A long time ago, in thirty-some theaters around the country, a little sci-fi movie about a young man named Luke Skywalker premired. No one expected much from this movie...in fact many expected this movie to fall flat on its face. But by November of 1977 Star Wars had established itself as a blockbuster, and the movie world was never the same. With the release of Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, the Star Wars franchise further cemented itself a masterpiece of film, beloved by children and adults alike. The popular reaction to the release of the prequel trilogy proved that the world's love affair with Star Wars isn't over.
The upcoming years will bring further exploration of the Star Wars stories in books, comics, TV shows, role-playing, and video games...and as a tribute to the phenomenon known as Star Wars, my multimedia this week will be dedicated to songs from the saga.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. So sit back, remember where you were the first time you saw the Star Wars movies. Happy 30th Birthday Star Wars...here's to many years to come of good times.... smile
