The "Starwell War" can be held in a galaxy far, away, but George Lucas and every director who made his mark on the legendary franchise, as his inception should do here on Earth. One of the biggest tricks in the history of the cinema is that Lucas and other directors have managed to make a whole galaxy from the planet we all live on. It, at times, took these productions to exotic locations, such as Tunisia, and not so exotic as, as, in one case, Lucas's own pool for a scene in "The Empire Rays Back".

Despite how many of us we would like, we will never visit places like Tatuin or Nabu. Disney offered fans something close to visiting "Starwells War" Galaxy in Real Life with Galaxy Edge Themate Park in Disneyland And Disney the world, but it turns out that fans of "Returning to the EDI" can get closer to the right thing by visiting a national park in California.

Grizzlie Creek Redwoods celebrated as a location in the real world where Lucas and director Richard Marcand created Endor's moon, the location where Evox helped the rebellion overthrow the empire. It is one of the relatively few shooting locations in the United States where the films "War on the Starvers" have been shot, so it has become a relatively popular pilgrimage to hardcore fans.

However, there is little catch here. While Grizzly Creek was one of the locations used to shoot some of Endor's scenes, not everyone was filmed there. Many of the scenes were filmed on private land in Del Norte County and Humboldt. Not only are those countries not available to the general public, but the trees that once stood there that made up the lush sight of Endor are no longer.

Lucasfilm originally wanted to be shot in the Muir Forest in California, walking under The name of the "Blue Harvest" production to try and mask that this is really a movie "War of Starwelles". However, the planned use of pyrotechnics has complicated things.

"Despite the constant rumor about the opposite, none of the films" War of Starwells "was filmed in Muir Woods," said Ianulian Espinosa, a spokesman for the National Park Service. Sfgate In December 2022. "Due to its small size, sensitive resources and a high visit, a little commercial photography has happened in Muir Woods over the years."

Production had to be turned elsewhere. This is where the Del Norte County enters. Ernie Perry, a retired worker for Del Norte County, explained to SFGate in the same article:

"On the property of the Park Service, every time they raise the issue of pyrotechnics, it was a contract killer. The scout demanded private land and happened to enter a man who took them to the company Miller-Relim Redwood.

The company planned to collect trees on Earth, what pyrotechnics did and whatever the crew wanted to make a non-problem. The crew has completely reshaped the parts of the country to craft endor as we know it. The vast majority of that recording occurred on private land. Unfortunately, that private land was completely reduced by the announcement company just months after the recording of the "Return of the EDI" was completed. But don't be afraid! Fans who want endor taste can still get.

"You can visit the grove where the scene was filmed," explained Nate Adams, Deputy Director of the Fumbolt-Dell Norte Film Commission, in that work of SFGate. "It's out of highway 36 at Grizzlie Creek State Park along the Cham Grove track," Adams said. "When you go there, you will recognize some of the fallen trees near the track. I was there last year to help ("The world according to Effef Goldblum") and immediately recognized the trees 40 years later."

EDI's return hit theaters in 1983 and brought the original trilogy nearby. Endor and Evok played a huge role in playing the empire and none of this would be possible without these lively, forested countries in Northern California. Although some of them are now gone, what remains is a little piece of a distant galaxy right here on Earth.
