Star Wars-30 year Anniversary
It's the 30 year anniversary of the first Star Wars movie.
Any Star Wars fans?
I've seen just the first three, but not the last three movies.

The last 3 explain the first 3.
I have them all in Beta/VHS/DVD. Even the re-released THX version of the original.
I was in San Diego In June of 1980 and saw TESB when it came out.
Our screens at theatres in Calgary in 1980 had already been shrunk ..so it was treat to see it on the Really Big Screen.

I can't believe it's been 30 years since the first one came out. Saw the first one at it's DC opening, my best friend at the times mom was a congress woman from Colorado she took us to the preimer here. As I recall we were the only kids in the place, rest was filled with political/big wig types.

Now, are those the last 3 that are actually the first 3 but came after the first 3 which are actually the last 3?
My biggest disappointment with episodes 1-3 was the amount of CG that Lucas used. Eps 4-6 were ground-breaking in their special effects, but 1-3 looked like he just hired a few people to sit down and their computers and do all the backdrops and then some. I think it totally ruined the experience that 4-6 created when they came out. I still liked the movies, though.

It was only the profit of several of his hits that allowed for the building of the "State of the art" special effects studio.

It would be nice to take a tour of that facility.

Actually there was a female Yoda creature, her name was Yaddle and she was in Phantom Menace. There has been much debate that thier species may be called the Whills since in the original novel for A New Hope on the first page it says "From the Journal of the Whills" or something like that.
Yeah, I'm a bit of a Star Wars nerd too.
Edit\ Actually I just checked Star Wars.com and now they have decided that Yoda and Yaddle are not Whills. Evidently the Whills are a completely different race, but it was one of their Shamans who taught Qui Gon how to become one with the Force and shed his physical body. I guess there is a couple scenes in the script for Revenge of the Sith where Yoda and Qui Gon talk about it, but they got cut, or were never filmed.
