We found out earlier this week that, in honor of Star Wars Day on May 4, Lucas Film was releasing Return of the Jedi in honor of the 40th anniversary of the film. So, we decided to see it.
It was the first time that Bri and Kiff saw one of the "Original Three" in a theater. And, it did not disappoint. It was an amazing show...as always. We all enjoyed it. In fact, I had never seen an Original Three in the theaters with Emmie. I did not realize just how much she loved the Ewoks.
It is funny that I actually picked up on something I had never seen before while watching this movie. Both Obi Wan and Yoda disappear when they die - which must be a Jedi thing.
When we left, we did hear some people who were a little disappointed at the updated graphics (which had actually been in the movie since they were updated right before The Phantom Menace debuted). They were definitely upset that a new ending song, instead of the weird Ewok victory song, had remained in the updated version. I, personally, am happy that it was. Back in 5th grade, when I saw the original movie, although I did not know what the word meant, I knew that the song was soooooo anti-climactic to what happened in the movie.
