It’s arguably the most iconic media franchise in all of pop
culture. What started as just an $11 million sci-fi film from California-born
director George Lucas has since resulted in five additional films, numerous TV
series and video games, and much, much more. And this December, this highly beloved
series will finally return to the big screen under the direction of J.J. Abrams
with ‘The Force Awakens’. You know exactly what I’m talking about; it’s ‘Star
Wars’. And next month, in honor of May 4th AKA ‘Star Wars Day’, I’m
celebrating this quintessential sci-fi franchise with a whole month of ‘Star
Wars’ related content on this blog; it’s ‘Star Wars’ Month here on Rhode Island
Movie Corner. All throughout the month of May, every Friday, I’ll be releasing
a new blog post focusing on some of the many elements of the ‘Star Wars’
franchise. Of course I’ll be talking about the films, both the original and the
prequel trilogies, but I’ll also be giving my own thoughts on the controversial
changes made to the original films, will be looking at some of the franchise’s
TV series, and will also be listing my Top 10 favorite ‘Star Wars’ video games.
For the record, though, the first of these posts will be released next Monday,
on ‘Star Wars Day’, instead of this Friday due to scheduling conflicts with a
certain superhero film coming out this week. But after that, every subsequent ‘Star
Wars’ post will be released on Friday.
