It was a beautiful Spring afternoon. May 24, 1977, one day before one of the
most phenomenally popular movies of all time broke all box-office records at
Mann's Chinese Theater. (Please be aware, this is NOT the actual STAR WARS
theme!) One day, Carrie Fisher and her friend were looking for what Carrie
thought were presentable dresses, and boy were they presentable! Carrie looked
at a very elegant dress tailored by Christian Dior. "My goodness, Lynn,
look at this dress! Isn't it pretty?" said Carrie. "Wow, it'll fit you
perfectly!" exclaimed Lynn. "By the way, what does it cost?"
"$99," answered Carrie. Lynn said, "God, that's cheap! What is
this place, the Goodwill?" "No, it's not the Goodwill. Let's go
and check out." They did so by going to the cashier. The cashier said,
"$99". Carrie gave the cashier a $100 bill she earned from her mother.
She was received a bag from the cashier that read, Have a Nice Day! When they
walked out the door, Lynn told Carrie, " I gotta go home. My father's
waiting for me at home, so we can run errands together." "See you
later," Carrie said. Lynn got on a bus headed home.
A few minutes later, a black Rolls-Royce picked Carrie up from the Department
Store. She got inside. Then, she hung her dress up on a hanger. She was sitting
beside a man, name of Mark Hamill. Harrison Ford was driving, or didn't want to
drive the car, because he wanted to drive the Millennium Falcon instead.
"I have a really bad feeling about this," said Carrie. "About
what?" Mark asked. "The fact that we'll be being laid eyes upon by
billions and billions of people," Carrie answered. "Oh, that",
Mark said. Before they knew it, they were at a house that Mark and Harrison
bought for $700,000. "This big property for $700,000!" Carrie
exclaimed. When they got home, Carrie, Mark, and Harrison all went to the living
room to play Uno for a while. Since he was the pro at the game and he had been
playing again and again, Mark won most of the games. Harrison felt horrible
because he had lost every game. Carrie, on the other hand, didn't feel horrible.
They all said together, "I'm going to bed. I wanna look my best for the
premiere tomorrow night." So it was lights out for all of them.
May 25, 1977. The big night. Billions of people were awaiting the people behind
Star Wars. Even ABC, CBS, and NBC were at the premiere, awaiting the presence of
the cast and crew. First, George Lucas arrived. The audience went WILD. Soon
Carrie, Mark, and Harrison stepped out of a black stretch limousine, bathed in
thunderous applause so much they couldn't stand it. Later, after all the people
arrived, they ordered popcorn. Carrie, Mark, and Harrison ordered 3 bucket-sized
popcorn bags, filled with so much popcorn they could all make a pit stop right
in the middle of the film.
During a scene, Mark and Carrie were taking their time eating their popcorn,
like people with real etiquette would do. Harrison was stuffing his mouth full
of popcorn so some of the popcorn fell to the ground and got on nice, new, and
polished loafers that people were wearing. Some of the audience planned to sue
Harrison, believe it or not. Carrie elbowed him on his left shoulder. Mark was
quietly sipping his medium-sized Coke. "Harrison," Carrie whispered,
"where's your
manners?" "Oh, sorry". Out of nowhere Chewbacca appeared. "RAAAAARRRRGGGHHH!"
"AAH, all right, all right, all RIGHT!" Harrison moaned.
After the movie, Carrie, Mark and Harrison all said good-bye to each other until
they would be called back in to start filming the upcoming "The Empire
Strikes Back" on March 4, 1979.
END!
