Book Review - Star Wars on Trial
Star Wars on Trial:
Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Debate the Most Popular Science Fiction Films of All Time
Edited by David Brin & Matthew Woodring Stover
Internet Review of Science Fiction
So what's the deal with this whole Star Wars thing? The first time I realized there was something different about these movies was back in the mid-'80s when I discovered that my boss's son—a preschooler—settled in every single day for a screening of what then was simply known as Star Wars. It occurred to me that a movie that's able to hold a toddler's attention for several hours and to keep him coming back day after day must be something out of the ordinary.
