Because Thirty Years Out, It’s Still a Great Movie

Posted By Ardellis on May 26, 2007

The original Star Wars came out the summer I turned 12. Impressionable young geekling that I was, having been raised on Star Trek and JRR Tolkien, I was mightily smitten by the Force. It was the first movie I ever begged my parents to take me to over and over again. After we got cable TV a few years later (I was in high school), I watched Star Wars over thirty times in one month on The Movie Channel.

Yes, I know how sad that sounds. All I can say is that it was on very high rotation, it was summer, and I was a geek. This was back when geeks weren’t cool. Especially girl geeks.

Anywho… That movie came out 30 years ago this weekend. And it still rocks. (The original version. We will not speak of the tweaked up, Greedo shot first bastardization George made out of it later, will we?)

So here are some bunnies reenacting it.
