It's funny how sometimes when you surf the internet and a pop up screen does actually have something worthwhile.
I saw this first picture and it looked like a weird family portrait until my eyes spotted a young Harrison Ford.
I then realised the tall Frankenstein was Peter Mayhew who plays Chewbacca.
There's also a young Mark Hamil, a carefree Carrie Fisher (she was so hot then, my first crush), a chilled out Kenny Baker ( R2D2 ) and I bet you don't know who that guy with the short tie and 'V' shades is....
His name is David Prowse who plays the Sith Lord, Darth Vader!
Isn't it ironic, the ultimate badass of the universe has a polka dot tie? haha
This is the original cast of Star Wars!
As the movie was released 25th May 1977 in the U.S., I'd presume this picture was most probably taken around Autumn?
Star Wars has to be my favourite movie of all time!
Boy daydream he's a hero.
Meets an old timer who still got the moves.
Mates with a gambler and a hairy non-English speaking sidekick.
Saves a girl who turns out to be a princess, scores himself a cool weapon and learns the way of the Force.
Whats not to like?
