A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY is a documentary about the STAR WARS phenomenon and its fan base, ranging from the fanatical: Waiting in line to see THE PHANTOM MENACE for 42 days, to the completely bonkers: STAR WARS as a lifestyle / philosophy / religion.
There are interviews with uber-Producer / Director Roger Corman, and a therapist. Fans at various conventions are also interviewed. Celebrity cameos abound, including Meatloaf, Joe Pesci, and Robert Logia.
This film investigates not only the fans, but also the mythology, merchandise, and mania of the SW subculture.
BEST BITS: #1- When Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Corolla cut in front of the line, causing a confrontation with the fans! #2- The hilarious Trekkies protest!
Very well done for the low budget...
