Icons Unearthed

6 episodes of partial misinformation and a bunch of adults complaining like petulant children.

The tone of those episodes is so off. Why are you all so negative. Lighten up. You skipped past 95% of why Star Wars is great so you could pick it to shreds and find the most mundane mistakes to whine about incessantly.

Most of us loved all of those movies. And this show pretends that everyone hated them because it suits the narrative. Their narrative being 'Star Wars sucks, George Lucas didn't do anything good in it. Please interview us about it so we can complain and bore everyone.

And the ending, George's personal life with the divorce? What's that got to do with Star Wars doco? Talking about him and not giving him the chance to defend himself is quite weak and pathetic.

Watched the ones on The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter which were fascinating... then started the on on James Bond but had to cease half way through the first episode as the narrator was seriously the most irritating presenter you could (never) want to listen to.

I had to see if she was anyone famous as I thought I recognised her voice... and can't for the life of me imagine why she was selected... A big fat no from me.

Besides the ones I've already mentioned that I enjoyed are there any others worth my time and attention? Definitley give the James Bond one a very wide berth is my recommendation.

I just can't take anything from Vice seriously.

Everything they produce is done with either a sensationalist view or from the view of their political ideology. I don't believe anything they produce can be trusted to be accurate or compete.

There are more than a few comments that back up my pint of view with detailed information about the failures of more than one of their productions. From incomplete telling of the History of Batman, to a complete failure of the recounting of the making of Star Wars. Both subjects have literally mountains of source information, and it should be a no-brained to be able to compile that information into complete and accurate histories. Yet Vice failed miserably on both those accounts, therefore there is no possible way to be confident in anything else they produce.

"The Vice Channel" has once again made another excellent gem type series as this one "Icons Unearthed" is fantastic and all pro like as it looks at the behind the scenes making of some of Hollywood's biggest movie franchises. Each episode is so revealing and informative as it features vintage historic behind the scenes footage(some even early movie making moments!) and interviews with cast and crew are given where they give their own takes and thoughts. And the many pop culture experts tell about the secret history of each franchise and how it impacted movie cinema and American pop culture. So far the series has had many seasons as it most popular and most watched and well like one's by me have been the seasons of "Star Wars,", "Batman", and "Marvel". Overall this is one series that film buffs and film and pop culture historians should not miss.

A fan since the beginning. Read the Marvel Comics adaption, the first two issues before the movie came out.

So glad to see Marcia Lucas getting the attention and credit she deserves. She was short-changed by George. She should have received a percentage of the franchise due to her contributions. The same for Ralph McQuarrie, John Williams, Ben Burtt, John Dykstra, and others. Without their contributions, each integral, there would have been no Star Wars.
