<p>Revan: Fixed the siting of the spin off movies.</p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:462px-Star wars dvd cover.jpg|right|thumb|Cover of the 2004 [[DVD]] widescreen release of Star Wars Trilogy.]]<br /> :''Disambiguation: This article deals with the science fiction saga, not the [[Strategic Defense Initiative]] (SDI).''<br /> <br /> '''Star Wars''' is a science fiction film saga and fictional universe created by American director [[George Lucas]]. The movies that were made earlier ''(Episodes 4, 5, and 6)'' are renowned as classics of cinema, and were some of the first &quot;summer blockbusters&quot; ever made. Episodes 1, 2 and 3 were released in 1999, 2002 and 2005 respectively. All six movies are amongst the top 25 highest grossing films of all time.&lt;ref&gt;http://imdb.com/boxoffice/alltimegross&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> In 1984 and 1985, two spinoff movies to the original trilogy (Episode 4,5 and 6) were made featuring the Ewok characters seen Episode 6, Return of the Jedi.<br /> <br /> [[George Lucas]] built on the idea of the [[monomyth]] - a dominant mythic structure that for some reason resounds especially strongly with the human psyche - in structuring his narrative. He consulted closely with [[Joseph Campbell]], author of the book, &quot;Hero of a Thousand Faces,&quot; towards the end of utilizing [[monomyth]] structure especially well. In ''Star Wars'' (now known as Star Wars Episode 4:A new Hope), the reluctant hero is obviously [[Luke Skywalker]], the teacher [[Obi Wan Kenobi]], and the inner world the galaxy at large.<br /> <br /> Star Wars even became forever became linked to politics when a missile-defense plan was devised under the Reagan administration which was nick-named Star Wars.<br /> <br /> Several novels have been written as follow ups to the films. <br /> <br /> [[Category:Movies]]<br /> [[Category:Science fiction]]</div>
