In The Star Wars Saga Tatooine was a sparsely inhabited desert planet located in the galaxy’s Outer Rim Territories. It was also the home planet of Anakin and Luke Skywalker. Tatooine scenes were actually filmed in the North African country of Tunisia. It got me wondering what U.S. locations could convincingly be used for new Star Wars Saga films. Here are a few suggestions:
- Clone Messiah: A felonious Maralago-ian sociopath escapes imprisonment and takes refuge in an alien fortress with the growing group of previous haters he has frightened into bowing to his will and following him to their eventual and inevitable oblivion. Location: Palm Beach, Florida.
- Stranger Droids: Comic adventure focuses on the journey of two brain damaged droids, Bobo Hanjob and MarJo TrayTor getting into naughty mischief. Suggested location: Georgia’s intelligence-free 14th District
- Revenge of the Sithies: Sithie Boy Drone Matt P-E-D-O aka Lord Shitforbrains is captured and sent to the maximum security penal colony on the planet of Obliviana. Suggested Locations: Everglades Correctional Institution situated deep, deep, deep in the Everglades.
- Star Wars: The Rise of SCOTUS: An evil cabal of nine powerful beings that control the galaxy’s legal system, have six of its maniacs go rogue and sell out for personal gain. Suggested Location: One First Street, NE, Washington D.C.
Enough already, right? I think not.
