That very last sentence. Whew. What a little bit of foreshadowing there. Fuck marvel.
The fact that I spoke the dialogue with them unprompted tells me all I need to know about ho long this movie wwill last. I saw in in High School a month after it came out. I;ve seen it over 500 times snce.
Too bad Chewbacca didn't have a better agent. I bet if he'd learned to speak English he would have had quite the the Hollywood career.
i first saw Star Wars at the Springfield Mall theatres in springfield, VA. there was a line that wrapped around half the mall. that same line was there for Return of the Jedi. it was worth it.
The first films were the best! Garbage afterwards.
Ugh, Star Wars sucks. I was 9 when it came out. Never liked it. Jaws was and remains so much better, IMO.
Well, Hollywood didn’t forget about serious pictures. They’ve kind of forgotten about escapist fun, though.
Star Wars is about lucifer and his rebellion against God.
2024 Hollywood did forget that some people want to see serious pictures too
I was 12 when I saw Star Wars with my dad on August 12, 1977. I will never forget that day - my dad didn’t like sci-fi but he knew how much I wanted to see this movie so he took me.
Why didn't he say anything about Star Wars being Woke? Every star wars I've seen has been woke.
Corded headsets?
This is back when Siskel and Ebert had their show on PBS before they sold out and went into syndication .
Oddly prophetic.
Not only special effects being groundbreaking, but when you see the camera angles coupled with that great John Williams score, you feel like you are right there with them!
Both of those two nitwits sucked......................
*They didn't catch this either I guess...* at 1:24 Luke is going down a ladder... (in the movie, Han climbed up a ladder) Anyways at 2:47 Luke looks at Han exclaiming "I got him" however he is looking to his side... not up where he should be looking.... the only explanation is the ship happened to be sideways at that point, but that is unknown.
Nothing more laughable than old special effects.
Never got why this movie became such a phenomenon; the soundtrack is about the only thing I like about it. It was fun to see such an old episode of Siskel and Ebert; I grew up watching their (often opposing) film reviews.
all this tech, and no auto-targeting systems...
My father took me to the premier back in the day. I was eight, and it was a formative experience for me, pointing me to a lifetime of sci fi enjoyment and ideas.
Amazing under-expected movie. I had a similar feeling before watching From Here To Eternity. Wasn't interested in a romantic movie with Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr canoodling on the beach but you give in and are thankful you didn't hold firm to stupid assumptions. FHTE is gritty and brutal and heartbreaking like SNF.
It’s amazing how old Star Wars 4(one) looks futuristic as much as it appears ancient .
I was only 6 or 7 when Star Wars was released. I loved the soundtrack as much as the movie. I bought the record and played that LP endlessly.
To appreciate what a game-breaker Star wars really was you should watch Logan's run it came out just the year before and while it did not win an Oscar for its special effects they were highly praised. It's not a bad movie however next to Star wars its effects are laughable
I'm fond of saying "when I get to heaven I want the answers to two questions. 1. What's the deal with the right side of the brain controlling the left side of the body? 2. How many times have I seen Star Wars?"
"Millions and millions of years ago"??
? This isn't that cool.. Cuz he just said "Star Wars broke Box Office...." So?..his opinion or prediction isn't that cool. Its Already a hit! Lol? Smh. Like watching an old Siskel & Ebert episode the first weekend of Pulp Fiction? That's cool watch
I believe that the Aisle and Ebert review of Star Wars WHEN THE FILM WAS RELEASED (not this re-review) had Ebert trashing the film. The guy was a clown without makeup. The original Star Wars, is by the way, the only movie of that series that I really enjoyed. The others were poorly written and cashing in.
Great movie. It's too bad they didn't make a sequel.
Loved it back then! Remember, Han shot Greedo first! Today’s versions are so forgettable now.
I'll wait for the book to come out.
they forgot.
Pinball?! Oh how times have changed.
Since i saw the in the pictures aged 7 I've probably seen this 100+ times.
At least they got this movie right. No wonder why they died a little too young cause they never took care of their health. Movie critics suck. 😁
May 25, 1977, I remember. Wednesday. When 1 movie changed everything in film.
I'm 61 and have never watched the movie.
I hope Gene was happy with Empire Strikes Back
Do I see 2 golden legs on c3p0?
Siskel was always a moron, somehow his pomposity shone through every time.
So where is their original take on Star Wars? Bet they shredded the movie hard the first time they reviewed it, then saw all the money it made and changed their tunes.
Had to re review it when it turned out to be bigger than they thought. Couldn't be wrong now
Star Wars??? Never heard of this movie.
If this movie was made today,Leia what figure out what a supreme girl boss she is, toss on space suit, and singly handedly kill every tie fighter. Then the critics could say how worthless all the men in the movie were
This is all great and all…but don’t forget the next thing we saw was “The Star Wars Holiday Special” which caused deep emotional scars to an entire generation of 12 year olds.
I was 4 years old. The the BEST Sci-Fi/Adventure franchises to date!!
This movie is great and even on par with Ray Milland and "The Thing With Two Heads" !!!
the critics that made movies weep
Even just the way the gunner seats move seemed authentic and sensible. Such great escapism, there's a reason this franchise is still relevant today (though with varying success capturing the magic of the original).
