Fans Thank George Lucas for his Work
Posted by: Media coverage highlighting Tyler Hamrick's simple, yet powerful, message to George Lucas at Star Wars Celebration last month — "Thank you." — has inspired a worldwide movement among fans to pay tribute to the creator of the saga. ThankyouGeorge.com was established in April and already thousands of fans have signed the letter of appreciation. Not surprisingly, Tyler Hamrick was among the first to sign the letter thanking George Lucas for his lifelong contributions.Star Wars fans from all over the world can visit ThankyouGeorge.com to sign the official tribute free of charge. In addition to adding their name to the letter, fans are encouraged to write a personal note about what Star Wars has meant to them over the years and upload Star Wars fan pictures to the community gallery. With a goal of one million signatures, a bound copy of the tribute will be presented to Lucas later this year as a heartfelt token of appreciation.
The web site is encouraging fans to count themselves among those who are thanking Lucas by wearing special red "Thank You, George!" logo t-shirts or "Thank the Maker!" buttons (available at the site). "Many fans were there at the beginning 28 years ago and have followed the Star Wars journey through the years with friends and family. This is a unique opportunity for them to mark the event by signing the tribute and wearing a visible symbol of gratitude and appreciation," said Madsen.
