‘Star Wars’ is a science fiction, space multi-media franchise created by George Lucas. It began with a single film in 1977 and very quickly became a pop culture sensation expanding into many consecutive films and various other media which in total make this one of the most successful and recognised franchises in history. Star Wars also became a sub-franchise of the one and only Disney when ‘The Walt Disney Company’ bought the franchise from George Lucas in 2012.
The stories follow a variety of characters (and creatures) on their adventures across the galaxy. They live in a universe where humans, robots, droids and all sorts of aliens co-exist, sometimes not so happily. These films each contain a well-executed story in which the main theme revolves around the fight between good and evil. The population is divided between two knightly orders, the noble, peacekeeping Jedi and the ominous, manipulative Sith. A mystical power referred to as ‘The Force’ is a type of energy field that through training and meditation produces various superpowers such as telekinesis, telepathy, precognition, manipulation of physical energy and lots more. The Force is able to be in different ways so it’s used by both orders, the Jedi using the light side of The Force and the Sith using the Dark side. This fight between good and evil is on and heroes must arise to save this galaxy far, far away.
‘Never tell me the odds’ is one of the many memorable quotes from the Star Wars films. When faced with a lethal asteroid field, Han Solo, the space buccaneer who becomes an accidental hero, must navigate the Millennium Falcon and all its passengers safely through. One of the characters on board in this scene is an intelligent droid named C-3PO who informs Han Solo of the devastating odds of survival, 3,720 to 1, to which he responds “never tell me the odds!” This iconic quote is captured and accompanied by the Millennium Falcon on this pin which is absolutely essential for all Star Wars fans!
Superman is one of the most famous fictional characters in pop culture, originally appearing in multiple DC comics that since then has been adapted for various media all over the globe including live action and animated films, many televisions series, quite a few toy lines and multiple video games.
Superman is the formidable alias of sensible, nerdy journalist Clark Kent. Superman was born on the alien planet Krypton and given the name Kal-El. As a baby, his parents place him in a small spaceship and send him to Earth in order to protect him from the planet’s imminent destruction. He is found and adopted by an American couple, Martha and Jonathan Kent, who give him the name Clark Kent and raise him on a farm in a town called Smallville. There he discovers that he holds various superhuman abilities including flight, superhuman strength, enhanced hearing, heat vision, super speed, being bulletproof and many more. The Kent Family decide that with these powers, Clark should use them for good, in a way that benefits humanity. He grows up and moves to a city named Metropolis where he gets a job as a reporter at the Daily Planet. He becomes a costumed, crime-fighting hero, known as Superman, with the intention of protecting the people of Metropolis from a variety of villains including Brainiac, Zod, Bizarro, Doomsday and his archenemy Lex Luthor. Can he manage to thwart these threats to Metropolis while keeping his real identity secret? Can this caped crusader stay the ultimate symbol of truth, justice and hope?
‘Metropolis’ is Superman’s base of operations and where Clark Kent resides. This famous fictional city also includes the Daily Planet building that Clark works at. With this iconic building silhouette in this Metropolis skyline, accompanied with a flying superman, all in the icon blue associated with the franchise, this pin is absolutely quintessential for all Superman fans!
