Wow.. takes me back to waiting in line for this at the Mann Chineese Theatre in Hollywierd.

And I know this it the original trailer - but I swear that you'd think it was a poorly done fan vid nowdays.

The temp music track they used for this trailer makes you wonder how successful Star Wars would have been had John Williams not provided the final score.

I love how they hadn't gotten around to coloring in the lightsabers yet.

It's interesting to watch this and try to imagine what people were thinking when they saw this trailer in the pre-star wars world. I think they would have thought it was a trippy sci-fi art film like Barbarella.

Also yeah, UmberGryphon - the light sabers looked particularly weak. Is that how they were before the special edition DVDs came out? I can't remember.

Dag, no these light sabers are pre-original movie. Notice how Dath Vader's saber isn't even red yet. And to vidimeister's point, it's genuinely amazing how boring this trailer is without the Star Wars theme playing in the background. You lose perspective on how great the score really was until you see these scenes without it.

Um, does the V/O guy sound like Shatner to anyone else?
