Officially Cool: The Entire Star Wars Saga in One Picture

Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on November 8, 2007

With the saga complete and the book pretty much closed for Star Wars movies, fans have been forced to find other ways to entertain themselves. That’s ok though, as the Star Wars empire has grown well beyond the six films, transcending all forms of media and putting George Lucas up on a pedestal as the King of All Geekdom (Sorry Harry Knowles, but Lucas is the O.G. – Original Geek). But for anyone who isn’t dressing up like a storm trooper every Halloween for 20 years and worshiping the ground that Mark Hamill walks on, the following photo (Courtesy of MyConfinedSpace) is a pretty good display of the entire saga. In fact, if they ever wrote a “Star Wars for Dummies” book, this could serve as page one. Enjoy.

    This is pretty good time-line/collage of the series, but the older version of Obi-Wan portrayed by Alec Guinness should be displayed, Darth Vader should be clearer and why is Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin) so prominent when his character was rather minor in the series.
  • I am very impressed with the total encapsulation that this image brings to the Star Wars saga. It is great to see that so many people are going to continue to promote and support this phenominal film series! Nice work!

    A real war initiated by your own government, for false/overblown reasons. The only one to blame for the deaths of American Soldiers is the administration.
  • War for fantasy/storytelling purposes has been around since the dawn of civilization. War, has also, been around since the dawn of civilization. In fact, the birth of civilization is pretty much defined by war - the birth of food storage created the first breed of haves and have-nots; thus the birth of war. War in storytelling is interesting because it's about the risk of life and the intensity of fighting for your own life; thus making stories exciting. Look at all action flicks - they're based on the premise that risking your life or physical well being is exciting. Even though it's sad to see war being used impiously for entertainment, at least Star Wars has deeper philosophical meanings and even a message of resistance against the big corporate entities and technology (the Empire). In "Sith", Lucas even went as far as making a subtle little comment about the Bush administration "If you're not with us, you're the enemy too".

    Why is Tarkin so large? Why the snowspeeder commander guy instead of Wedge?!?!?

    Where is Porkins!!!??! (STAY ON TARGET!)
  • It definitely suffers from the lack of a clear depiction of Anakin and Darth Vader. I probably woulda tried to work in a battle droid, some asteroids, the rancor beast, and Wicket (there's a different ewok in there, barely, but the little furballs are woefully unrepresented -- they were responsible for the destruction of the second Death Star, after all!)
  • Um, I'm not sure who your geeky pop culture sources are, but whoever told you that George Lucas is the King of All Geekdom has been smoking rolled up Attack of the Clones joints.

    Most geeks couldn't possibly hold him in lower esteem since the prequels came out.
