Architecture in ''Star Wars'' includes the cities, buildings, ships, and other structures of the fictional ''Star Wars'' universe as described and depicted in books, movies, comics, and cartoons. ''Architects Journal'' ranked the top 10, including the Death Star and the Jedi Temple.〔James Pallister (Top 10: The Architecture of Star Wars (pt II) ) 15 June 2009 Architects Journal (UK)〕 Comparing the urban and natural environments pictured in ''Star Wars'', Mark Lamster wrote that the cities are places of danger and corruption, while the forces of good find sanctuary in the natural world.〔Mark Lamster "Evil foes build ever-more-elaborate urban monstrosities- machines not for living but killing, and killing on a grand scale" (Architecture and film ) Star Wars and the City page 6〕 He also describes the "retro-futurist" cities in the series as being in between those extremes and places of "great beauty but dubious moral character." He attributes the ambivalence towards urbanity to series creator George Lucas' own feelings about cities and urban environments.〔 The settings of the movie have generally been praised, but one author took exception to the "anachronistic period architecture and statuary" of ''Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace'', saying it improperly associated third world buildings with conceptions of innocence and the primitive in a way that was discriminatory and demeaning.〔 ==Planet settings== Luke Skywalker is first seen in ''Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope'' living with his adoptive parents in a "complex of caves and domed structures" on Tatooine, filmed in the Tunisian desert town of Matmata.〔Mark Lamster (Architecture and film ) Wretched Hives: George Lucas and the Ambivalent Architecture of Star Wars page 234〕 The end of the first movie was shot in the Guatemalan rain forest where a celebration with rebel allies takes place in a caved area (a scene said to be borrowed from Leni Riefenstahl's 1935 Nazi propaganda film ''Triumph of the Will''〔). The exotic locales provide scenery that is unfamiliar to "all but a few experts in non-western architecture", providing the films with fantastic settings that could still be believable.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Architecture of Star Wars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
