Big Shiny Robot! in conjunction with The Star Wars Examiner will be giving away 5 copies of the Star Wars fan documentary A Galaxy Far Far Away, distributed by Cinevolve Studios.
This is a 10th anniversary, digitally remastered version of the film, which documents groups of fans across the country as they waited in line, eagerly anticipating the release of The Phatnom Menace. It features interviews with Samuel L. Jackson, Joe Pesci, Dave Prowse, Kenny Baker, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and others.
My only problem with the film is that they didn’t include me in it. As some of you may have known, I spent 31 days in line for Phantom Menace and any reliable documentary about lining up for Star Wars should probably at least mention me. I guess I’m kidding, but at any rate, I’m excited to see this.
I’ll be reviewing the film soon, but in the meantime, we’re having a contest where we’ll be giving away five copies of the film.
