Greedo doesn't shoot first. In fact he doesn't shoot at all.

I had a feeling they were going to do this after Marcia Lucas passed away.

Excuse the old article posting, but this is still relevant due to the upcoming release.

[T.B. Yoits]

Maybe they'll have an theatrical release of the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special.

I saw it with Chinese subtitles in a downtown Taipei movie theater in 1977 with the Republic of China national anthem at the beginning that we all had to stand for or create an incident. “Star Wars” wouldn’t get to the base theater for at least another 6 months. Can’t relive that whole experience.

So they’ve gone from making great movies, to making mediocre sequels and spinoffs of great movies, to doing inferior remakes of old movies, to just re-releasing the movies of yesteryear. I guess that’s what a dying movie industry looks like.

It was a good shoot, the only option possible since the guy already had a gun on him and had him under his control, at least he thought he had him under control.

My friends and I were in the first theater group to see the first showing in Champaign, IL that day and for all of us it was a near religious experience. We were stunned and amazed by what we saw, I returned seven times in the course of three days. From our pov it was a turning point in cinema history.

Here is the original shoot, it is obvious why none of us thought anything was wrong with it, it was a standard cowboy tv show shooting.

I never understood what the new title, A New Hope, is referring to. A hope to defeat Darth Vader and the empire?

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Which one?

There were about three different cuts that got released IIRC.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Uh, when George Lucas is allowed to present any film unedited, it usually becomes a boring slog. I’ll pass.

[escapefromboston]

Might be the only decent Star Wars film Disney will put out lol

[butlerweave]

How many times have they released Star Wars ? How many different versions are there ? LOL

[dagunk]

1977, Bitburg, Germany.

Saw it in a German theater downtown with a couple beers and a few smokes.

Good Times.

But what about the trans community? How will they be represented?

[UnwashedPeasant]

By the time I find where the tickets are available, the Star Wars nerds will buy it out.
