Reportedly, even George Lucas didn't believe in the original Star Wars movie. There weren't any sequels planned when the first film was released. It was a science-fiction movie that had a limited fan base. Lucas allegedly predicted it was going to be popular for a couple of weekends, but then die a quick death after the target audience had watched it. No one expected that nearly half a century later there would be new films and series announced and launched every year. And no one thought Star Wars would get its own day. Yet here we are, once again celebrating May the 4th.
Celebrating Star Wars Day is a little like eating a peanut butter-filled chocolate cup — there's really no wrong way to do it. However, if you need some help brainstorming, here are a few things you can do:
