Star Wars is one of the most successful franchises in entertainment history. The idea of a science epic taking place in a fictional universe was created by George Lucas, a writer, producer and director. The first Star Wars film, which is called A New Hope, was released in 1977 and became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon, spawning five television series and an extensive collection of licensed books, comics, video games and other merchandise. It was succeeded by The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi in 1980 and 1983, respectively.
The scripts of Star Wars began with 14 pages of treatment for a space adventure film that Lucas drafted in 1973, inspired by various myths and legends. He described many of the characters in the film essentially identical to humans, since he wanted audiences to feel more relevant to the movies. The characters interact with implausible creatures of many different kinds from numerous planetary systems within the Star Wars galaxy. The world in the movie is portrayed as dirty and grimy, unlike many other science fiction and fantasy films that featured sleek and futuristic worlds. The Star Wars series, which consisted of boundless imagination of the director and highly advanced computer graphics to make it look real, was received with wild enthusiasm, and the public anticipated seeing the following episode.
After having completed Return of the Jedi, however, Lucas announced that he was putting Star Wars on indefinite hold until special effects technology had improved to his satisfaction. While the movie fans all around the world had to wait not knowing if there would another series or not, he kept his words stubbornly. Then, after seeing the effects results of Jurassic Park, Lucas finally decided that he would produce a trilogy of prequels in 1994. When the first prequel, The Phantom Menace was released in 1999, it became one of the biggest hits in movie history, topping Lucas's own box office records for the previous ones.
The Star Wars saga has had an important impact on modern society and has become part of global pop culture. There have been popular novels that parodied both the film and characters of Star Wars and many songs based on the Star Wars universe have been released. Also, most science fiction films have been influenced by and compared to Star Wars and many critics say that the visual and virtual effects that dominate today’s films would have never been created if it were not for Lucas's revolutionizing of the film industry with Star Wars.
