Stopped watching sci fi rubbish when I was about 10. Think it was when I realised that the Daleks could never rule the world because they came unstuck when trying to get up and down the stairs or navigate a door step.
If you'd have carried on watching TT you'd have discovered that they solved that problem. If they say ELEVATE they are able to hover.
Interesting. Don’t know where I read that it wasn’t as popular at the time and only gained widespread popularity after the other two films in the trilogy came out. Didn’t Alec Guinness dislike it though? I remember also reading that he hated how it overshadowed his more ‘serious’ roles as an actor and got sick of kids calling him Ben Kenobi lmao.
Yeah, I think this is what I read. A New Hope was considered some silly flick for young lads but wasn’t considered ‘serious cinema’ until a bit later.
Think it’s common for some actors to resent roles that they feel overshadows the rest of their career. Stephen Dillane thinks Game of Thrones is a load of silly fantasy ****e yet I don’t think another actor could’ve played Stannis as good as him.
Ahhh Dorchester, lovely memories of that place. First time a lass gave me one off the wrist, we was below legal age. Can never remember the film though, don't know why. I remember it was a U though.
The very first star wars, the only one I've seen was screened at the Dorchester George St. If I remember right it had closed down but reopened for this film only. The queues to get in were huge.
Yeah, come on mods, sort it out (instead of joining in). Or maybe I'll just start posting some 'concerned citizen's aka far right fascist stuff along with some religion = fairy tales stuff to get the thread closed? Seriously though, why aren't mods keeping this thread related to our transfer business - not necessary to close it as some might still want to post about our done business. It's a tad annoying when you come on here to check football / transfer related stuff but have to wade through all this other stuff, especially when there's already other threads for it.
It was at the Dorchester...I seem to recall it had closed by then but they reopened it to show Star Wars as it was the only cinema with Dolby surround sound system
Its organic chat Im ever so sorry its so troublesome its gone off topic 1 week after the window closed
Well there is a link because there is a strong link between Star Wars geeks and far right ideology. It’s thought to be the consequence of extreme bullying in their youths, which makes sense.
Charlie Chaplin's, The Great Dictator? I'm not a fan of sci -fi, and have never seen any of the Stars Wars films, each to their own though. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
