Just type George Lucas in Facebook and he should pop up!

You could even ask him a question!

Be Kind Rewind

Absolutely brilliant. We watched it last night after a long couple of days working on the new website. It’s so funny for us, especially as it so accurately captures what it was like for us when we first started making our films and sketches.
