There are many films released every year, but few have anything like the impact that Star Wars first made on the world when the first instalment (at the time, confusingly called Episode IV: A New Hope) was released in 1977....

It actually wasn't called that at its release - the opening titles were changed to add the "Episode IV" at the film's first re-release to theaters. If you saw the film when it first came out, it didn't say Episode IV.

Yeah, for real. It never said that at the theaters in 77'. My sister was/is a bookworm geek, and that's the ONLY reason I knew it was the 4 movie in a series of 6 (and didnt care - just wanted ALL the action figures/etc) and I didn't find that out til The Empire Strikes Back hit the screen ...
