* Rotational booking with other area theaters
** Engagement included a three-week interruption for a film festival

On July 21st, 1978, despite the original release never fully coming to an end, over 1,700 new engagements commenced (plus about 300 more a week later) culminating in a seven-week general release/re-release. All prints (save for one in the Portland market due to a lawsuit and a holdover clause in the booking contract) were pulled from release following the first week of September. (The Portland run continued as an exclusive through November 7th.)

The original Star Wars had additional North American re-releases in 1979, 1981, 1982, 1983, and 1997 (and through the years numerous special benefit screenings). Its first home-video release was in 1982. Its pay-per-view broadcast debut was in 1982. Its premium-channel cable TV debut was in 1983. Its network television debut was in 1984. (International dates varied by territory.)
