| I hope your cheap copy was less than $60!
I was (maybe stupidly) considering a shrink wrapped copy for $54. I got a used one which is purportedly complete for less than half that. |

Just a thought supporting the 'you can't change your own past' idea. Mostly, time travel makes my head hurt. Unless it's like Timecop. That was a cool movie. 
Like in Futurama when Fry we ... |

| Anyone played the Willow game? I got a cheap copy on eBay. Thoughts?

| If they made Rise of the Skywalkers all about time travel, clown shoes, and space cocaine I think I'd still enjoy ANH just as much.
