Episode 244 and Victorian popular fiction author H Rider Haggard features as one of the main characters of this tale. Rider Haggards' creation called Allan Quartermain appeared in 18 novels - the first in what has become known as is the Lost World genre. George Lucas and Philip Kaufman copied the Allan Quartermain template for Indiana Jones character - as well as the basic storylines for movies like Raiders of the Lost Ark. While King Solomon's Mines is Rider Haggard's most popular work, Allan Quartermain has since reappeared in movies in the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, which gave his books a bit of a push. His novels, which blended exploration, myth, and early ideas of evolution, also influenced the subconscious of his generation, resonating with spiritual and psychological themes that were explored by figures like Jung and Freud. Furthermore, his work reflects and grapples with late Victorian anxieties, including imperial politics, the changing role of religion, and burgeoning notions of race and empire. Right now, we're saddling up with Theophilus Shepstone in Pietermaritzburg - it's 1877. If you recall last episode, Transvaal President Burgers had gone to war against baPedi chief Sekhukhuni, which ended in a stalemate and reports of atrocities committed by German lead mercenaries. Burgers had already complained in England about their treatment of the Boer claims to the diamond fields - and the Colonial office had coughed up 90 000 pounds as compensation. You could call it a bribe, because that's what it was. The boers accepted the compensation, but did not back down on their claims to land in the vicinity of the Transvaal, including baPedi land. As long as the Transvaal remained receptive to the confederation idea at least in Carnarvon's mind, there was no real conflict to deal with amongst the local officials. But there was growing tension between an historian JJ Froude and Garnet Wolseley for example. Froude had been sent on a fact-finding mission to the colonies by Carnarvon and he became a surprising advocate for the Boers and the Free State and Transvaal Republics. His advice to Carnarvon was to let the states handle their own problems, as they resented interference from Downing Street. Cape Governor Sir Henry Barkly had been sending Carnarvon reports drawn largely from pro-annexationist newspapers in the Transvaal and the Cape Colony. These implied that the Transvaal was nearing a state of anarchy as a result of its war with the Sekukuni's baPedi. Eagerly lapping all this up was Sir Garnet Wolseley who was the very epitome of the Stiff upper lip Brit, a military officer and administrator, represented the opposite, more interventionist imperial view. In late December 1876, Sir Theophilus Shepstone departed from Pietermaritzburg in Natal with a small, almost symbolic, escort of just 25 Natal Mounted Police and a handful of officials including the young H Rider Haggard. Just as an aside, Haggard was not being paid for his duties as Shepstone's secretary. Work experience I guess you'd call it. However, Shepstone's secret instructions were far more decisive: if he deemed it necessary and opportune, he was to annex the territory to the British Crown. The Transvaal had no easy revenue base, and Shepstone introduced new taxes on both black and white Transvalers, while his administrative reforms chafed the Boers. Most resented they now had no elected representation under British rule and resistance started almost immediately.

Many filmmakers are known for small signatures that they always put inside their films. Alfred Hitchcock always used himself in a cameo. George Lucas always found a way to integrate the number 1138. Quentin Tarrentio almost always mentions the fictional "Big Kahuna Burger." And Stan Lee, of course, has found his way into every Marvel Movie. However, there is one film signature that is shared by a wide range of movie makers and has appeared in hundreds of films. You've probably come across it even if you didn't realize it.

Maniac Mansion was a sitcom that aired on The Family Channel from 1990 to 1993. The show was created by Eugene Levy and produced by George Lucas's Lucasfilm Television. Loosely based on the cult-favorite 1987 video game of the same name. While the series took its name from the cult video game, the show used little to none of the source material, opting instead for a domestic sitcom laced with surreal, science-fiction twists. The premise centered on Dr. Fred Edison (Joe Flaherty), a well-meaning scientist whose home experiments often created bizarre predicaments for his family. The mix of conventional family humor and absurdist elements gave the show a tone that was equal parts sitcom, parody, and sketch comedy. Critics and audiences received Maniac Mansion with curiosity but mixed feelings. Fans of the video game were surprised by the lighter, kid-friendly direction, while TV reviewers highlighted its eccentric humor and offbeat charm from the show's SCTV roots. Though it never broke through as a mainstream hit, the series gained a modest cult following. Is this this show going to be more Spooky or Dookie with the boys? Listen as they deep dive the show's pilot episode, "The 10th Anniversary Special" and find out. Starring: Joe Flaherty, Deborah Theaker, Kathleen Robertson, Avi Phillips, George Buza, John Hemphil, & Mary Charlotte Wilcox www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD

Today we're diving into George Lucas' debut film, ‘THX 1138' (1971) - which I argue is one of the most influential films of all time. We talk about the early life of director George Lucas and how he went from underground race-car driver to wannabe experimental filmmaker. We dive into his USC-nerd-friends “The Dirty Dozen” and how a budding bromance with Francis Ford Coppola led to one of the most important idealistic yet doomed production companies, American Zoetrope. All this plus an audience discussion after the film, and lobby interviews with Peyton Johnson…it's a great late night live show, Behind the Slate Style.Recorded live at The Plaza Theatre in Atlanta, GA. Come see us for our next live show in Athens, GA on October 9th where we will be screening Andrzej Żuławski's film ‘Posession'.

