That Star Wars film. It would have been interesting to see what turned Anakin into Darth Vader.
I wonder why George Lucas never made one.
NEVER, do you hear me? N.E.V.E.R.

but at the time, they were pretty groundbreaking. The story scope, the subject matter, and even some of the 'not very' special effects were unheard of.

You had a deprived childhood which is why you're a bent spastic now.

I am the right age to have enjoyed Star Wars as a child.
I thought it was great and sometimes pretended I was Luke Skywalker.
I am now an adult and no longer get excited by it.
Hope this helps.

Up till Star Wars, the only sci fi available was hokey 60s camp like Star Trek, Lost in Space, Blake's 7 etc. This was the first time sci fi went 'literature' in its scope. Certainly the first time it did it in a blcokbuster way.
EDIT: I'll just DMAAKM then shall I?

I've always put the appeal of Star Wars down to it being bloody good fun more than anything to do with originality. Heroes you want to be and properly evil villains. As a kid. It's basically a Western with much cooler weapons and spaceships, but I don't see how that can possibly be a bad thing.
