]]>In this 2007 documentary Newt Gingrich contemplates how George Washington would react to the politics of Star Wars.
It also denies any purposeful correlation between George Bush's istration and the Galactic Republic in the prequels, which as far as I'm aware, is a blatant lie.

]]>Genuinely shocked to see any semblance of anti-colonialist themes in 1937. Good heart packaged in a disaster adventure picture. John Ford!!
]]>Goodness Gracious!
]]>Guess who got a goddamn AMC a-list hip today. That's right, me mutherfucka. Your telling me I can see 4 movies a week for 20 buckaroos a month?? That's 16 movies a month for 20 dollars!! That's a $1.25 a pop instead of $15. Thats insane!!! Why did no one tell me sooner (someone probably [definitely] did)??? When I bought it I thought it was one movie a week and was like "that's a steal of a deal!" No shit. Quadruple what that dipshit thought.
Movie was good too I guess
]]>Was curious to see what inspired Lucas to create Star Wars. Probably the most influential pre-1950 cinematic work of sci-fi outside of Metropolis. It's my understanding that this was the only serial with a good budget, and it shows. Great big sets and campy costumes and big lizards and apes and shit. Awesome. Really the Sam Raimi's Spider-Man of the 1930s.
If you're considering checking this out break it up in 1-3 episode chunks Saturday morning cartoon style.
]]>DAMN YOU TIM BURTON FOR PIONEERING THE DISNEY LIVE ACTION REMAKE DAMN YOUUUU

Further Reading
The Maschinenmensch – the robot in Fritz Lang's 1927 film Metropolis – inspired the look of C-3PO, although the Maschinenmensch is a gynoid whereas C-3PO has masculine programming.
Darth Vader's need to wear his helmet to breathe recalls the oxygen helmets of the underground- dwelling Muranians in the 1935 Mascot serial The Phantom Empire, which are required by the caped Thunder Riders to be able to breathe on the Surface.
Flash Gordon is the pulp hero whose original property which George Lucas had sought to license before making the first Star Wars film, A New Hope; the film includes many elements derived from the 1936 Universal serial Flash Gordon and its sequel, Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe. The basic plot involving the infiltration of a megalomaniacal outer-space Emperor's fortress by two heroes disguised in uniforms of soldiers of his army is drawn from Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe, with Luke Skywalker and Han Solo filling the roles of Flash Gordon and Prince Barin, respectively, and Ming the Merciless the Emperor. The Emperor's deadly, hostile planet (the Death Star/Mongo), a sometimes scantily-clad brunette space Princess whom the hero defends (Princess Leia/Princess Aura), a big, strong, hairy, animal-like ally (Chewbacca/Prince Thun of the Lion Men), a fearsome monster found underground and/or fought in an arena by the hero (the Rancor/the Gocko or Orangopoid), a city in the sky ruled by someone who originally works with the villains but later s the heroes (Lando Calrissian of Cloud City), ray-guns, and dogfighting spaceships were all elements retained from the first Universal Flash Gordon serial. The opening text crawl of Star Wars is in the same style as the text openings of each chapter of the Flash Gordon Conquers The Universe serial.
The death scene of Yoda in Return of the Jedi is taken almost shot-for-shot from the death scene of the similarly mystical High Lama in Frank Capra's Lost Horizon (Yoda and the High Lama also both share a diminutive form and odd cadence of speech).
The costume for Darth Vader was visually inspired by the character "The Lightning" in the Republic Pictures serial The Fighting Devil Dogs. The Lightning also had an army of white-armored stormtroopers and flew through the sky in a large triangular airship (the "flying wing").
Buck Rogers, another hero from pulp magazines from 1920s, and late comic strips (1929-67) and later a 1939 film serial anda 1950-51 TV series. Star Wars was also influenced from its tropes.
Star Wars is widely considered to resemble Richard Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen in themes, plot elements, and music.
Joseph Campbell's comparative mythology book The Hero with a Thousand Faces, directly influenced Lucas, and is what drove him to create the 'modern myth' of Star Wars.
Star Wars borrows significantly from Arthurian mythology; especially with respect to plot and main character development. The life and character development of Luke Skywalker resembles that of the legendary King Arthur. Both are orphans who later become heroes in their early adulthood. Both also have mentors who are much older and provide them with guidance and/or training. Arthur was mentored by Merlin; whereas Luke was mentored and trained by Obi-Wan Kenobi prior to continuing his training and mentorship with Yoda. The role of Anakin Skywalker as the father of the hero, Luke Skywalker, mirrors that of Uther Pendragon who is King Arthur's father. Qui Gon- Jinn, Master Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi's roles match that of Merlin during the era of Anakin Skywalker and Uther Pendragon respectively.
