Star Wars mashups and 30 year History Channel special

by chrisjara

Along with the news that Lucasfilms will be providing Star Wars clips to be used in mashup and derivatives, the History Channel will present a two-hour special on Monday May 28th titled “STAR WARS: THE LEGACY REVEALED” Some of the people who were interviewed about the movies’ lasting appeal include Newt Gingrich, Peter Jackson, Dan Rather and Nancy Pelosi.

“Through interviews with politicians, academics, journalists and critics - all of whom weigh in on the enduring appeal of George Lucas’s creations - the special demonstrates that Star Wars isn’t just a high-action adventure in space. It’s a remarkably complex and sophisticated story about power, politics, sin, spirituality and redemption-almost Shakespearean in its power, humor, presentation and influence.”
