George Lucas is known for the creation of the Star Wars film series. Even if you have not seen every movie created in the series, you have at least heard about it. The series began with Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977). This is a time when the film industry knew little about computer generated imagery and special effects. Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back (1980) was released three years after Episode IV.
