Awesome job of capturing the moment -- thirty years ago, but you left off one thing:
> Then the camera pans down to reveal a planet, and just when you get your mind wrapped around that,
> a space ship tears across the screen,
We heard that ship before we saw it, and we heard it behind us. Today with multiple, inexpensive 5.1/7.1 systems in our homes we take it for granted, but 30 years ago I was BLOWN AWAY!
The worst decision I had to make back then was whether to watch in 70mm (amazing visuals) or surround sound. I never did see in a theater with both.
