- Caption from metadata for 535-3175-1: "Ashley Simmons, 16, passes the time in line for advance tickets to the opening of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, at Silver City Metropolis, by playing the Star Wars edition of Trivial Pursuit with some of her friends. She says she's seen the three previsions editions of the movie "at least a hundred times each, on video." She says she joined the lineup at about 9:15, three hours before tickets went on sale, because "you wanna go (see the movie) on the first day when everybody's happy and looking forward to it." She says her enthusiasm hasn't been dampened by some of the lukewarm reviews already circulating, "they're not real Star Wars fans." "
