yes I remember reading this in the novel as well. I was not in a first run market so I did not get to see the movie until after I had read the book. I had the Scholastic version book with four pages of color photos, and remmber seeing Luke in the fishing hat with Cammie. I certainly would love to see this footage restored at the 40th anniversary!

Glad it is out for everyone to see. I do not know if this has been put out there yet. George Lucas stated that it did not flow with the main story. that is why this and other footage had been removed. I am sure you are not watching the best cuts of those scenes and am sure that they may very well be added to future versions. Some will be used in the next three films. (VII, VIII, IX)If I remember what I had read. Also that and other scenes were in the old novel/comic. (1978) You are not crazy.Yet

just like when they took the general grievous killing Shak tii part out of Episode III or the part when Yoda its outcast at the ending.Should have left it in.But its makes the making of the film more interesting with pieces like this.

This scene is about 30 years older than that movie, so I'd say WALL-E looks like that droid ^.^

That was fucking marvelous. Good old star wars. Before Jar Jar and stiff Padme. Or mood change Anakin.

I remeber seeing this footage in 1978 its real but like "Aranykai" said the audio is from the radio broadcast. Never thought i'd actually see this again, Lucas really fucked up when he did not include all this in the original film, Charicter development was crucial here.
