May the 4th Be with You!

It is hard to believe that Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope premiered in 1977! Wow! That is A Long Long Time Ago! The special effects were out of this world and from then on the Star Wars movies and characters were loved by millions – including me. Star Wars has become part of our culture. It was the first movie that I saw multiple times within a short period of time. I think I saw it 6-7 times during its initial showings and have watched it many many times over the past years. I am a bigger fan of the original 3 movies (Episodes IV, V, and VI). I went to the prequels (Episodes I, II, and III) but to me – they were not as good as the original 3 episodes. Coming in December of 2015 is Episode VII! Most of the original cast will be in Episode VII. I am hoping that the movies is more in the spirit of Episodes IV, V, and VI. Either way – I will be in line to watch this movie when it comes out.

My favorite character? Yoda!

Happy Star Wars’ Day!
