The Empire Strikes Back-Special Edition - 10th Anniversary

Postby Jedi Power » Thu Feb 22, 2007 11:51 am

10 years ago yesterday marked the release of The Empire Strikes Back-Special Edition! It was great to be seeing the Star Wars movies all together within a month and a half's time and on the big screen. Waiting in line to be with other fans to see the first show was great! The newly revised movie included new CG effects and locations. We got to see the new Wampa scene, and a longer approach to Cloud City on Bespin which really gave us a feel for the city. It was a great time!

Its mind blowing to me that the special editions are turing 10 years old. I can remember going to see ESB in theaters like it was yesterday. My how times flies. :D

I agree with you that this was very neat to do. I also thought that for newer fans of the films it gave them the chance to see how great these films were on the big screen which they missed the first time around.

When the special editions came out I only thought it was Star Wars ANH that they'd added new stuff too - I was that disconnected from SW - so didn't go to see the other two films. It would have been good to do so though. The date of 10 years since that time is a bit of a surprise to read too.
