It doesn’t matter what time of year it is. It doesn’t matter how long until the next film opens. Star Wars fever doesn’t have a season. It can hit anyone at any time without warning. Take Bottleneck Gallery for example. It has been almost four months to the day since the release of The Last Jedi, and they’ve come out with four new prints to let everyone know getting excited about this movie is not out of style. Artist Dan Mumford originally created these pieces as lithographs given out at certain screenings during the movies run. They have now become full prints which you can display proudly in your home.
“It is Time for the Jedi to End” depicts Luke watching over Rey’s lightsaber training on Ahch-To.
“Something to Fight For” immortalizes the long-awaited battle between former Stormtrooper and now Resistance hero Finn vs. his former Captain Phasma. While we wish the fight lastest a lot longer, it was still an emotional one.
Much like when a few small X-Wings and the like went up against the might of the Death Star, “The Spark that will Light the Fire” shows the Resistance in their run-down fighters going up against an entire battalion of First Order Walkers. While C-3PO would gladly tell you the odds of winning the battle, the Resistance already had a pretty good idea and went anyway.
Knowing the eventual betrayal by Kylo Ren makes “Darkness Rises and Light to Meet It” all the more ominous. It would give the same feeling if there was a print of Obi-Wan and Anakin meeting for the first time.
All of these prints run for $50 apiece or $175 for the entire set. Variant editions of each print (which you can check out down below) are also on sale for $55 each or $200 for the set. They can be purchased on Bottleneck Gallery’s website here.
So what do you think? Which of these prints is your favorite? What other scenes from the film would you like to see? Let me know on Twitter @donnielederer or sound off in the comments below.
