![]() May 25, 2017 - 6:23am | May 25 1977 Star Wars released to theaters. The Space battles we're unlike anything we had seen and totally awesome. Everyone wanted to be Han Solo, have a Wookie companion and fly around in the Millennium Falcon. We collected Star Wars trading cards and had action figures and science fiction was changed. It didn't matter that at it's heart Star Wars is a fantasy- it looked like science fiction and it was cool. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

Not to spoil the story, they stay and survive just barely. -iggy |

Such was the case in the "Silent Running' thread. I know artifical gravity is a sensitive subject on this forum and should have keep my thoughts to myself. It seems like everytime I open my mouth, I end up killing the threat. So I wish to apologise for that right now. |

It was one of the early sci-fi movies that certainly inspired my love for Star Frontiers. I enjoyed rewatching it despite how dated the music is.

You know the cover of Zebulon’s Guide, featuring a character in a bad ass suit of powered armor. Joe Cabadas |

And Patton the movie probably does a better job than most conveying history. But I wonder what will be "history" for Millennials? The Matrix?
