I guess these movies affect you more or less depending on your tastes and specially if you see them at the right age. I was 8 years old when I saw the original Star Wars in the cinema and 9 years old when I saw the Superman movie in the cinema. And I experienced all the craze and the hype that surrounded those movies when they were released. It was incredible. There's nothing like that now. Nothing remotely close. Nowadays when movies of this type are released they're just... just another blockbuster. Back in 1977 I was a nerdy kid who loved comics, science-fiction and movies, at the right age, and you cant just begin to imagine how those two movies affected me when I saw them. They were both "firsts". First time anybody saw a science-fiction movie like Star Wars and first time anybody saw a superheroe movie like superman. If you were a kid who loved comics and science-fiction and you saw them at the right age, like me, they will stay with you forever, till the day you die. Nowdays, when I try to explain to my sister-in-law (15 years younger than me), what's so special about these movies, what makes them so different, she doesn't get it, and I just leave it there, I just say: "you werent there, you will never understand it".

Well, between entering the HRC for the first time, working on another wip, 'Savages' and battling in the BRIII to boot, I simply haven't had time to return to these.
I promise, when the dust have settled from the Big Bounce, I'll work to finish this set! Thanks for your kind interest!
Ain't too well equipped resources-wise for IV so perhaps I'll skip that one and go directly to 'Returns' when I have finished II & III (LOL!) That would buy me more time to hunt down workable pics for IV.

Well, if I may say so, you can forget that movie ever existed and skip it. It's what I try to do, forget that existed.
