star wars

An epic American space opera franchise created by filmmaker George Lucas, originally produced by Lucasfilms before Disney later acquired the rights in 2012. It is a science fiction and fantasy story set in a faraway galaxy. Chronicling the galactic-scale conflict primarily involves the benevolent Jedi and the evil Sith faction.

The Star Wars saga has had a significant impact on popular culture; is one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. Because of its huge success across the world during the late 70s, several media including Japanese anime and manga from that era were heavily inspired by it.

A little known fact is that Lucas based SW in several previous works like Flash Gordon (of which Lucas is a fan since childhood after watching several of the movie serials, and was originally intended to be adapted into film by him but the project did not come to fruition), Kurosawa Akira's Samurai films and Dune.
