There will be guests ranging from Stephen Colbert to Peter Jackson.

 

Sounds interesting.

Wish I could have been there when it first came out in 1977.

They also will have people like Nancy Pelopsi and Tom Brokaw too. Even Newt Ginrich.

I was there in 1977--I was 16--uhh ohh did I just reveal my age. I had only had my driver's license for about 6 months. I drove to the movies in my 67 Mustang (Note--movies were much cheaper then--a movie, popcorn and Coke did not require you to sell a kidney or mortgage your 1st born to afford them0. I can't remember if I took a date or not--if I did it would have been one of the few of my high school career.

I was 14 and saw Star Wars at the Keith-Albee theater in Huntington, WV. My mom dropped my 4 younger brothers and sisters off while she and a friend went to the mall. I still have the Star Wars promo book from the movie. Later, on the radio on the way home, we heard Elvis had died.

They showed Newt Ginrich way too many times during that documentary. I think that he's trying to get the geek vote for a potential presidential run.
