AH! Memories!

So, 1977...
I was 9 years old when this came out, and I can still remember waiting in line waiting to get into the theater to see this one. Me, my brother, his friend and my Mom were there. I can even remember sneaking in for a tiny bit while the movie was still playing for the previous show, to breathlessly report that they were loading "some robot into a spaceship". My Brother's friend says, "Oh, that's R2-D2".
So started a good 20+ viewings of this film. This stuff never gets tiring. I hadn't actually seen it in a while, so it was quite amusing to tie it in with the later (well, earlier neener neener) movies and what not. I was like, "there's no WAY Lucas had one movie in mind!" because I was answering questions that IV offered that the other movies gave! So this was a GREAT course in movie history, and worth watching if this is your first... or 32482th time using the force.
