ILM CLASSIC IMAGE: THE SEQUELS BEGIN...


The final text synopsis devised for the acetate crawl that would herald the start of THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. Originally, the crawl was not to have been used a against a starfield but was to have been superimposed over the icy wilderness of the planet of Hoth (excellent recreation with original version of the text for the film, via THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK REVISITED by Jamie Benning: The Empire Strikes Back Alternate Crawl - YouTube). In the end, Lucas decided that the starfield motif would become a recognisable element of each STAR WARS movie.
