More George Lucas Chicago Award Coverage

Posted By Justin on June 15, 2009



As a follow-up to the original "George Lucas Honored In Chicago" story and special Force-Cast interview, we have a few more story links to share with you that cover this event.

First up is a story from Bill Zwecker at the Chicago Sun Times which makes reference to the interview our own Jimmy Mac was privileged enough to do with Mr. Lucas:

"Moments after Hobson talked about Lucas' ''secret'' sense of humor, the filmmaking legend zinged a radio reporter when handed a strange-looking microphone contraption resembling a police device. ''Is that a Taser? Are you trying to tase me?'' quipped the guy who created light sabers and blasters."

Next we have a video report from Dean Richards of WGN Morning News in Chicago and what he thought of the award event.

And we finish up with these two story links from ClubJade.net:

More On George In Chicago


We'll be sure to keep you updated on any new stories pertaining to the award ceremony as they come our way!


UPDATE: Cris Macht and The Force Among Us production team prepared a very cool video tribute to that was shown to the audience just prior to George hitting the stage. Lucas even passed along his personal thanks.
