies and that has been ok for us.
