Beware at 248mb and 45 minutes in length, this film is a VERY large download and a significant time commitment. But if your a Star Wars fanatic, it's well worth it. Start it downloading and go make some popcorn. By the time you're done making the popcorn it should be finished downloading and you'll be able to pop it in your full screen VLC movie player, put your feet up and enjoy.
