The Story:
This documentary shows a little bit of the rabid fanbase of Star Wars and what they do to celebrate their obsession with the film and the Star Wars universe.
I mean who would dress in costume and go to conventions?
What a bunch of weirdos.
:)
This documentary attempts to hit as much of the fandom as possible.
You've got a guy who makes lightsabers.
You've got a Jedi Academy that teaches you how to properly wield and fight with lightsabers.
No, seriously.
Then you've got the fans who make fan films, including the crew that built a close to full-size Falcon in their back yard for a film.
Still, seriously. ;)
Then there are the women that dress as slave Leia, and there are a ton of them.
The more you like the franchise, the more you'll enjoy this documentary.
Available to stream instantly on Netflix as of this writing.
Final Grade: C
Rewatchability/Purchase Factor: Once was plenty. I'm not that big of a fan! :)
