I just saw STAR WARS -- it's really fun! (spoilers OK)

Hey! I saw that movie! It was awesome! Wouldn’t it be wicked cool if that Dark Bader guy turned out to be like, Luke’s brother or something? Or maybe he is a robot. And the Depth Star!? That was cool. I don’t get why it said “Episode IV” at the first though. Did the other three already come out? What were they called?

Tron will be playing down at the Metroplex next week, I gotta see that! It will be sooo cool.

I just saw it, it was great. My friend said he saw “Episode IV” along with the title but I don’t think it was there. Anyone else see this? That’d be pretty weird to start in the middle of the story!

Ten-four good buddies

Well, mum might let me go, and she said I can have a whole dollar to buy something for myself that day! Do you think I can get a BionicMan action figure for a dollar?

Wow, I love CB Radio, there’ll never, ever be anything better than all this free-for-all where you can talk to strangers about all sorts of stuff.

-BabyBear, over.

Yeah, well I’m going to see it again and again.
That’ll make three times.
Hey, that’ll be some kind of movie-watching record!

Man, this movie sucked! Chewbacca was just stuffed in there to appeal to kids, but he was super-annoying and he never did anything useful. The dialogue was stilted to heck and back. Honestly, Luke (Hamill) and Leia (Fisher) never really hit it off.

Worst movie ever. Nothing but a special FX tech demo.

I agree smiling bandit. Smokey and the Bear is a far better movie that will be appreciated for years to come, unlike this schlop.

I didn’t like that scene in the bar, where that Solo guy shot that alien guy. There was no need to do that, which makes Solo a bad guy. It would have been much better if he had been doing it out of self-defense. Or did he? It happened quite fast, so I may have remembered wrong.

I just came back from the theater… I wanted to see Star War but instead I decided to watch Return to Boggy Creek. Now there was an exciting movie.

Gotta go watch the latest installment of Spcae:1999. Man that future looks pretty cool I hope I can get a job on the moon base then.

By the way those guys with the Video machines must be filthy rich! The only people I know who can afford those things are School boards!

Don’t forget Robert Vaughn! And it’s written by a guy from Schenectady. It will be magnificent – seven times better than Star Wars.

You folks really think there’s going to be a sequel? Where would they go with it.

I really hope they expand on the whole Jabba-the-Hutt, Greedo, Han Solo thing. It would be neat if we actually saw a scene where Han has to explain what happened to Jabba himself. Overhearing him and Greedo talking about it didn’t make sense. They really need to do it twice.

I wonder what Darth Vader looks like under that helmet. I bet he’s a big bad intimidating dude under there.

I went to see Star Wars recently too, but I get really freaked out by loud noises. I was sittin’ pretty with my raisinettes when the screen said something like “a far time ago in a galaxy long long away” or something, then O MY GOD! STAR WARS! BLASTING TRUMPETS!! AAAH AHHHHHAAHH! Raisinettes everywhere.

I ran away, that movie is too scary.

Hey, am I the only one who thought Star Wars was going to be a movie about dueling Hollywood divas?

(Gag based on a real-life factoid – Fox marketing had nixed the idea of using “Star Wars” for the title, out of fears that women would think it was about dueling celebs. After SW became a big hit, those marketing reports were burned.)

IANAW, but when I first heard the title, I thought it was something along the lines of Battle of the Network Stars.

I wonder how much of that amazeing technology they use we will REALLY have in 30 years.

Y’know what this movie really needs? Lots and lots of toys based on the characters and vehicles and locations. Then we can go out and buy all of them and take them all out of their packages and lose the tiny plastic guns and other accessories and get 'em all dirty and scratched because it’s fun to play with toys, woo hoo!

Guys, I’ve been reading this and thinking about the Dark Vader guy. I don’t think he is Han or Luke’s brother, or anything like that.

What if they made it that he was Luke’s DAD???

What do you think, or am I just being stupid again?

Sir Rhosis

You know, I’ve been thinking about the whole Jedi thing. Wouldn’t it be cool of a bunch of people got together, and pretended they were Jedis? It could be awesome. I mean, it could be a whole new religion or something. And maybe we could even hold conventions, where everyone dresses up as their favorite character, and walks around. That would be so fun!!! I’m going to start working on my costume right now. Hey, you don’t suppose someone might make replica light sabers, do you? I was thinking, that might be hard to make at home. Wow. I’m so excited. This is gonna be cool. I’ll bet eveyrone else will be envious of us and our cool costumes. We’ll be so popular with the ladies. Ok, I’m off to the fabric store now…

No, no, no, that would NEVER work. Ben SAID that Luke’s dad was DEAD! Remember?!

Duh!

Yeah! Vader, Luke’s father? You have got to be kidding! That’s the silliest idea for a sequel I’ve ever heard. Besides the undeniable fact that Kenobi said that Vader betrayed and murdered Luke’s father, Luke’s uncle Owen knew Luke’s father. What are the chances that a Galaxy-spanning despot like Vader would know a backwater bumpkin like Owen?

And besides, if Vader was Luke’s dad, why did he let Luke live on a godforsaken planet like Tatooine? Why, Luke’s mother would have had to have hidden him from Vader since before he was born! How likely is that?
