493: The Art of Star Wars with Craig Miller
Craig Miller is back to help us break down the ultimate Star Wars book, The Art of Star Wars from 1979. Craig was the Director of Fan relations for Lucasfilm from 1977-1980 and had a hand in putting this book together. If you’ve never read The Art of Star Wars, pause the show now and go and get it! It has the Episode IV script, storyboards, international movie posters and it was the first time we ever saw the subtitle, “Episode IV: A New Hope.” And all that is just the tip of the iceberg. Do you own any “Art of ____” books? This book started it all!

Happy 40th Anniversary to The Ewok Adventure which premiered on ABC. The film stars Eric Walker, Aubree Miller, and Warwick Davis who returns as Wicket the Ewok.
To hear many stories about The Ewok Adventure listen to Episode 56 where we formed our friendship with Eric Walker, the Original Mace: Episode 56: The Ewok Adventure with Eric Walker.
Here is the panel we hosted at Celebration 2022, Celebrating the Ewok Adventures with Eric, Kevin and Tracey Thompson. Surprisingly, this was the first Ewok Adventure panel ever held at a Celebration convention: 376: Celebrating the Ewok Adventures – Star Wars Celebration Panel
