Todays marks the 30th anniversary of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Or as know to all Original Trilogy fans..... Star Wars.
on May 25th 1977 I was 7 years old and my brother took me to see this crazy movie. I had NO idea what was in store for me and I can tell you that I still get chills when I think abou the first time I saw this movie and the Star Destroyer came onto screen chasing the Rebel Blockade Runner "Tantive IV" I loved this movie so much I hid in the theatre and saw it twice. To this day I still watch the original trilogy with a sense of Awe for what was brought into my childhood imagination.
Thank you George Lucas. and I dont mean for the Prequels....
A Long time ago, in a galaxy far far away.......
It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire.
During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the Death Star, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet.
Pursued by the Empire's sinister agents, Princess Leia races home aboard her starship, custodian of the stolen plans that can save her people and restore freedom to the galaxy...
So what are you? Take the Poll!!!
Happy 30th Anniversary Star Wars: A New Hope
