Star Wars! Star Wars! Star Wars! Everything is Star Wars! Is that a bad thing? Probably not. But before you head out to the theater to catch the latest episode in this space opera, check out the latest episode of JoBlo's POP-UP MOVIE FACTS. This time we "pop" STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE. The film that started it all. This lovable cast of character on an epic quest soon captured the hearts of millions all around the world. Then that little film grew and grew into an unstoppable pop culture beast that devours anything and everything in sight. George Lucas had a vision to bring us an fantasy adventurous inspired by classic samurai films, spaghetti westerns and science fiction B movies. He did just that. Most of us humans use B.C. and A.D. when discussing dates of our history and us movie nerds can look at history through a similar timeline of before and after STAR WARS. Nothing has been the same since those wonderful images flickered unto the silver screen in 1977 A.D. So go grab your nearest Wookie pal and strap into your star fighter so you can learn about the most interesting movie facts in all the galaxy. May The Force Be With You and You and You and You.
