Trade Federation Screen Inspired by Flash Gordon
When:
On the Trade Federation Ship.
Where:
When Queen Amadala is talking to the Viceroy.
Story:
theForce.Net readers Brad "Fryguy" Newman and Mark "JediSluggo" Johnson report the following:
"The beginning of the tape shows the inspirations that Lucas had for Star Wars. Among these was a Flash Gordon clip that shows a viewscreen that strongly resembles the screen on the bridge of the Neimoidian ship."
You can see a small QuickTime movie of the Flash Gordon bit over at TFN's Guide to Hidden Images and Cameos. Above is a screenshot from the film (right) and from TFN's Flash Gordon bit (left).
