Star Wars was loosely based on real events in history as well as mythology. History channel was doing shows about it a while ago. Google "history channel star wars legacy" without the quotations and you can watch the vids or read up on it. It's kinda interesting.
Well... Lucas said himself in an interview that he used his own life as an inspirtation on some of the story, but that wouldn't make it into a movie that was based on a true story LOL
it is....watch the fucking history channel. Lucas drew the emperor from 20th century dictators. Stormtroopers were originally Hitler's SS. And the concept of a galactic senate consolidating power came from the Roman Rise to power. amongst other things.
I realize that they're not all based on truth. However, it is still stupid that people say "oh they must be blonde." It didn't seem as if they were making a joke. There is a difference between making jokes and actually believing that blondes are stupid.
i havent watched star wars but unless the girl was the real life 'karen' from mean girls she was probably wondering whether there was some historical event (not involving space, jedis, lightsabers, etc.) that influenced the plot of star wars.
Well actually the idea for starwars was generated during the cold war. Starwars was meant to be a giant shield which protected America from nuclear attack from the Russians. Hence the idea of the tv show Starwars being based on like wars and and "intergalactic" peace kinda like the idea of the cold war. :) Its true not making this shit up. I am pretty sure you can look it up.
Nick Swardson has a new stand-up out and he mentions how he thought it would be funny if at the beginning of Transformers it said it was based on a true story. Nice try, you unoriginal douche bag.
