    I think the only one I've seen in full was the first Star Wars (several
    times - the first being in 1977 or 78, after a frantic ten-mile
    high-speed dash to the cinema with a car jam-packed with young birthday
    party kids, one of them having been delivered by its mother to my house
    over half an hour late). We got in just as the title introduction was
    rolling.

    As for the others (nowhere near as good as the first), I've probably
    only seen bits on TV.

    The original one was probably the best, and of course a lot of it was
    filmed at Elstree Studios.

    Yeh that one was good, but in terms of sci-fi films "Dark Star" is the
    real deal.
