Not long now.
May the 4th (be with you).
Seriously, there will be many Star wars activities that day.

The force is strong with you for foreseeing this event.

wow big generation gap here, I would have been one of those babies in a bassinet at that time :P
still I love the movie and my kids love it. I told them that the next one would probably be a musical because Disney bought the rights and you should have heard what they said :)

I wonder if that was Empire Strikes Back.

I saw Star Wars when I was 6 at the RAAF Edinburgh movie theatre in 1977.  The Empire Strikes Back I saw at the 8th Street Drive In in 1980 in Mildura, Victoria.  And Return of the Jedi I saw in the Regent Cinemas in Adelaide in 1983.  We got the last 4 tickets for that session and were in the front row.  Clearly the original trilogy had a big impact on me because I have almost no memory of my early childhood but I can remember these events quite clearly.

Roobiegal:   You still at Narooma.

(A bit off topic I know).
