Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith premiered

May 19, 2005
Mr. Lucas needed more money to electronically remake the previous five Star Wars movies, so he released Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith on this date.

The original cut of this movie ran nearly four hours. The opening battle/Palpatine rescue alone ran over an hour. The extra footage of the Palpatine rescue scene is shown in the video game for this movie, however.
