The sound effects are pretty good too.

All three installments of the original trilogy have been adapted into radio plays and while I've never experienced any of them I would think that media format would really do this kind of fantasy storytelling justice as the viewer gets to imagine the wild settings that go with the sounds instead of someone else doing it for them --- the latter, of course, bound by the often limited technology of their time.
