Star Wars is a movie to be experienced over and over. Without the computers of today, unique characters and creatures were created and brought to life throughout this revolutionary film - Jawas, Sandpeople, Stormtroopers, Jedi Knights, Wookies and a whole host of others. It told a fairy tale of a damsel in distress (Princess Leia) being rescued from a dark castle (the Death Star) by knights in shining armor (Ben, Luke, Han) against innumerable hordes of darkness (the Empire) led by evil villains (Tarkin and Vader) - completed with a climatic battle of life and death between the forces of good and evil (the Death Star battle).
