The People vs. George Lucas Page #2

I remember getting

all calls from my mother...

Neil Gaiman

Author

I had been... United States...

... And told me about a movie

called Star Wars .

I remember it was a very rainy day.

GERARDO SANCHEZ RODRIGUES

Madrid, Spain

I went to the old cinema in Madrid.

And so it began.

I saw Star Wars

with my grandmother.

MICHAEL ARIAS:

Director of Tekkonkinkreet

transition

between the end of the first film...

... and parking

West Covina...

Transition must be... more

jarring I've experienced.

It was like being born.

1977, was the capture of a moment

spectacular was the world.

social pressure and economic

mixed and forced people...

Evade... are at the movies

during two hours.

You gave them a product

and a great story.

While our faith in religion

of our fathers died...

Gave us... a new myth

to understand ourselves...

... And our world.

It is like playing

something universal and sublime...

... On the human experience.

It is difficult to George Lucas

the level of Shakespeare and Homer...

... But you know what?

It is not the author.

This is the culture that surrounds it.

This is what the author recalled.

He's a genius, and I can prove,

because he Wars .

JOE W. HALDEMAN

Science fiction author

Part of the genius

The Star Wars ...

... and George Lucas was...

Really understand... how to sell it.

He had reached, by accident...

... a level of expectation

I could not fill...

Because they could...

make toys...

Fast enough...

to launch...

... and they decided to sell

an empty box with a certificate...

SHIP FROM 1 FEBRUARY

AND JUNE 1

... that would send the toys.

IAN FREER:

Editor of Empire Magazine (UK)

One reason to remember

these films are toys.

We imported toys

as movies.

I still remember the smell

of these action figures, open...

... and smell them.

CHRIS GORE:

Popular with nerds

I have no other printed matter

that smells like this.

I'm serious!

If you wanted pajamas

Star Wars had.

If you wanted to have a ray gun

as Han Solo, you'd get.

was like let you go in a candy store.

- I am your father.

- Dad, I'm Anakin.

I'm Anakin.

The film becomes

in a culture of participation...

... Where a child playing

begins to create its own history.

HENRY JENKINS:

Author of Convergence Culture

Fans participating

contribute to this world.

They want to bring to this world

his feeling than to the screen.

MATTHEW S. ROTUNDO

Briony James - Fan Fiction Writer

SONNY MALONE - Creative

It's fun to play in their world.

Come on, honey.

He gave us a huge sandbox to play...

... And here we are playing.

DANNY CHOO:

Stormtrooper in Tokyo

encapsulates you and drags you.

George was the only filmmaker

has encouraged all...

KEVIN RUBIO:

Director of Troops

... To play in their sandbox.

allowed people like me

openly mocked and create.

Many people call this

desolate space...

... but I like the feeling

small town feel here.

The best movies made by fans

are those of Star Wars .

Perhaps the next big franchise

is Doctor Who .

CLIVE YOUNG:

Author of Homemade Hollywood

Sure, there are 100 films

made by fans...

... The Star Wars

for each Doctor Who .

I love movies

action figures and toy LEGO.

They are taking these derivatives ...

... and use them as tools

to create their own material.

Strike REBELS

I started making my first animations

when I went to high school.

I took the figures from the film

and conformed to two frames per time.

CHARLIE UNGER:

Director of USC

I took a long time,

but was locked in the basement...

... and it was my obsession.

If you want to recreate something

as Wars ...

First thing you think... is a parody.

is because people love

and is easy to recreate.

Darth Vader.

Only you can be so brave.

The Imperial Senate will not distill it.

IMPERIAL SENATE DISSOLVED

It is possible, but unlikely,

find a weakness and exploit it.

The plans of which you speak will be

soon in our hands again.

What if we took this film

and we divide...

So people...

work together on it?

It would be very funny.

It's my first thought.

It would be very funny.

I'll Episode IV , and divide

in 473 parts of 15 seconds.

In three days,

took all the scenes, 473.

I said, "Rays. Works!"

The amount of creativity put

in this project is amazing.

Much fans.

It's my favorite.

But there are also animation high

quality, picture frame by frame.

can recreate the

scene with intelligence...

... and respecting the original spirit.

I think it's much more

unique and interesting.

It is unwise to disturb a Wookiee.

But no one cares

about upsetting a droid.

That's because a droid not start

arms to people when they lose.

Wookiee are known to do that.

I understand, sir.

suggest a new strategy, Arturo.

Let the Wookiee win.

I do not know what motivates followers

of Wars ...

... To make their own versions

of the film.

And some films made by

followers are very serious...

... And explore their own characters

of Wars .

Some are subversive in what they do

with Wars .

Never get out of here.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Who will survive

the iniquity of the Ewoks?

Decimated , gradients, cooked.

DO NOT COME TO THE FOREST OF ENDOR

are giving a twist to the franchise

using their own toys.

What he created

has motivated others to create.

There are many things I enjoy...

... But not inspire me to create.

I love

Peanut candy Reese...

... But never occur to me

be pastry.

He became a starting point...

If you wanted to make movies...

or writing fiction.

Surely there hangings

to embroider this item.

People find what you like...

... And looking for ways to adapt

to Wars .

CHRIS Strompolos

Producer Hunters

of the Lost Ark:
The Adaptation

Crazy for this film.

longed to see

Raiders of the Lost Ark ...

... and went to the movies with my dad...

... And literally, that first time

I saw her, I was surprised.

It broke my brain in two.

HUNTERS OF THE LOST ARK:

ADAPTATION:

performance was more than a fantasy...

... it was a step further.

We knew that our little

recreation would take seven years...

... But do not abandon.

Recreated the scene

where he meets Marion Indiana Jones...

... And at the end of the scene,

and the Nazis are bad...

And fought with weapons......

... The place is on fire

and falls apart on them...

... and it's great in the original film.

When you look at the version of...

There are even more stress... because you say:

"God, please leave these children
