Tonight on the Discovery channel, Mythbusters is going to have a Star Wars special where they test various myths from the legendary sci-fi franchise. For those that have never seen Mythbusters, it is a reality series where the hosts test myths scientifically to determine whether or not said myth is even possible. Most of the hosts of the show actually worked at Industrial Light and Magic (ILM) on the Star Wars prequels. Above is a video of the hosts discussing how Star Wars impacted their careers and the one below is a clip from the upcoming episode. Mythbusters has been around for over ten years and I have been a fan of the series since the beginning and I have watched all 231 episodes, so you could say that I am a fan. Reality television is not something that I discuss often on this blog, but Mythbusters is my favorite of the genre. Does anyone else watch Mythbusters? Are you interested in the Star Wars special? Please comment below and let me know.
Below is a video of the hosts discussing which franchise had more of an impact on special effects.
