    I first saw this movie in the theater when I was 10 years old. I loved it even then. A few years ago I had a flashback memory of the movie and just had to see it again. It didn't disappoint one bit! I still love this movie and ohh weee Mr. James Earl Jones' voice gives me chills whenever I hear it!
