What Was It Like Watching Return Of The Jedi back in 1983

It was cool. Second movie I ever saw in the theater as a kid.

I was 12 years old in 1983. Return of the Jedi was opening up on a weekday. First show as scheduled for noon. My mother dropped me off at the theater around 3 a.m.. No one was in line yet. About 5 minutes later 2 college students showed up. The look of disappointment in their face seeing me at the door was priceless. They offered to pay me $10 each to let them in front to be the first. The next day at school I was telling my class mates about it. Of course there is always one that went and told the teacher. Ms. Taylor thought she would be smart and call me out in front of the class. She asked me about the movie in front of everyone. I said it was great. She then asked what my mother would think about it when she called her. I told her to go ahead she was the one that dropped me off at the theater.
