Today PRJ shot some final scenes for 5-25-77 at the Genesee theater. I think some establishing wide shots of movie goers standing in line for the film premier that the main character can't get to in time. http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/lake-county-news-sun/news/ct-lns-waukegan-scoop-st-0710-20150709-story.html

Funny how there's going to be scenes where all of a sudden the actors look 8 years older.

Final shots? over a decade after this was originally supposed to be released? what a travesty this has been

I hope it is better than the version I saw in 2007. Which I remember as being very boring. i went in wanting to really like this indie flick but left feeling it was a great idea but
was not executed properly. Hopefully within the last 10 years they hired a better editor and like Star Wars, saved it in the editing.
American Graffiti nailed the early 1960's teenage generation's zeitgeist...
DAZED AND CONFUSED nailed the mid 1970's teenage era...
And this HOPEFULLY nails the zeitgeist of us original Star Wars fans seeing the film for the first time...
Hopefully they can pull some magic out of this post-production nightmare.

It still never got released.

They should just burn the negative and call it a day.

8 years ago?


wow, how long have they been working on it? it's not that bad, watching the beginning of it now. I don't get why it took so long.
