So the whole world is going crazy including Google https://www.google.com/starwars
Any fans on here?
Star Wars was the most brilliantly MARKETED production of all time. The craze around Star Wars is the same craze that used to surround Justin Bieber. Mind manipulation of the highest order.
Star Wars is a decent series of movies at best. The excitement back in the 70's was around the fact that there were cool-looking futuristic spacecraft and weapons. This was exiting for kids, who went and bought the brillianty marketed merchandise, the costumes, posters, t-shirts, toy figurines, Legos and more, thus sealing its fate as a "legend".
George Lucas is a brilliant BUSINESSMAN, and I will give him credit where credit is due. A writer? A thinker? Meh.
