A short time ago in a theatre not so far away…

I was a “Star Wars” fan from the moment I first saw the Millennium Falcon go to lightspeed, and the story completely took me over. I was 8 when I first saw it, and hoped there would eventually be more. When it was announced that a second movie would be coming out, I was elated. With anticipation I waited for “The Empire Strikes Back”, and could not believe how much better and more mature the movie ended up being, with one of the best movie twists ever. With the availability of the entire saga now, people seeing it for the first time may lose some of the magic of that particular moment. For the fans who saw it as it was released, it was a moment about which every fan was talking.
