This reader's review at the New York Times put a grin on my face...

Have I seen this before?
Great movie. The plot begins with the father of Luke, er Maverick, er Kirk going down to the bad guys. He is sent to be raised by relatives on an obscure farm on Tatooine, er Iowa, where he rebels by racing his uncle's landspeeder, er F-16, er Corvette, which brings him to the attention of local sage Obi-Wan, er Viper, er Captain Pike, who recruits him with tales of the old man's heroism. So it's off to join the rebel fleet, er Air Force, er Star Fleet. Anyway, he starts flirting with the first woman he meets, Leia, er Charlie, er Uhura, which brings him into conflict with eventual sidekick Han Solo, er Iceman, er Spock. Anyway, 90 minutes of action ensue, with Luke/Maverick/Kirk eventually destroying the Death Star/enemy MiGs/Romulan ship, although with all the tatoos, one could mistake the Romulans for the NBA All-Star team. Anyway, the Galaxy is saved and the stage set for many future sequels.
