POPULARITY
A very dense soup is best consumed with little nibbles. Wait. Maybe that's popcorn. With the fourth set of tens we make it to the receding Star Wars Logo and a certain point of view! That title, A New Hope, was not apart of the original release in 1977. Talk of The Day the Earth Stood Still (the original) is jabbered about. Fear, the base emotion, is recognized. Heavy theremin howled about. Beyond first contact, matter of factness is still a mindblower. Paul, the movie, not the host is recalled. Is Seth Rogan in it. Wait. What! Phew, take 10. We must strive; the awake only point the way. Those meditative ones who tread the Path are free from the bonds of ignorance.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…This line would set up the two-word title card of what would become synonymous with a multibillion dollar franchise spanning generations of adoring fans.But the version of the Star Wars logo that appeared in theatres in May 1977 was not the work of George Lucas. Nor was it the work of the veteran designer who was contracted to create versions for movie theatre marquis and most of the movie’s print advertising. It was actually designed for a brochure by a 22-year-old art director, who was new to working on feature films, and whose name doesn’t even appear in the film’s credits.Hold On To Your Potatoes. This is the story of how the Star Wars logo was created.
Well Star Wars has been out almost two months, and I figured after my 3 hour podcast with Troy got not recorded, that I should finally try and record something that does go out. So I figured the part that is most important to me is how I believe that they did a better job on this movie then the movie itself. So here is is, hope you enjoy!
Star Wars, nothing but Star Wars! Wie bereits angesprochen, ist Weihnachten 2015 eigentlich „Star Wars 2015“ oder – wenn man Chris ist „KRIEG DER STERNE ZWEITAUSENDUNDFÜNFZEHN!“ Wir widmen den drei ursprünglich erschienenen Filmen aus dem Hause Lucasfilm fast fünf Stunden Podcast – was auch erklärt, weshalb Prequels, Spiele, Bücher, Serien, Servietten und Genitalhygenie mit dem berühmten Star-Wars-Logo nur eine untergeordnete Rolle spielen. Aber keine Sorge: Vieles davon werden wir in künftigen Episoden thematisieren, doch zunächst wollten wir – beflügelt von Episode VII, der hier natürlich ebenfalls besprochen wird, einen Grundstein für den Rest dieses unfassbar großen Universums legen. Die Regeln unseres dreiunddreißigsten Trinkspiels: In Level 1 wird für jedes Erwähnen von X-Wings und TIE-Fightern getrunken (Mehrfachnennungen zählen natürlich auch!). In Level 2 trinkt ihr, für die Nennung von Luke, Obi-Wan und Han Solo. In Level 3 trinkt ihr für die Nennung von Sith, Jedi und George Lucas. In Level 4 trinkt ihr aus, wenn der Realismus von Star Wars angesprochen wird. Erlebnisberichte bitte in die Kommentare (wir rufen hiermit keinesfalls zu einem übermäßigen oder unverantwortlichen Konsum von Alkohol auf – aber wenn Ihr sowieso ein Trinkspiel spielt, wieso nicht dieses?) Das aktuelle Cover stammt von Serientäter Oleg – es war uns wie immer eine Ehre Model zu “stehen“. Hinweis: Auch in diesem Podcast haben wir zahlreiche Fehler versteckt, Brian Henson zum Beispiel ist nicht der Bruder, sondern wie Christian richtig sagt: der Sohn von Jim Henson; außerdem ist der Star-Wars-Weihnachtspunsch alkoholfrei. Wer weitere findet: ab damit in die Kommentare!
