Happy anniversary, Star Wars!
May the... aw, you know.
A long time ago (30 years ago today) in a galaxy far, far away... actually, for me it was the old Fox Theater on Route 347 in Setauket, on a screen the size of a battleship... a little film called Star Wars was released.
Worlds lived, worlds died, and the cinematic universe would never be the same again.
As for us, we here at ComicMix will be pulling up all sorts of personal memories all day, along with other Star Wars oddities we find on the net, and John Ostrander is already out at Celebration IV in Los Angeles signing copies of the new Star Wars: Legacy
But really, how could we be bigger fanboys than Steve Sansweet? He literally wrote the book on the matter.
In the meantime, to kick things off, here's a little bit of what we love about it.
Congrats, George. Love It. So when's Clone Wars coming out?

I'd like to thank the people at Star Wars Celebration IV for supporting my students in the making of their Star Wars cartoon. They have been the best. www.starwarsisourpassion.com

BRAVO! John Williams couldn't have done a better job conducting. Now will somebody please ask the nice Stormtrooper to point his weapon away from my head?
All jokes aside, excellent footage. Has Lucas himself seen it? More importantly, have you considered expanding upon the concept: like having different orchestras "play" different tracks? Maybe some comedy in the middle like Tom and Jerry's The Cat Concerto, their romp at the Hollywood Bowl, or Bugs Bunny's Rhapsody Rabbit?
Just a (serious) thought...

This will be a day long remembered. It has seen the end of Kenobi; it will soon see the end of the-- oh, sorry. Wrong rant.
