At the Strand Movie Theater in Ipswich, MA. We were driving an AMC Gremlin whose gas cap kept getting stolen because the gremlin figure reminded people of Yoda.

I went on what I thought was going to be a hot date, lol.  He took me to this and I fell asleep during and he had to waken me to go home.  Not a fan but I do love Star Trek!

I wasn't really aware of the phenomenon for a long time.  The movie Star Wars and I never connected but I know others who celebrate in quiet and not-so-quiet ways.

Interesting to note that the serials that movie theatres entertained with from the 40's and 50's when reintroduced were a hit. Old concept new audience. Everything gets recycled through the generations coming & going

I was in college, driving an orange and white 1975 Pinto that has different issues with the gas cap that Ralph Nadeau pointed out to America. Not the same problem Doug Dawes was having with the one on his Gremlin gas tank. Saw the movie and enjoyed the sight and sound experience eating popcorn and enthralled in the audience of a Bangor ME cinema silver screen.
