His bother brought him back to mom and she fixed him up.
Like I said, I've given up trying to explain the sequence of all the Star War movies to my son. He's too young and hasn't seen them all.
I do have to admit, I do find the clone wars cartoon not that bad LOL
I still remember seeing the very first Star Wars (it's very first release LOL) with my mom at the mall and being blown away. Without looking, I believe it was around 1977, perhaps a year after Jaws. I use to live around where they filmed Jaws and that movie FREAKED me out. My dad still jumps EVERY time the head falls through the bottom of the boat LOL
God, first sign of old age, reminiscing.

I think unless you were there it is so hard to describe what the summer of 1977 was like. I was 5 years old, but i just remember it was the must see movie for EVERYONE! It didn't matter your age, your taste in movies, chances you would love it. The movie stayed in theaters all summer long through the fall and I believe up to Christmas. The funny thing about that time was without home video, the movie theater was the only way to see it cause you had to wait years for it to make it to TV. lol
good to know that the Star Wars mayhem wasn't just in my head.....lol I was 7....
He was putting a ton of heat down on his employees and having a gigantic head because of his fame
The guys producing Star Wars 1-3 were not under the lets create something great feeling they were under
you'd better do what I say or else and aren't you proud to be part of George Lucas's Team

These books were awesome... it could make some awesome movie material tbh
Plus, Thrawn was a Chiss!
I love that scene, ROFL.
Watch the cartoon, Este. He's alive and well. I like the cartoon, but that part is stupid IMO.

I understand entirely - the prequels are alright, though Jar Jar Binks is just plain annoying.
What bothers me is how much changed between the original trilogy and the prequels, though. If you read the novelization of Return of the Jedi, using the original movie script, you'll find that much of Revenge of the Sith no longer makes sense. Anakin's wife had never told him she was pregnant, which is why Darth Vader never assumed previously that he'd had children - she left him before she could tell him since he'd already turned to the dark side. She was on Alderaan with the Organas, and lived there with them and Leia until she died while Leia was young - which is why Leia says in Return of the Jedi that she can remember images of her mother, and Luke can't remember anything (since he was on Tatooine with the Lars family, who were original Obi-Wan's family and not Anakin's step-family). Then when you think of the other prequel movies - Yoda was supposed to have been Obi-Wan's instructor, but they made him Qui-Gon's Padawan.
So yes, I definitely prefer the originals - and while I do enjoy the prequels, the inconsistencies tend to aggravate me when I watch them.

Yeah, I wondered about Leia's comment in Return of the Jedi that she could remember her mother when her mother died in childbirth in the Revenge of the Sith. The discrepancies aren't suprising, though, when you consider the number of years between the originals and the prequels.
I always wonder about continuity errors like this, you'd think if you lived and breathed a movie and made your whole career off of it, you might remember details like who died when and how it impacted the upbringing of their children.
