    I can't wait... I just hope they don't mess with the robots... Gypsy was my favorite next to Crowe.

    If you get the Comet network in Louisville, either on cable or on one of the digital subchannels, on one of the weekend nights they run a couple of
    episodes of MST3K.

    Nope I don't have that one... but think I may be able to get some of them off of Amazon's firestick.

    The kickstarter raised $6.3 million. Joel posted an update a couple
    days ago, and has kept everyone in the loop pretty regularly. I'm
    guessing it will hit Netflix this summer or fall with 14 new episodes.

    You also see Jabba in the New Hope where Han climbs over his tail.
    This is not in the first movie either. There are many other things
    that have been added. They even fixed the "Physics" of the space
    flight where the stars move now in the proper direction as a ship flys.

    I loved that little part of Han & Jabba! Also really like Han's, "Jabba,
    you're a real human being" or something to that effect. Really makes the
    line stand out as a 'dig' at the mighty Hutt. :-)

    Didn't notice the star changes.

    I think the star changes were done in the 1980's video tape box set release. It's had a lot of enhancement through the years. The origional had the most unconvincing explosion of the death star ever, that was one of the first corrections in the 1980's when the digital effects got better... before that the explosions were on par with Battlestar Galactica which I think may have gotten a clean up in the 2000's when the Ron Moore reboot happened.

    The effects on the first star wars were primitive and they have spent a lot of money through the years to make it better.

    The first movie with really kick ass space CGI was The Last Starfighter, one
    of my favorites.
