I was not born that year, the Cultural Revolution had just ended, but Hollywood had opened its first cinematic universe.
There are republics and there are empires. The era that opened was the era of empires that suppressed the rebels everywhere, and the biggest weapon of mass destruction was the Death Star.
I only watched this series in my final year of college when I was graduating in 2010, and I watched almost six of them at once. Until the restart of the Star Wars movies "The Force Awakens" and "Rogue One" in the past two years, I watched it again.
Forty years ago, the Hollywood special effects surpassed the fifty-cent special effects of our domestic films now by fifty years.
The plot is simple. Obi-Wan used his own death to inspire Luke's hatred for Vader. According to the plot, Obi-Wan can repeatedly appear to give Luke guidance when he dies. He did not die, and his soul has been floating in the universe. The Force will always protect you.
The Death Star is a bug, the first generation of the Death Star needs to be built and needs to be recharged for a long time before it can be launched again. And the weak point is throwing bombs at the exhaust vents into the core reactor.
The third generation of Death Star II has been upgraded a lot. It can be launched before it is completed, and it can be launched at any time, and the charging time is shortened. But the weakness is still so obvious. Because the construction was not completed, the spacecraft flew directly inside and blew up the reactor.
The weakness of the Death Star III in "The Force Awakens" is still so obvious, and it was still bombed by the rebels.
The amount of information given to this pioneering work is relatively large, basically the way of governing the country of the Galactic Empire - fear, all the rebels have always existed.
At that time, it was all fresh meat, and it is estimated that there was no martial arts instruction. If I were to shoot again now, 120 minutes would definitely not be enough.
