Well, Return of the Jedi was '83, I was born in '78, so I probably saw it from a very young age (I'd bet my parents hauled my wee ass to the theatre). I wasn't old enough to see any marketing strategy, I just saw story, Ewoks happened to be a part of that.
Apologies for any topic derailment.
Um, Miles backstory, finally! Although it felt too much like "yeah, we speculated that a year and a half ago, thanks for agreeing with us". They leave this shit hanging too long, "we" figure it out and the official reveal ends up being "yeah, so? We knew that."
I was born in '78
Gack! Star Wars was '77; I was 11. Damn...
Sorry, hadn't contemplated those numbers for while.
Wanders off to contemplate mortality
Franken,
I saw Star Wars with my parents. I was 8...
Star Wars
is the first non-Disney movie I remember my Dad suggesting we see. I thought the poster looked stupid and didn't really want to go. I was wrong. Very wrong.
Especially because I THINK (not 100% sure) that they kept him out of any of the cast or guests listings.
Nope, Jeremy Davies was in the credits this week. Totally didn't register, though.
Didn't register with me either.
Who was the actor playing the character that Miles swindled (and then got his money back). He looked very familiar.
Also, twice in two weeks we've heard "What lies in the shadow of the statue?" Gee -- think it might be significant?
yeah, that was part of my feeling that the ep was repetitive. I liked the ep generally, but I feel like the script needed one more round of editing. How many times did we literally hear Miles refer to the fact that his father left him as a baby?
I mean are viewers being treated as mentally deficient?
BTW, I have to say I would be creeped out touching myself as a baby. I don't think I'd want any part of that.

Maybe they are following Soap Opera rules now. Say everything at least 3 times in 3 episodes if it is important.
Hurley, you so suck at keeping secrets!
My thoughts EXACTLY! Although, maybe the thought of weighing polar bear dung will keep that secret secret.
"You know dude; Ewoks suck."
I liked the Ewoks. Lil guy using primitive weapons to beat up the mean Empire dudes.
I liked how the serial # of the door was pretty much nothing important. Just numbers.

Why do you say that? We have no idea how the guy reading them off got them.
