In terms of the film itself, there was nothing much very new about 'Star Wars.' 'Star Wars' was a trailblazer for the kind of monumentalist pastiche which has become standard in a homogeneous Hollywood blockbuster culture that, perhaps more than any other film, 'Star Wars' played a role in inventing.
I'm lucky that I have my family, I'm lucky that my parents are still together. Those are the things that I cherish.
We recognize that there have been acts in the past that are Asian or Korean who tried to go, 'Hey, I'm a huge star in Korea, I'm a huge star in Asia so you guys need to respect me for being a huge star there.' But I don't know. As much as we may be big, we have to be very humble and start from the ground up in the States.
It was lucky for me. It wasn't lucky for the nine people that got killed and the 20 that were injured.
Everybody comes up with this term lucky-"Oh, she's so lucky." Even though I was lucky, I had a lot of struggle before that. I said I was going to give up everything at age 25 and get into event management because nothing was going for me. I used to have a lot of nervous breakdowns.
I'm track 3 with fabulous French dialogue on the 'Star Is Born' album. I'm track 3 'NASA' on Ariana Grande's album. From 'All Stars 3,' went to 'Drag Race' three times, never won. Three is my lucky number.
I like to be creative and I'm lucky that I have a couple of different outlets, and I'm lucky that I get to use them.
'Star Wars' is life, but 'Star Wars' is also not very good, which is why 'Rogue One' - a Frankenstein's monster assembled from a butchered first cut and an excessively large space antenna that only exists to add another 30 minutes to the film - is one of the better 'Star Wars' movies.
I'm a YouTube star, let's put it that way!That sounds like a karaoke star with balls.
There was a star riding through clouds one night, & I said to the star, 'Consume me'.
I was a big fan of 'Star Trek.' But then again, you know, 'Star Trek', 'Star Wars', 'Doctor Who', I wasn't a big fan, but you know, when they ask you and they cast you and it drops in your lap, how can you say no to these franchises.
The star of Bethlehem was a star of hope that led the wise men to the fulfillment of their expectations, the success of their expedition. Nothing in this world is more fundamental for success in life than hope, and this star pointed to our only source for true hope: Jesus Christ.
Money makes your life easier. If you're lucky to have it, you're lucky.
If I was a star, it would be difficult to go off and do 'Coronation Street.' So I guess I'm not a star.
I was a star in England, but Ive never been a star in America. Now I am.
I'm not a rock star. Sure I am, to a certain extent because of the situation, but when kids ask me how it feels to be a rock star, I say leave me alone, I'm not a rock star. I'm not in it for the fame, I'm in it because I like to play.
Overall, I think I'm just lucky, and I hope I continue to be lucky.
As a kid, 'Star Wars' was much more my thing than 'Star Trek' was.
Ultimately, making movies, if you don't have a big star, it's hard to do. Or if it's not a star director.

Seven is a lucky number, so I plan to do a lot of lucky things with my seventh place title.
Every day I searched for the star
That never was in the sky
Now I see that star is on the earth
Inside every TV star is a movie star screaming to get out, and Donna Frenzel, with whom I'm guessing you're not instantly familiar, made George Clooney a movie star once and for all in the first ten minutes of his fifth feature, 1998's 'Out of Sight.'
Queen songs are not about the life of a rock star - they tend to be about the lives of normal people, which is why I think the songs connect so much. We're very lucky that they seemingly connect with every generation.
I can't deal with the ears in 'Star Trek.' I only saw the first 'Star Wars' movie, and I don't think I saw an entire 'Star Trek' TV show, and I certainly didn't see the movie. I like 'Andy Griffith' and 'Deadwood.'
To me, the All-Star Game is just another step. I try to take all my experiences and put them together. To make the NBA was something, and then to be recognized as an All-Star - although I don't consider myself a star. I see myself as just trying to reach my potential as B. J.
I was lucky enough to get to perform on stage in front of 20 million people on TV, and 150 thousand in concerts. For 15 minutes I got to be a rock star, the 15 minutes is great! It turns into Spinal Tap after 20 minutes.
