More importantly....seeing Star Wars not "A New Hope", not Episode IV but Star Wars.Lagmonster wrote:I like, "Whippersnapper Busters".
And it would be fun to wander off somewhere and talk about actually seeing Star Wars on its first opening night, before you had to share a lineup with twits dressed in costumes made from black plastic piping and a bedsheet. Or how thankful I was when the eighties came around and people stopped wearing so much damn brown and orange in their ensembles.

Considering the sheer abundance of "snot noses" around here I doubt there are a whole lot of people who saw The Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi in the theater during their first runs either.

I really like The Maiar. They were after all, guides of the development of middle earth. Hell (I think Gandalf was Maiar, right? Or a derivative of...) He lived for 800 lifetimes of men. Heh. Miar also sounds very sophisticated. If it comes down to a vote to actually establish a forum for this particular usergroup, I support it. Older folks need a haven where they can get together and chat without the ever present "Beeotches" and other slang that seems to burn their eyeballs. Damn whippersnappers. I'm 26 and I still...oh fuck it, who am I trying to kid, I'm 12. have been for the last 16 years.

I really DO like that suggestion.
Gator and I remember it showing up at the matinee over in Humbolt (BTW there really isn't shit to do in Humbolt, but the movie theater was good.
yeah, I still remember back when it was just called Star Wars, the first time the camera panned down the starscape and the normal sized Sci-Fi space craft then you see the tip of the persuing vessel. And it was just WHOA!

Oh yes, that is one of the memories that stuck with me, watching that SD start as a tiny point and grow... and grow... and grow........ And then the first appearance of Darth Vader, the only truly BLACK object on the screen. (Stormies were white, Rebels were gray)The Yosemite Bear wrote:I really DO like that suggestion.
