In 1977, the world was changed forever as young visionary director George Lucas brought us the first movie and fourth episode of a yet to be created series, Star Wars: A New Hope. Made for $11 Mil, this movie went on to gross a bazillion dollars, spawn several sequels, toys, religion, tv shows, video games, books, and even Ice Capades type shows, resulting in a kagillion bazillion dollars, cult status, and a dedicated, creative and interestingly dressed fan base. What else can you say about the movie that started it all except holy cow has this become a world wide phenomenon. But does A New Hope hold up? Listen as Jon, Colin and Brent go waaaaaaay back in time to a galaxy far away and see if rebellion is a bunch of idealists who just want freedom and are willing to do what it takes to put down the evil empire, or if the Empire is right and just trying to install order in the galaxy and the rebellion is a terrorist faction that sabotages space stations to destroy them, murdering thousands of innocent workers just trying to make their way in this big strange galaxy.
