Topic: How Old Were You When You First Saw the Star Wars Movies?

just like the title says, my question is how old were YOU when you first saw the star wars videos. I was 6 when i saw the first trilogy.....i loved them and haven't stopped watching them since!!!

I first saw ANH before I can remember, my mom told me that. But the first time I can really remember seeing ANH and ESB, I was 6. And I loved them. I didn't see ROTJ till the SEs. TPM was in 2000, when I was 13. And AOTC and ROTS I saw in theaters.

i saw ROTJ, when i was 3 at my Grandmas and my aunties.

Older than four younger than 8

My little brother saw it when he was 3 or 4.......pretty young......it was because i watched them soo much.

I saw bits and pieces of the trilogy when I was very young. Then I saw Episode 1, then 2, then 3, then 4,then 5, and finally 6. And I still remember when I first saw Boba Fett.

I saw the Original Trilogy when I was very young.

probly my third oldest memorie is seeing the probe droid come out of the snow.

Probably in the womb.  My parents used to be huge nerds.

Does this mean you consider SW lovers nerds? I would argue otherwise if that's what you mean. My mom never really got into it, but my dad loved it when he was a kid and secretly (i believe) still has a great love for it.

I prefer the term fanatic, but yeah we can be pretty nerdy about it

Yeah, I once called a gun a blaster :) . I also prefer the term fanatic.

i prefer fanatic also......it doesn't sound so retarded....lol

                                                               MandalorianSpy9

Nah, fanatic sounds obsessive.  Personally, I think nerd is a compliment.

nerd......a compliment.  Wow, i've never heard that one before. I guess i can't say that anymore......

some of us are obsessive and i was five when i watched ANH

I saw parts of Return of the Jedi when I was really little, but I didn't see the whole trilogy until I was 10 (the special editions)

I remember seeing Star Wars (the original one in the '70;s) for the first time when I was six years old.  It had just come out and was at the drive-in theater.  I remember it was a double feature.  After Star Wars, they played the Bad News Bears (again, the original Walter Mathau version).  Pretty good stuff.  I tell you though, watching it in the theater (Special Edition) really beats watching it with those little speakers you had to hang in the windows of your car at the drive-ins back in the day.

I had seen bits and pieces on tv and vhs. Then the special editions came out when I was around 7 or 8. My dad took me to see all of them. From the first "A long time ago in a galaxy far far away..." I was hooked.

I was about 6 when i saw episode1 and 6 or 7 when i saw the trilogy.

I was 7 when I first saw EpIV at the movies.:D

I first saw ANH when the special editions came out and then empire and then jedi. From the first scene in Jedi with fett till his supposed death in Jedi, he was my favorite.

The first time I saw ANH was when the Special Editions came out in theaters.  So I couldn't have been older than 11. I was kind of forced to see it, at the time not liking Star Wars *grins sheepishly* but after I saw it, I found out I liked it...and here I am.

i saw the OT when i was 7 and they were horrible since theyb weren't the Remastered versions i thought they were cheesy but loved them.

The OT unremastered was a piece of art. When porkins died that was a real explosion filmed somewhere. Not a CGI rendering. Something actually exploded.

Me too.

i went to see the first movie at the cinema.it was one of the high points of my life and i was in high school.i can never forget that golden 1970a star wars summer.i did not think about anything exept star wars for months.it made life in a dull north london suburb and a red brick school full of people i did not like ,bearable.

age five I think.  watched it every day for the next year (365 times in one year!) ehehe I wore out the tape

I thought I'd answered this one, but apparently not. I think I actually saw ROTJ first. I was about five, maybe younger. I loved the Ewoks. Probably saw the other films first but I can't remember.

Mind you when I did see them all I thought it so unfair that Luke didn't get the girl. But it would have been gross since she was his sister. :P

I was about 4 years old when STAR WARS came to the theaters in the small town in Iowa where I grew up.
I can still remember the impression the Lightsaber left on my young and very impressionable imagination. My family tried in vain to convince me that they weren't real, but to this day I still bear a grudge against Santa Claus for bringing me fake-ass TOY Lightsabers instead of the real thing as I demanded.
I made my father take me to see it. I made my mother take me. I made my grandparents take me. I went with cousins, and I went with friends. Later that year I started Kindergarten and it's all we talked about.
I know for a fact that from "EMPIRE STRIKES BACK" to "REVENGE OF THE SITH" I was at a theater on opening night.
One of the aforementioned cousins I grew up watching them with later attended M.I.T. and is now a resident chemist for Johns Hopkins in Baltimore. He is working hard to come up with a working real-life Lightsaber... at least, that's what he tells me.

4 or 5 when ANH before it was even known as episode IV ANH was a movie premiere on telly.
I'm 30 now,lol.

The first time I was introduced to a SW movie was when I was when I was five or six. Or maybe seven. I only saw from Dagobah on, but I decided that it was my favorite movie. (That lasted all of one month!) The first time I really saw SW was Valentine's Night in 2001. My Dad created a monster! :) :D  And wasn't my mom happy about that!!

3 years old and I saw it on the tv. My family is a Star Wars family, and I get into arguements with them because they don't like Boba. :(

I saw ANH when I was 5 I think.  dad's a SW geek like me, and he likes Fett too.  I couldn't convince him to join the boards though.....

I was 2.  In fact, my very first memory is of the line of X-wings locking their S-foils.

ANH when I was like 6 or 7.  My first memory was Chewie.

I too saw the special edition ANH when it came to theaters. My dad started me on Star Wars with that movie even though I don't remember it at all, guess something as good as SW just sticks to ya whether you remember it or not
