015 Star Wars (1977)

I was seven years old when my father and I stood in line at the movie theatre to go see this show. It was amazing. The opening scene with giant space ship was the coolest thing ever. I remember thinking that the storm troopers were robots because of their plastic body armour, but C3PO and R2D2 were the best. The rest was all a blur. I've seen the film dozens of times by now, and I love every minute of it, but it doesn't evoke the same emotion. It's dated. It can't help it. It's a science fiction show full of special effects. The effects are so much better now in the newer pictures, but it still deserves to be on the list. George Lucas had a vision, and it was beautifully realized in this film.
