    This Phantom Menace might cause an Attack of the Clones for the Revenge of the Sith, I sure do want A new Hope before The Empire Strikes Back, Maybe we’ll get a Return of the Jedi by the end of this StarWars

    And absolutely nothing else.

      Reminds me of when Leia said to Luke that there is a new hope now that he joined the rebellion.

    Is this one of those things Lucas had put in the script but someone wiser changed and didn’t tell him?

    One of my favorite Red Letter Media quotes referring to the opening of Star Wars:

    “We know everything we need to know just by the visuals. Rebels. Empire. We got a sense of how small and ill-equipped the rebels are and how large and powerful the Empire is. The low angle implies dominance, and the length of the Star Destroyer implies the Long Reach of the Empire. This shot says everything we need to know without saying one word. In fact, this is so genius, I have a feeling that George Lucas had nothing to do with it and probably fought against putting it in the movie.”
