There are several scenes in the original Star Wars film that depicted computer graphics on monitors, most notably during the briefing prior to the attack on the Death Star. May not seem like such a big deal today, but back in 1977 it was quite an achievement. How were these primitive graphics created? The answer arrives in a recently unearthed video by Larry Cuba, who performed the services for Lucas while working Circle Graphics Habitat at the University of Illinois, Chicago.

George Lucas has been sued countless times over the years, mostly in an attempt to cash in on bogus claims, but this latest lawsuit may prove tricky.
Between the desks were the white suits and helmets that are known to Star Wars aficionados the world over as the uniform of the Imperial Stormtrooper.
The lawyers working late that night were preparing to do battle with the opposing legal armies of George Lucas, the creator of the Star Wars films, over who owns the copyright on the stormtrooper uniforms, the headgear of the imperial fighter pilots and the helmet designed for Luke Skywalker as he led the final assault on the Death Star in the first film of the original trilogy.
Lucas’s business empire claims that it owns all the rights to the uniforms, while the lawyers at SimmonsCooperAndrew will argue that the rights are in fact vested in an obscure prop designer from Twickenham who made the first helmets and suits for the 1977 film.
The man in question is one Mr. Ainsworth, who created the costumes based on sketches by Ralph McQuarrie. Ainsworth also created the Face Hugger creature in the original Alien. Apparently, Ainsworth's lawyers believe the copyright on the Stormtrooper uniform no longer belongs to Lucas:
Read More (Source: Times Online)Lawyers for Lucasfilm will argue that there was an implied contract to produce the uniforms, which were in any case based on artwork which it provided. Lawyers for Mr Ainsworth will argue that the copyright has expired, because the uniforms were pieces of industrial design rather than works of art. The case is expected to last ten days.
Dispelling the belief that Jedi Knights are comprised of an elite group of Force-tuned warriors comes this humorous video from Dave Hill, which clearly indicates that anyone can be trained in the proper use of a lightsaber.

Someone with way too much time on their hands has gone to a lot of trouble to make me laugh, and hopefully you as well. The video below is a mashup of the awesome There Will Be Blood and Star Wars. It uses Daniel Day-Lewis' chilling dialog as Daniel Plainview and places it in the role of Darth Vader. The result is sweet.

Saul Bass was responsible for tons of great movie title sequences during his 40-year career, including iconic films like North by Northwest, Vertigo, Psycho, Goodfellas and The Seven Year Itch. Saul had a distinct style that was influential with graphic designers across the globe. Hell, even the movie posers he designed, like The Shining and The Man with the Golden Arm, were beyond cool.
So it was with great interest and a wide smile that I viewed this video, created by Bhilmers as a school project, that poses one simple question: what if Saul Bass had done the title sequence for Star Wars?
