BEHIND THE SCENES: SHOOTING JAWAS!


At the Salt Flats location in Tunisia, the original Star Wars lensman John Jay captures the main group of Jawas by their Sandcrawler in between takes for this great image, which was apparently one of Jay's favourites taken for the movie way back in Spring, 1976.

EPISODE I: FRIENDS, WARRIORS AND HEROES!


The two Jedi heroes who'd excitingly kick off the Prequel Trilogy of 1999, and help cement a new legacy for worldwide fans and audiences of all ages alongside the existing Original Trilogy, pose for a great image with the iconic Artoo Detoo, taken within one of the Trade Federation vessel corridors at the UK's Leavesden Studios.

 A terrific shot from 1997 for Episode I, one of numerous character publicity images for magazine/media usage, taken by popular US lensman Matthew Rolston.

EPISODE IX: THE TIE WHISPER MAKES ITS MARK!


Spanning the galaxy to do Kylo Ren's evildoing as the supreme force of the First Order, the memorable TIE Whisper fighter was a fine addition to the Sequel space craft universe, making its way from the mysterious world of Mustafar to the evil realms pf the Dark Side on Exegol, during the exciting beginning to The Rise of Skywalker.

CLASSIC INDY: AN 'INTOLERABLE' SITUATION!


They've been captured by those damn Nazis, betrayed by a once friend, and now imprisoned in a castle on the Austrian border, where they soon find themselves in an inferno. But through it all, Indiana Jones and his 'dad' will get through such hardship via the pure cinematic adventure and humour that is Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade!

CLASSIC ART: VOLCANIC CONFLICT!



The George Lucas equivalent of 'Hell' to be realised for the dramatic finale to Episode III, as the volcanic realms of Mustafar unleash their dark and terrifying powers of energy and destruction in this great concept art by Erik Tiemens. which also clearly makes Mustafar a firm part of the originally planned planet-spanning Clone Wars battle montage sequence to have started the film.

'OBI-WAN KENOBI': ALDERAAN BECOMES REALITY!


One of the joys of the Obi-Wan Kenobi mini-series of 2022 was seeing more of the young Princess Leia Organa's life (as delightfully played by Vivian Lyra Blair) on her adopted home world of Alderaan (beyond the small enticing visuals we saw at the end of Episode III) and its society, sequences well captured in these two great behind the scenes images from the opening episodes.


The ILM Stagecraft technique proves impressive.

EPISODE VIII: FATHIER FAMILIARITY!


Having escaped the rotten core that is the Canto Bight casino realm, Rose Tico gets a memorable goodbye and thank you from one of the liberated Fathier creatures, a moment clearly enjoyed by Kelly Marie Tran too, during a fun day's filming for The Last Jedi
