re: Those who saw the original Star Wars trilogy in the theaters..

So many good recollections posted and I can relate to all of them as I was born in 1970. It kind of makes me sad that my kids grew up in an age of instant gratification and short attention spans. The anticipation of things like the ESB and Jedi, Christmas morning, family vacation trips, etc. were huge parts of a kids life pre internet and social media. Kids just don’t get real excited about anything these days. We have a spoiled society where nothing is exciting to kids unless it can be used as a status symbol to garner attention on social media.
