The Force is back: Viva Star Wars!

HALLIE EPHRON: I love Love LOVED the first Star Wars movie. Liked the second one. And the rest were a complete waste of time designed, as far as I can tell, primarily to sell lunchboxes and action figures. There were special effects galore but it felt s if they'd hired a wookie to write the dialogue. 

I'm thrilled to hear that STAR WARS: The Force Awakens is getting enthusiastic thumbs-up from reviewers. Can't wait to see it!

So for those of you who, like me, are ready for your Star Wars fix, here's a little quiz to take you back to that first Star Wars experience.

My favorite scene in the movie is the one in the garbage compactor. 
"It could be worse." (Princess Leia)
"It is worse." (Han Solo)

Or maybe the one in the bar when Han Solo blows away one of the aliens.
"Pardon the mess."

Did you love it? Or miss it completely and wonder what the fuss is all about?
