I watched the Star Wars documentary. i didn't realize how much George Lucas had revolutionized film making. the film came out just as the war in Vietnam was ending. The film was based in the future and full of hope and high morals. the foundation of Star Wars was based around myths and world religions and the connections between them. Lucas found universal motifs. And encorporated the damsel, the "coming of age" youth, the wise old man, and the swashbuckler in his movie. When Lucas made the film he made sure to get control of all the merchandizing rights.
Star Wars greatly changed the way cinema was made. it raised the standard immensely. the visual effects were revolutionary, a new company ILN was made. The dynamic motion of the film kept people interested. Lucas introduced the "used future" making it believable. Now a days we take a lot of the visual effects for granted because the can be done on computers. For example i never knew that the droids actually had people inside of them.

I feel as time has progressed, the more people have taken things for gratned. Not too long ago a dollar meant a lot now days people freely give the $1 bill away as though it has no value. The dynamics of film making has changed dramatically and I feel that in tnext couple of years it will be as easy as typing on this computer.
Yeah people defonatly take things for granted nowadays. I agree with you. But how do you think film making will be so easy in the future?
