Return of the Jedi special edition commentary.

Believe it or not, Lucas is capable of finding both positives and negatives about both the US and the USSR.

Most of the aesthetic of Empire architecture is inspired by brutalist Soviet architecture, and ceremony for the Emperor's arrival was inspired by October Revolution Day military parades.

Thanks for the answer, any links or quotes? Can't find anything online.

If I have the time and motivation when I'm home I'll rip the relevant portion of the commentary and upload.

Thanks, I'd appreciate it! Don't stress out over it though, I'm just a curious rando.
