Episode 1 (The Phantom Menace) was released in 1997.
The first Star Wars movie was simply called Star Wars because George Lucas thought there was little chance for a sequel. After more movies were made, the name was changed to Star Wars: A New Hope.
It started as star wars Episodes 4-6, then they made 1-3 and everyone wanted to know about the era between Episode 2-3 which yoda reffered to in episode 2 as the Clone Wars. Star Wars is awesome. Wooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you mean the film from 1977, it was just called "Star Wars." But if you're talking about the 4th film that's commonly known as "Episode 1," it is named "The Phantom Menace."
episode 1
1999
Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope (1977) Star Wars Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Star Wars Episode 6: Return of the Jedi (1983) Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace (1999) Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones (2002) Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith (2005) Watch these movies the way they were released, not by the Episode numbers. Start with 4, 5, and 6. Then watch 1, 2, and 3. Anyone who saw Episodes 1, 2, and/ or 3 and can't figure out what the big deal is, watch Episodes 4 and 5, and then you will be pleasantly surprised. They are some of the greatest science fiction movies ever made.
I really don't understand what you're trying to say. The first Star Wars movie was originally named "Star Wars." But when the prequel trilogy was being released, the name was then changed to "Episode 4: A New Hope."
Yes. That is episode 4 of Season 1
