INDUSTRIAL LIGHT & MAGIC: Kerner Tour with Sean House

Video

In 1978, George moved ILM from Southern California up north to San Rafael into a facility on Kerner Blvd, where it stayed until 2005. Thanks to veteran filmmaker Sean House, RFR was recently allowed access to this former home of ILM and important location of film history. This is the place where STAR WARS special effects from EMPIRE to REVENGE OF THE SITH were created. It’s the location where the CGI dinosaurs from JURASSIC PARK were born, the home of THX, and effects for RAIDERS, E.T. and so many more groundbreaking films were created. It’s still in use today as 32Ten Studios and still creating amazing effects. We take a tour and are joined by effects wiz Sean House who joins us to talk about his career, his history with ILM and shares behind-the-scenes stories you’ve never heard before about working with George Lucas and Rick McCallum.

Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back | Trailer

Video

Watch The Empire Strikes Back theatrical trailer, which debuted in fall 1979 and gave audiences their first look at the sequel to Star Wars. In addition to a sampling of scenes taken from the entire movie, the trailer surprisingly features footage that was cut from the final film, including a kiss between Luke and Leia, C-3PO removing a warning sticket from a door in the Rebel base on Hoth, and more. Most interesting, however, is the voiceover — provided by none other than Harrison Ford himself.

Star Wars: Theatrical Re-Release Trailer (1981)

Video

This Star Wars trailer is for a limited two-week re-release of the film on April 10, 1981. This re-release was historic, as it would mark the first appearance of “Episode IV A New Hope” in the movie’s opening crawl, officially rebranding the film as Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope — in its original release, it was simply called Star Wars.

The short trailer features clips from several scenes, including Han Solo blasting Stormtroopers on Tatooine, Luke Skywalker’s encounter with Sand People, and the Millennium Falcon’s escape from the Death Star. The trailer’s narrator calls the film “legendary” and describes it as “the most popular film of all time” — referencing the box office record for ticket sales held by Star Wars at the time.

And So the End Begins…Obi-Wan Kenobi

Video

Well, the day has arrived, the final episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi is here.

“The fight is done. We lost.”— Obi-Wan Kenobi

From Lucasfilm comes “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” the new limited Star Wars series created exclusively for Disney+. The series stars Ewan McGregor, reprising his role as the iconic Jedi Master.

“Obi-Wan Kenobi” begins 10 years after the dramatic events of “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith” where Obi-Wan Kenobi faced his greatest defeat—the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, who turned to the dark side as evil Sith Lord Darth Vader.
