George Lucus came from a wealthy family and got to see his long-visional space fantasy become such a megopolic hit which this culture and world is forever stained with madness. Veternn journalist Chris Taylor wrote a recent book about the back scenes of the star wars creation following George Lucus and his trials and tribulation of Mr. Lucus through the years as he finally overcame resistance and won total control through Star Wars. Lucus's dream was making a film project where many toy sales could put him in the billionaire class. The early influences of Lucus is detailed which not surprisingly were often bad Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon and serial garbage of early TV and film. it didn't really matter because George liked these series and he was going to get something new out there in his obsession of space soldiers. The book recalls the beginning where many studios actually passed on the script which they rightfully saw as lame and budget costs almost doomed Lucus plan to have young adults forever thinking there is something more to this life and this Star Wars thing needs to be an important part of their world.
In this accomplishment George Lucus was successful as there was always a strong Hollywood looking for diamonds in the rough and the space exploratory theme was one not touched often at the time. The book goes through the spawns of star wars and why they were not as successful mainly do to not having the incredible special affects of Star Wars that so dazzled the American public. The book also points out how through globalization the legion of this fan base is growing in some paces around the world you would never expect it even in the former ruins of the ottoman Empire. The special effect reliance though nearly destroyed the franchise with the awful prequels that Chris Taylor is now trying to convince the reader are beloved movies of Star wars nuts. Hogwash. the prequels were boring science fiction movies whose only success was based on its connection to the 1977 story. Without it the prequels would be as beloved at Battlestar Galactica or V is with fans today.
Star Wars represents the worse of tis consumer obsessed and endless entertainment culture and lifestyle in tis silly nation. Lucus and his bad space story has given so many more avenues and unnecessary product creation that could only be developed by a real post war evil empire of reckless over-consuming of world resources to make things such as plastic little robots. it is amazing that tis movie almost never got made and a critique is really never done why this society is really inspired and attracted to star wars and this is mainly the industrial spending complex through the years to keep promoting this storyline. it seems just like endless Apple promotion has slowed some the death of Steve Jobs it will take the death of George Lucus to finally start a beginning to the end of Star wars and the force it as to be pushed on all facets of our culture through big money and consumption opportunities. This is really what the force is all about
