This is where it all started. This movie set off an alarm in filmmaking. STAR WARS grew into the most fun and popular of movies. George Lucas' sci-fi extravaganza with Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Princess Leigha, and Darth Vader helped us forget about the real world. It made us want to become a Jedi Knight. It brings out the kid in all of us, even after all these years.
This movie appeals to all ages. It's one of the most recognized films of all-time. This movie was more than just a movie, it's an event. Starting off as a surprise hit, STAR WARS quickly became part of American culture. This movie and its sequels probably draw the most attention when talking about movies. George Lucas is a genius for dreaming up such a story. The characters are interpreted as real people by most die-hard fans. This movie is the foundation for all sci-fi films. It could be the most popular movie of all-time, although THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK is widely regarded as the best of the original trilogy. |
