Star Wars Will Live On Forever

With six blockbuster movies, and countless books, video games, and comic books over a 30 year span, Star Wars is one of the most enduring sci-fi franchises in all of pop culture.With more Star Wars shirts available to buy than you could possibly ever need the popularity of the franchise shows no signs of stopping any time soon.

The series envisioned by director George Lucas is set in a distant galaxy with varying alien races and planets living amongst humans.The advent of space travel in the Star Wars universe has allowed interplanetary travel, with many planets in the galaxy joining to form the Galactic Empire.

Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope was the franchise's first offering.A New Hope was well-received worldwide, and audienced everywhere craved a continuation of the story.Sequels for A New Hope were released, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi, which combined with A New Hope formed the Original Trilogy of Star Wars films.

The Original Trilogy focused on a young farm boy named Luke Skywalker who leaves home and joins a rebel alliance to rescue Princess Leia from Darth Vader and the evil Empire.Other notable characters include the suave Han Solo and his trusty sidekick Chewbacca, a hairy Wookiee alien.Helping Luke defeat the evil Empire is his discovery of the Force, a power used by Jedis to perform astonishing mental and physical feats.If you particularly like a specific character you can be sure to find a Star Wars t-shirt or poster that features the character if you feel the need.

More Star Wars movies were released, this time prequels to the first three movies, or the Prequel Trilogy as it is summed up.The prequels are composed of Episodes I to III, namely, The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith.The Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker star in the prequels, crafting a tale of master and pupil that serves as backstory for the Original Trilogy.

The franchise was originally envisioned as a nine-part series, with episodes VI to IX yet to be produced.A Star Wars television series is also being planned.I'm sure more related products like Star Wars tee shirts will accompany the television series.
