Honest Trailer for the first 'Star Wars' sees your nostalgia goggles


The 1977 Star Wars may have kickstarted an entire sci-fi blockbuster industry loaded with unnecessary special effects and bad plots, but the first one was a pretty good movie at least, right? Maybe not, according to Screen Junkies' Honest Trailer for the first Star Wars film (nope, we're not calling it A New Hope either).

Let's face it, we all had major nostalgia goggles for a movie that had some pretty silly scenes and one pretty lame lightsaber battle. But at least it was better than all the special editions George Lucas kept putting out that filled every inch of the frame with badly-rendered CGI creatures and ruined the movie.

And always remember, kids: Han shot first.
