The entry you are changing the wording of is:

Title	Star Wars
Original entry	George Lucas decided to release "Star Wars" in May 1977 instead of the start of the summer movie season (in the 1970s, it was a new concept as the result of the success of "Jaws" in 1975) in June because he wanted kids still in school to talk about it so as to spread word-of-mouth.

The existing entry is in the box below - please change whichever words or names which need correcting/altering. Please don't make any other comments, or remove text you aren't changing. Also, please DON'T alter character/actor names unless they're wrong - having a mix of character/actor references helps people work out who is who if they haven't seen the film.
