Skywalker Ranch - in The Media

In The Media

The 2009 comedy film Fanboys is the story of five Star Wars fans on their quest to break into Skywalker Ranch and steal a rough cut of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace before its official release. The Ranch hosted Bill Moyers and Joseph Campbell for interviews for the The Power of Myth documentary in the late 1980s. Campbell's works were influential to George Lucas in creating the Star Wars universe. Years later, Moyers returned to the Ranch to interview Lucas for a documentary titled The Mythology of Star Wars around the time Star Wars: Episode I was in production.

In 1996, the band Journey recorded the music video for their song When You Love a Woman inside the Scoring Stage of the Ranch.

Famous quotes containing the word media:

    Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