I like to consider myself a star - a star, that when you look in the sky, it's always there. And on a clear night... a shooting star comes by, and get a little thrill, and you make a little wish. You need both types of stars, the shooting and the constant stars. The heavens include them all.
The sun shine comes, you see the shine you see the color, when night comes you the stars you see the dark the blooming moon you choose a star you follow the star it comes in your dreams you follow stars once a light bug dies you see a new star you follow the star your dreams come true.
I did a few movies, but the word 'star'... I cannot compare to a star like Clint Eastwood. I used to call Clint 'Larry Dickman' when he would come to my show; then, he started using the name when he would go under cover in a 'Dirty Harry' movie. That's why he's a movie star... he's so creative.
One day I decided I was a star and I would walk to school with my head held high. I would walk to school in my stilettos and high heels, listening to 'Lucky' by Britney Spears.
That's the beauty of being a comedian - it's the one job you're allowed to do that. We're lucky. We're really lucky.
We are all lucky to be here, we are lucky to be on stage and have millions of people watch us.
Most people with a big idea, great talent and/or something to say don't get lucky at first. Or second. Or even third. It's so easy to conclude that if you're not lucky, you're not good. So persistence becomes an essential element of good, because without persistence, you never get a chance to get lucky.
That’s the beauty of being a comedian: it’s the one job you’re allowed to do that. We’re lucky. We’re really lucky.
I was a star in England, but I've never been a star in America. Now I am.
If there was any show I could guest star on, I would want to guest star on 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars' because I am such a nerd and I love that show. If there was ever an opportunity to be on that, I would snatch it up.
I manage a toast to the Christmas tree and one to the sweet absurdity in the miracle of the verb to be. Lucky you, lucky me.
I'm not a star, and I don't want to be a star. Stars fall. I'm an ordinary guy with an extraordinary job.
I'm lucky to get to do the job that I do. I'm really lucky to be able to work in so many different areas of this industry.
I walk, talk, and act like a star, and guess what? I am a star.
All my friends were 'Star Wars' kids but I didn't go to the movies, so I was the 'Star Trek' kid.
It takes a very unique individual to be a star, and a main event star.
The Beatles are lucky, very lucky. But what has happened to them has nothing to do with them, in a sense. They came along at the right time. Attention was focused on them. They've had the chance to grow in almost any direction they wanted. Very lucky. They are not exceptionally talented.
I talked to George Lucas once, not about Star Wars. Everyone wants to talk to him about Star Wars, and I didn't want to be one of those people. In person - at least on this occasion - he wasn't effervescent and giddy, as the Star Wars movies are. He's more focused.
My life has been a fortunate one; I was born under a lucky star. It seems as if both wind and tide had favoured me. I have suffered no great losses, or defeats, or illness, or accidents, and have undergone no great struggles or privations; I have had no grouch. I have not wanted the earth.
If you have two friends in your lifetime, you're lucky. If you have one good friend, you're more than lucky
I feel really lucky, although I hate that word - 'lucky'.
When Christ ascended Triumphantly from star to star He left the gates of Heaven ajar.
The proverb says, "Born lucky, always lucky," and I am very superstitious. As a small boy I was notoriously lucky. It was usual for one or two of our lads (per annum) to get drowned in the Mississippi or in Bear Creek, but I was pulled out in a 2/3 drowned condition 9 times before I learned to swim, and was considered to be a cat in disguise.
I don't want to be labeled a star, or billed as a star. I'm a messenger, really, and when I get work to do, I have to do it.
Everyone gets lucky once in a while, but no one is consistently lucky.
It's definitely pretty overwhelming sometimes. But I'm really lucky and grateful to have all these fans. I know I'm lucky.
I don't really believe in lucky things, but I wear lucky underwear as a joke.
I hate when people call me a star, because I don't consider myself to be a star.
Well, I don't like the word 'rock star,' the two words, 'rock star.' Not even 'soft rock star. Not even limestone star. I don't like those words.
You become a star not because of your title; you become a star because you are adding star value to the company
To be in this business and be a star, not just be on the card, to be a star puts a demand on your time.
I was lucky that it hit my shaft, and then my helmet, and I was lucky enough to get that breakaway.
