nagamaki - Franco Posted April 22, 2008 Report Posted April 22, 2008 Thanks for sharing. The armor standing on the far right makes one wonder whether George Lucas ever viewed this display. Quote
Brian Posted April 22, 2008 Report Posted April 22, 2008 Well..it is a fact that the entire Star Wars and even Darth Vader were loosely based on the Samurai. Just a useless bit of info. Brian Quote
Walter Posted April 22, 2008 Report Posted April 22, 2008 Well..it is a fact that the entire Star Wars and even Darth Vader were loosely based on the Samurai. Just a useless bit of info. Brian That's right, George Lucas has produced the whole "Star Wars" saga - at least IV-V-VI episodes under strong inspiration of Akira Kurosawa samurai movies. There's an interview with Lucas in "extras" on Kurosawa's "Yojimbo" Criterion Edition...or was it "Throne of Blood"? Bungo - stunning pre-Columbian samurai armors display! ...just kidding. This guy has a real museum in his place. Quote
