    You HAVE to check this out!!

    http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&group=net.movies.sw

    It's an archive of an early sw newsgroup going back to 1983. The general 'movies' group has sw discussions going back to 1981!

    There's some really neat stuff there, including 'I just saw ROTJ' reviews. I was surprised to see that terms such as 'flaming' and 'spoilers' have a rather long history. But no emoticons!

    Is there anyone on these boards who was on the 'net back than?!? Just curious.

    Good Find!

    It is funny how they all thought Steven Spielberg would direct the next Star Wars film.

    What's great is that *nothing* has changed. It looks exactly like any contemporary SW message boards, which is a little sad/funny...

    The early ROtJ reviews are priceless. Some things *never* change.
