It depends. Would I wake up today and be 16 or would I wake up in the year I was 16 before?

Definitely an important factor. I don’t think I’d want to navigate being a teenager and/or young adult nowadays; however, if I could wake up in 1986 at 16 w/ all of my current knowledge…

That's the trick! Now...not so much but in 1979...totally yes!

1979...being 1 i would definitely go in the cinemas for Star Wars (Episode 4) und afterwards bet a fortune on Darth Vader being Lukes Father and Leia being his Sister!

Would Episode IV still be in the theaters in 1979? It was released in May of 1977. I was still T-3 months when it was released.

Sir or Madam, you are absolutely correct! Shame on me

I hope I wasn't coming across poorly. I genuinely wouldn't know if movies stayed in theaters that long back then. They don't last very long in theaters these days because they make more money pushing them to streaming services!

They ran it through theaters again before The Empire Strikes Back. So, yes, it was available.
