Note that the entire Star Wars Saga is 13 hours and 22 minutes long… This is more of a two day event. Viewing the entire Saga sober is not recommended in one sitting, let alone drinking.

In 1997 Lucas digitally edited the series and made even more changes in the DVD boxset released in 2004, if you use these editions here are some extra bonus rules to get you drunker faster!
Special Edition Rules:
• Lucas makes “subtle” environment changes.
• A character is completely replaced/added.
• Audio is changed. (Boba Fett/The Emperor etc.)

Partially based and inspired by previous versions on the internets.
