I can see the significance and importance of all the events except the Star Wars one. It's just a film.

Frankly, every year has significant events that can be argued ad revolutionary. While you're at it, why not add the Years of the Pig the mix:
1947 - Truman enacts the Truman Doctrine, setting the Cold War into full motion.
1959 - The Day the Music Died and the Cuban Revolution
1971 - Don McLean releases the iconic "American Pie," which coincidentally refers to events from the previous entry.
1983 - Sally Ride becomes the first woman in space.
1995 - The Internet becomes mainstream.
2007 - Apple releases the iPhone, Netflix begins streaming movies, and the Great Recession begins.
