Star Wars Rogue One is still playing in movie theaters.

RE: Star Wars Rogue One is still playing in movie theaters.
(March 26, 2017 at 5:42 pm)Cthulhu Dreaming Wrote: "Star Wars" - before "A New Hope" or "Episode IV" we're pulled from George Lucas' ass - ran at my local cinema for eighteen straight months.   For much of that, it played exclusively in the large (1000 seat) auditorium.  People waited in line for hours to buy a ticket only to wait more hours for a seat.   This wasn't opening weekend, this was months after release.

People who weren't there, I'm not sure can really grasp how enormous of a cultural impact that film was in 1977-78,.but I thing Rogue One gives you all some inkling of it.

I have to say that Rogue one, for me, is on par with Empire: definitely in the top three of the Star Wars movies.
