MARK'S NOTCAST Ep 30 : "Star Wars" (1977) 18 December 2020


NOTCAST Ep 30 : 18 December 2020. In which I talk about the original 1977 "Star Wars" movie, the novelisation by George Lucas/Alan Dean Foster, the 1977 / 1997 / 2014 graphic novel adaptations, George Lucas' First Draft that is utterly a Jive-Bunny-Mash-Up of all Star Wars Ever, Star Wars Annuals, soundtrack albums, the Empire's supply chain, How Star Wars Was Saved In The Edit, Darth Vader as a Bristolian, the 2019 Blu Ray - and how you can now see Darth's eyes! -, how Star Wars is a crap sequel to "Revenge Of The Sith" (what are these new characters? Why does Chewbacca get such a big role? Is the Emperor camera shy and always just out of shot / leaving the room when a scene starts?), and how people growing up in the Seventies learnt their approach to office politics and promoting staff by i) killing the nearest guy standing to you and ii) promoting whomever was walking past. Pretty sure this is how the Government manage their Cabinet as well. "Apology Accepted, General Gove".
