  • Best film of all time

    By monkas, this is lit bois
    Yes, I have seen this movie easily over 100 times and I’m 24. I LOVE this movie. There are elements to every genre. Action, comedy, romance, suspense, a little horror sprinkled in, mystery, and tragedy. Then one of the most quoted (though often incorrectly) lines in movie history. And one of the best plot twists too. It’s scale in environments, battles and the Galaxy as a whole from ANH is nothing short of impressive, for something that was already a phenomenon at the time. It’s practical effects like stop motion walkers and Taun Tauns, as well as puppets give this world character as well. This in my opinion is the greatest movie ever made.

    How do we not have the original theatrical version to one of the greatest sci-fi films of all time? Nobody wants this remade garbage.

    This is another of the crappy CGI versions from the 90’s. PLEASE release the ORIGINAL theatrical versions without the crappy changes’

    This was the very first Star Wars film I watched. I watched this movie when I was seven; right before Episode III came to theaters. The Story was awesome and the characters were cool! This has been my favorite movie ever since.
