10 Great "Hard To Find" Behind The Scenes Documentaries

7. The Star Wars Saga: When Star Wars Ruled The World VH1 Documentary

The world is positively lousy with Star Wars documentary material so forgive me for inflicting another self congratulatory myth making piece of fluff on you. But honestly out of all the Star Wars behind the scenes stuff I've seen (and I've seen a lot) this has got to be one of the best. Short, concise, funny, honest, and... did I mention short? Best of all no George Lucas. I know it's weird to appreciate a behind the scenes doc of a movie for "not" including its director, but seriously, I've had enough of George Lucas' Long winded pontifications about the making of his beloved franchise. Its great to hear some of his actors and fans let lose in an informal manner about the films instead of hearing the same old stories from the same old talking heads we've known since 1977. Although I could do without the Kevin Smith stuff. Enough is enough already. We get it; you really like Star Wars. Now can you please stop taking about it. Although his comments about the afro-centric Darth Vader are be very humorous.
