My 3 1/2 year old has recently watched all three - I am most impressed that his favourite is Empire.

A guy at work showed me a clip on his phone of a bloke marking May 4th by pedalling round on a unicycle dressed as Darth Vader while playing the Star Wars theme on the bagpipes!

Surreal . .

Yep, who can remember going to see it at the cinema?

Even watching it now, its still great to watch and I don't think that it could be improved upon by using all the modern CGi tech, in fact the later re-released films with the extra scenes added detracted from the original IMHO

I met Darth Maul once and got him to sign a birthday card for my missus. I thought this would be the most romantic thing ever, but I think I was more excited than she was..... trus story.
