Awesome job again. Packed with information that even someone who has watched a lot of these hadn’t heard before, particularly about the edits and the very early drafts. I predict you will end up with lots of subscribers.
@@TheMoneypresident I know. I watched it. But I'm wondering what bits from Dark Star were used in Star Wars? Bits were used in Alien, sure. But Star Wars?
I truly believe that when Star Wars came out, it helped begin the healing of a nation wounded deeply by the Vietnam War. Our country split apart by political divisions, government falsehoods, and just a general malaise that was cast over America. Not even the Bicentennial Celebration the year before would really help quell that angst. Star Wars made us FEEL GOOD! It made little kids dream of adventure and faraway places. It's deeper philosophies would emerge as the "Children of Star Wars" grew-up. Was it a panacea for all what was wrong in the World? No. But the World is better for it having been made Thank you George!
Yes. I wrote "re-release" in the title. Sorry about that. I qas having some weird technical issues with the original one and was considering erasing it. The only issue was all the fans who already saw it. 😁 oh man. Sorry. I have a new episode on Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country which will be released tomorrow. I appreciate you for watching out for newly released videos! 🙂 Thank you!
Entertaining - but at 1:45 Ralph McQuarrie is called Lucas' "old friend". Then a second later, it says they met the prior year. Just a little bu||sh*t to make the narration flow?
This movie changed my childhood! 😅
Me too! 😀

Thank you so much for the kind words. I am finishing up Star Trek 6 The Undiscovered Country today. I should be able to release it by tomorrow.
@@TotallyAwesomeFilmsPodcast you’re welcome. Now, about that English is not my first language AI voice…
Wow, it inspired all those amazing, genre defining, iconic movie making, legendary directors. And Kevin Smith
Haha! Nice dig at Kevin Smith. Made me laugh out loud! 🤣
Bits were taken from Dark Star.
@@TheMoneypresident Are you thinking of the movie Alien, by the same writer as Dark Star?
@hgwells1899 no I said Dark Star. It was before star wars.

This was a great video. I learned lots of stuff I hadn't heard before.
Thank you for the kind word! Please checkout my other videos and tell me what you think.
Terrific video! You could go into the making of the special edition effects.
Thank you so much for the kind words. You made my day!
Basically agrees with my rankings. They were all good movies, but some were better than others.
Thank you! It's nice to see some fellow ST4 love!

What a great comment! I think we can certainly use something uniting like Star Wars today!
@@TotallyAwesomeFilmsPodcast Thank you. I appreciate your acknowledgement.
George Lucas - Marcia Lucas = the Prequels. She has never gotten enough credit for her contribution.
You are so right. That is proof of Marcia Lucas' contributions to the Original Trilogy.
Is this a reupload? Seems like I watched this the other day.
