(13) Movie- A Great Disturbance (1 Hour, 30 Minutes - Video - Rating: PG)
What began as a simple three day shoot at the Celebration in April 2005, became an even bigger production as the crew realized the potential the raw footage had if accompanied by scripted and improved interviews as well as filming the characters in their own environment both before and after the Celebration. The end result is a hilarious yet true look into Star Wars fandom...a film that can be enjoyed by hard core Star Wars fans and even people who have never heard of Luke Skywalker.
