Star Wars is now 44 years old and more than 5 days long

Today is the 44th anniversary of the premiere of the movie Star Wars. This was the movie that was eventually called Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, according to its place in the Star Wars Skywalker saga film lineup and Original Star Wars Trilogy. To be entirely fair, Star Wars was promoted before May 25, 1977, and previewed to some very lucky individuals before this date – but May 25, 1977 was the day the movie opened to the public. Since then, one whole heck of a lot of Star Wars has been produced and released to screens both big and small.
The Original Star Wars Trailer is Just Awful
In the early summer of 1977, the original Star Wars hit theaters and revolutionized the way movies are made and consumed. It’s still the biggest movie of all time. Sure, other movies have far surpassed its box office take by now, but Star Wars set the standard for big summer blockbusters, and its formula is still being followed.
Judging by the original trailer for the movie, I find it a wonder anyone went to see it at all. It’s a good thing FOX didn’t give up on it and eventually found other ways to get people hyped, because my gosh, the original trailer is just awful.
