Took my grandmother to the theater to see Return of the Jedi.

She loved the speedbike chase scene through the trees on Endor. She talked about that for days afterwards, was amazed at real it seemed.

She was 80 when she saw that. Was like a little kid seeing a movie for the first time. A very fond memory of mine.

was amazed at real it seemed.

30 - 40 years later, the original 1970's /1980's Special effects are still impressive and still look real.

Ironically however, ~15 years later the 1990's / 2000s "Special Edition" add on effects look cheesy and dated.

I remember going to the drive-in to see a double bill of “The Island of Dr. Moreau” and “Star Wars” with my mother and grandmother.
