註釋
From the books and movies that inspired George Lucas to imagine the
Star Wars
universe, to early screenplay drafts that were never filmed, to short biographies of many people who made key contributions to the movies' success,
Star Wars FAQ
explores every aspect of the original
Star Wars
trilogy (
Star Wars
,
The Empire Strikes Back
, and
Return of the Jedi
). Along the way, it unearths underreported stories and illuminating minutiae often skimmed over or completely ignored in other histories of the legendary film series. Highlights include details about the
Star Wars Holiday Special
debacle, the Ewok TV movies, the rise of
Star Wars
fiction and its importance in the revival of the franchise, and the wave of
Star Wars
imitators and parodies that flooded theaters and TV screens in the late 1970s and early 1980s – along with dozens of rare publicity stills and photographs of vintage memorabilia.
Offering an original analysis of the series' enduring appeal and cultural impact,
Star Wars FAQ
tells a story as thrilling and action-packed as the movies themselves, with bold characters facing apparently insurmountable odds, full of frantic chases, narrow escapes, daring victories, and tragic setbacks, culminating in an unlikely triumph that changed the course of the galaxy – or at least of Hollywood.
