Movie Marathon!

Who: Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Arsene Lupin III, Ami Mizuno, Adele Leblanc, Leonardo, Gambit, and anyone else who has the desire to show up.
What: Star Wars Movie Marathon
When: February 21st to whenever its done
Where: Luke and Ben's place
Summary: Luke and Ben have decided to just end the constant cycle of confusion and actually WATCH the Star Wars movies. There is soda (gasp!) popcorn, canned tea, and all sorts of other movie related nonsense.
Rating: PG, same as the movies (Could get PG13? doubtful)

This was when Lucas was of a 'less is more' mentality when it came to storytelling. There have been multiple updates and re-releases of these original three but- watching these in a theater with my father is one of my fondest memories. They are more compelling for the simplicity in effects.

Its funny, you know. I've heard that from several people, that the ones we just finished weren't as good. This...seems more primitive, but have more...heart?

And...[He trails off as he sees himself for the first time...a much younger, more naive Luke Skywalker who had NO idea what was going to happen in less than a day's time

Wow. That...takes me back.
fleurdesel: center, smile, smirk, flirty, sarcastic (I doubt it)

The way the narrative is depicted is cleaner, clearer, I think. He uses the characters to convey the importance of the story rather than special effects.

[She can't help but smile at the young, optimistic Luke on screen. Shades of that young man are still present in the Jedi Master in the room with her, and she is glad that even with all Luke has lived through he never lost it.]

Its true. But...you know, its hard to believe I was EVER that young.
fleurdesel: left, smile, smirk (Ignore my smugness)

No one ever does when they are presented with their younger selves on film.
