Watching one of the first three Star Wars episodes it's like jumping back into my childhood, that's the magic of the movies: They bring you somewhere else in space and time. Empire Strikes Back is my favorite film. I'm still that kid with a lightsaber ready to go on an adventure in a galaxy far, far away.Īnd here's Giorgini, whose work we've showcased on /Film many times before. Today I still feel the same magic when I rewatch A New Hope for the thousandth time. I went home that night with lightsaber in hand (that my parents bought me) trying reenact the lightsaber duel with my brother in our apartment living room. Though I was too young follow the story exactly, I remember a boy got a lightsaber and went on an adventure in space. My parents took my older brother and I to watch the film. The following year George Lucas' Star Wars: A New Hope released in theaters. I was only a few years old when I first moved to the United States in 1976. Here's Arellano, whose A New Hope poster we previously featured here: Star Wars is the first movie I can recall ever seeing. It's rare to find a pop cultural institution that strikes such a strong chord with such a wide variety of people.Įach of the artists offered a statement on what the franchise means to them. Which is kind of the great thing about Star Wars - it seems to bring everyone together. The artists' styles couldn't be more different, but they're all united by a shared love of Star Wars.
