Will Smith was around 9 years old when "A New Hope" burst to the screens in 1977, changing cinema forever. Most were amazed and captivated by the film which was unlike anything ever released at that point in movies. In fact, for Smith the experience was so, err, orgasmic that he claims it was better than his first experience with intercourse just a few years later:
"When Star Wars came out, there weren't special effects. You couldn't do that. So we were just completely blown away," he said. "For my entire life I've been chasing trying to give that feeling to fans. There was nothing that I had experienced in my life that matched that point of ecstasy," he added. "I had sex a few years later. It was close, but no Star Wars."
