If Star Wars Were Real: A Look Back In History

When I'm not in the trenches of entertainment publicity, or at a new speakeasy having a whiskey, I'm probably geeking out to sci-fi and government conspiracies.  No, I'm not wearing TV series uniforms and making alien hand salutations, but I am loving Star Wars as it will always be major part of my youth and movie memories.  Now what if it was really part of our history??

Directly from the folks at ISWWR (If Star Wars Were Real) comes this collection of historical photos featuring aspects of the Star Wars universe in the real world.  Wouldn’t history be so much cooler if these were true?  Who’s to say they’re not?

Which is your favorite historical photo!

Movie Art: STAR WARS UNDEAD

It was only a matter of time that someone would combine the undead and ‘Star Wars’. Jeff Hulligan of Cleveland, Ohio, did just that when he conceived this twisted art series to commemorate the 30th anniversary of ‘The Empire Strikes Back’. They were originally created primarily using acrylic paint and ink on torn paper applied to wood canvas.

Jeff is selling prints of all six characters for $50 on Etsy. I just bought a set! Click here to do the same.

Below are individual images of the series, including Stormtrooper, Darth Vader, Rebel Pilot, Boba Fett, C-3PO & R2-D2.
