To pass a lazy weekend, I watched Star Wars - the original trilogy back to back! Just to give myself a fresh reminder of the plot before Episode 7 lands in December. I must say, I'm truly amazed at how well Episode 4 & 5 has held up against the test of time. The plot is logical and gripping, the pacing of scenes just right, the scripts incredibly well written. The CG looked fairly acceptable and comparable to early 2000 sci-fi endeavours. I still felt the magic when the classic line was uttered "Luke, I am your father!" Have you seen the Original Trilogy? Did you like it? Are you going to see Episode 7?

Can't wait to see Harrison Ford again, he's amazing as solo.

@kevin1877uk Don't know, but it doesn't matter to me. I never saw him as a romantic lead. That role was filled by James Garner years ago.

It's 12/17 for Ireland.. tbh I hope JJ is going to do a good job of this! He did some hit 'n' miss TV series, which are not really bolstering my confidence.

Star Wars 4 & 5 are truly amazing, I liked the first part of 6, then not so much with the later part..

I loved the first three but when Jajabinks turned up in the fourth, that was the end of it for me. Bring back the Ewoks!

Good god! yes! Jaja is the worst invention ever! Also a very wooden Anakin Skywalker.. Vader is waaay cooler! I just tried to pretend EP 1-3 were never made.

I think 5, empire strikes back is by far my favourite out of the lot. Definitely a master piece.
