What famous space-opera was screened in Tataouine, a city in southern Tunisia?

This is the first time I ever heard Star Wars called a space opera.

Jo, The original trilogy is the best!

Space opera instead of soap opera. Has nothing to do with music or singing.

George Lucas was and is considered a film making genius. He took a personal script and created a 'space opera,' set in a galaxy far, far, away, through the creation of Darth Vader to the death of the Emperor, and the defeat of the evil Galatic Empire. George had in his mind mapping out the entire cycle of Star Wars.

Kinda looked familiar.

I have been given two hours of lives so now I feel obliged to carry on playing or lose them but had enough now .

George Lucas deserves to be exceedingly rich!

Fossil5465, Couldn’t agree more. What the heck is a space opera?

Likewise Fossil5465, it could be though? Minus the singing though!

Fossil5465, right ?!?!

Fossil5465, it is how non fans treat the franchise,

I'll never forget Jabba the Hut, the mafia boss in Tattooine.

the only films I have ever heard referred to Tommy and Jesus Christ Superstar rock operas and Hair was some kind of rock opera I believe but not star wars

Fossil5465, Ditto, no singing at all

HipsterPixie12592, He will remain exceedingly rich as when he sold Star Wars to Disney he retained the merchandising rights .
