Yup, it is that time of the year when yours truly feels a tad nostalgic and goes digging for old movies to watch. Usually triggered by extreme boredom and loneliness, this particular episode made me dug up some old VCDs of Star Wars given to me as a birthday gift by an old friend. These are the newer versions of the movie, with improved CGI and sound but they’re not the latest. The newest version of Star Wars has a more current Emperor Palpatine in The Empire Strikes Back as well as Christen as Anakin Skywalker when he appears as a Force apparition at the end of Return Of The Jedi.

I’ve said this and I’ll say it again; the old Star Wars trilogy is so much better! Everyone acted so well, even the unnamed characters in the movie showed emotions unlike the new digital crap put out in the recent years. One good example is the part in Return of The Jedi when Vader broke the news to the sorry Emperial officer that the Emperor was going to come on board the newly constructed Death Star. Boy did they guy show a good panic face. It is these kind of little things that contributes to the overall quality of the trilogy.

By the way, there’s a new animated Star Wars movie coming out soon. Seems I caught the Star Wars fever early.