Supernerds Alex Agnew en Fokke van der Meulen, maar ook maestro Dirk Brossé duiken met mij in de wereld van de tweede (en béste) Star Wars-film ‘The Empire Strikes Back' en de geniale muziek van John Williams. We doen dat in het prachtige Studio 1 van Flagey, voor een live publiek, op uitnodiging van Brussels Philharmonic die na afloop een onvergetelijk cineconcert speelden.We hebben het over George Lucas die het werk voor Episode V heeft uitbesteed aan mensen die het beter weten, over Dirk die Carrie Fisher (en alle andere helden) heeft ontmoet en het controle-orgaan van Disney. Alex vertelt over het spelen met Star Wars-popjes, terwijl hij muziek uit de film neuriede. Fokke uit zijn aversie tegen de Disneyfilms. En Dirk deelt een anekdote over Anthony Hopkins op het mannentoilet (hij verwart hem even met Anthony Daniels, maar het gaat wel degelijk over Hopkins).Had de muziek anders geklonken, had Star Wars bij pakweg MGM gezeten? Is het geen idee om een cineconcert te doen, waarbij Alex alle bruitage voor z'n rekening neemt? En mogen we nu zeggen dat we dankzij Dirk in een “2 degrees of separation” van John Williams staan? Met grote dank aan Brussels Philharmonic.

It’s a different sort of episode(s) this week.

Movies that change cinema often come from outsiders – whether it's Orson Welles making Citizen Kane or George Lucas making Star Wars a.k.a. Episode IV: A New Hope. The excellent graphic novel Lucas Wars by artist Renaud Roche and writer Laurent Hopman just came out in English (the original French title is Les Guerres de Lucas.) I talk with Renaud and Laurent about why the making of Star Wars was such a long shot, and how the production changed the lives of everyone involved. Plus, we discuss the unsung heroes who helped make Star Wars happen -- like Lucas's ex wife Marcia and studio mogul Alan Ladd Jr.   Imaginary Worlds was just nominated for a Signal Award for Best Arts & Culture podcast!

n this episode of Bantha Milk Podcast, James and Rob put their lightsabers where their mouths are and make the case for Star Wars: A New Hope as the best film in the entire saga. From iconic characters and groundbreaking effects to the storytelling that launched a galaxy far, far away — they're diving deep into why Episode IV still holds up as the gold standard of Star Wars. Was it George Lucas's original vision that makes it untouchable? Is it the raw charm of 1977 filmmaking? Or maybe it's just nostalgia...? Whether you're a prequel purist, an Empire enthusiast, or ride hard for the sequels — this is one episode you don't want to miss. Agree? Disagree? Let the debates begin!

Just when we thought we found all the actors who've played Darth Vader, another emerges. Tom Bewley was the first actor to portray the Dark Lord of the Sith on screen after Return of the Jedi. He appeared in the Frank Oz-directed 1985 film, The Indian in the Cupboard. In his very first podcast interview, Tom opens up with never-before-heard stories from behind the mask. He shares what it was like stepping into Vader's boots for The Indian in the Cupboard, his duel with the Energizer Bunny in a now-legendary commercial, memories from the Star Wars 10th Anniversary convention preshow with George Lucas, and plenty more surprises. TODAY in Star Wars History 9/16/1977 48 years ago... ABC aired The Making of Star Wars as Told by C-3PO and R2-D2, an hour-long special hosted by R2-D2 and Anthony Daniels as C-3PO. Coming in the same month as Donny & Marie, Richard Pryor, and Saturday morning Star Wars previews, the special stood out by placing R2 and 3PO in a futuristic Star Wars setting to share behind-the-scenes stories. It was a clever move—fans didn't have to wait for The Empire Strikes Back to get “new” Star Wars, all thanks to Charlie Lippincott's promotional vision.

Another live panel from Dragon Con - Bryan Young took the stage with Matthew Wood, Henry Gilroy, and Fon Davis to talk about the legacy George Lucas left behind with Industrial Light and Magic, Skywalker Sound, and Lucasiflm Animation in front of a live audience.

On this episode, we start a new trilogy of the beloved Star Wars franchise with the one movie that sparked much controversy, Star Wars Episode 1 The Phantom Menace. We talk about the lore behind the controversy, George Lucas, the Star Wars community, and so much more.

