Summary
Star Wars. The $70B franchise... that basically no one wanted to make. This week Chris & Lizzie learn how George Lucas’ failure to adapt Flash Gordon spawned THX, Industrial Light & Magic, and generations of zealous followers.
CORRECTIONS:
*Chris made the epic blunder of stating that actor David Prowse had a Scottish accent - he's from Bristol, UK. Apologies to our friends across the pond!
