“Bespin” by Kevin Wilson:
Looks like an old 80s poster we could all easily buy back then. I love that 80’s retro “warm” style and colouring.
“In the future it will become even easier for old negatives to become lost and be “replaced” by new altered negatives. This would be a great loss to our society. Our cultural history must not be allowed to be rewritten.” - George Lucas
by Christian Rehde. A cool nod to Jeremy Bulloch’s portrayal of Boba.
I can almost hear Jason Wingreen’s voice from the original cuts just looking at that picture.
“The thing about Star Wars is that there’s one universe” & “Everyone wants to know stuff, like, where did Mace get that purple lightsaber? We want to establish that there’s one and only one answer” - Leland Chee, Continuity Database administrator for Lucasfilm, aka ‘Keeper of the Holocron’, 2008.

“Don’t tell anyone… but when ‘Star Wars’ first came out, I didn’t know where it was going either. The trick is to pretend you’ve planned the whole thing out in advance. Throw in some father issues and references to other stories - let’s call them homages - and you’ve got a series.” - George Lucas
Empire Strikes Back:
