Yo-Yo Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 This is cool. The full version of the 1977 documentary that aired on ABC shortly after Star Wars: A New Hope premiered in theaters, and it's pretty amazing to see how the world saw the film before it was a legacy, before the sequels and the piles of merchandising and video games.

Rowsdower70 Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Very cool stuff. I THINK I saw this years and years ago, but I must watch again.

Atari Adventure Square Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Yeah, Star Wars mania was a whirlwind of excitement as a 10 year-old. This video takes me back to those times of feeling like a space adventurer every day, at the mere glimpse of my Star Wars bedsheets, or Kenner toys lying around, or the Death Star playset in the living room, or the wookie sticker on the fridge...