Created by George Lucas, produced by Lucasfilm, and distributed by 20th Century Fox, the original Star Wars trilogy serves as the second act of the nine-episode Skywalker Saga. George Lucas directed Star Wars, with Irvin Kershner and Richard Marquand directing the sequels respectively. Jason and Rob rewind in this special 100th episode to review the space opera trilogy that started it all - Star Wars (1977), The Empire Strikes Back (1980), and Return of the Jedi (1983). The trilogy of films centres on the Galactic Civil War between the Rebel Alliance and the tyrannical Galactic Empire, as well as the hero's journey of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) in his quest to become a Jedi under the tutelage of exiled Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness) and Yoda (Frank Oz). Luke joins forces with Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), C-3PO (Anthony Daniels), R2-D2 (Kenny Baker), and the Rebel Alliance in facing the Empire and the evil Sith Lord Darth Vader (David Prowse / James Earl Jones).

Dimitri and Khalid embark on a wide-ranging quest to uncover the true nature and function of the STAR WARS ritual complex in the Late American Empire, including: The murky influence of sus Joseph Campbell and the 1974 Stanford Research Institute report “Changing Images of Man”, “THX-1138” and Bay Area mind control programs, whether Star Wars was George Lucas's sublimated Vietnam War film, Star Wars as the dominant mythopoetic cult of the post-1960s American Empire, the Esalen roots of the Jedi pseudo-religion, Disney's domestic gladio utilization of Star Wars with a Thousand Faces, whether “Andor” is a heckin' leftist masterpiece, George Lucas' curious early work as an Altamont cameraman (and likely stint at Lookout Mountain AFB making internal government films), and much more… For access to premium SJ episodes, upcoming installments of DEMON FORCES, and the Grotto of Truth Discord, become a subscriber at https://patreon.com/subliminaljihad.

In this episode of The Filmumentaries Podcast, I talk with James Kahn, the novelist behind some of the most iconic movie novelizations of the 1980s, including Return of the Jedi, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, The Goonies, and Poltergeist. James shares how a chance encounter while working as an ER doctor in Santa Monica led him onto the set of ET: The Extra-Terrestrial, where he met Kathleen Kennedy and Steven Spielberg, an opportunity that set his writing career in motion. We discuss:How James went from emergency medicine to Hollywood writerHis early break writing the Poltergeist novelizationThe creative freedom Spielberg gave him on Temple of Doom, The Goonies, and othersWriting Return of the Jedi under intense secrecy — including how George Lucas gave him a decoy script where Luke kills the EmperorInventing backstory details that became “canon” for decades, like Ben and Owen being brothers and hints about Anakin's fall into the lava pitsGiving Short Round his own chapter and exploring Mikey's POV in The GooniesHow his books helped fans relive these films long before home videoWhy a great novelization is about more than retelling a screenplayHis recent memoir, A Jedi Memoir: A Double Life, weaving together stories from Hollywood and emergency medicineIf you grew up with these books, this one's packed with insights, behind-the-scenes stories, and moments of movie history you probably didn't know.

In Part 4 of our Rebel Scum Con experience, we go behind the scenes with MORE talented artists who gave life to a few of our favorite Star Wars characters. We sat down with Toby Philpott, one of the puppeteers behind the massive Jabba the Hutt. From controlling Jabba's grotesque expressions to (maybe?) licking Princess Leia, his stories from the set are not only fascinating but filled with tips and tricks for any aspiring puppeteers out there. Next up, Femi Taylor, who played the ill-fated (but always fabulous) Oola, shares her experience on the set of RETURN OF THE JEDI. She dives into what it was like returning to the role years later and how the character still connects with fans today.. And if that wasn't cool enough, Howie Weed gives us a detailed look at his time inside the suit of the terrifying Wampa, and shares his experience with George Lucas directing! Howie even drops a hint or two about the Wampa's survival odds after that little run-in with Luke Skywalker. Each guest was incredibly generous with their time and insights, offering a mix of behind-the-scenes stories, performance techniques, and even a dash of "what if" when it comes to the fate of their characters. We couldn't get enough. Each interview is also available separately on our YouTube channel—subscribe here. Rebel Scum Con, held August 8-10, 2025 is a fan-run event which means the organizers knew exactly what we wanted! Throughout the next month we are sharing ALL that content, so look up episode 525 to and 526 for more interviews. TODAY in Star Wars History 9/2/2014 11 years ago... Star Wars: A New Dawn, written by John Jackson Miller with a foreword by Dave Filoni, was released by Del Rey. Serving as a prequel to Star Wars Rebels, it holds the distinction of being the very first novel in the official new Star Wars canon. We celebrated the book's 10th anniversary back in episode 481—well worth a listen if you missed it! SPONSORS Small World Vacations is an official sponsor of Skywalking Through Neverland.
