Now it really does feel like “a long time ago….”
Almost thirty years ago this month that Star Wars debuted, celebrated here with the original trailer. What’s funny, though, is that as antiquated in some respects as it looks, it still looks more exciting, even in that trailer, than any of the later three, and indeed most recent films. I got goosebumps just watching the trailer, though I suppose much of that is my inner eight-year-old, remembering what it was like then to see something on that huge screen that so thoroughly fired my imagination. I have at least to thank George Lucas for that.
