Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves ! 

Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:

Diana: Don’t get me wrong, I love a gratuitous shirtless scene, I live for it, I dies for it, but who in the shirtless scene department at Disney said, okay, we need a shirtless scene, we got Oscar Isaac, we got John Boyega and we got Adam Driver and they decided people were dying for those Adam Driver abs. And don’t get me wrong, Adam Driver is oddly handsome, he’s not traditionally handsome but I get why people are into him. Oscar Isaac and John Boyega are unconditionally good looking though and Kylo Ren got the shirtless scene?

Andrew: I’m okay with it because I feel like Oscar Isaac and John Boyega are traditionally handsome but not like superhero abs kind of built and I like Adam Driver’s sexy dad bod.

Diana: Fair enough, but I couldn’t stop laughing because the whole time the scene was happening I was thinking about the SNL sketch where Kylo Ren’s on Undercover Boss and he’s Matt the Radar Technician and he tells everyone, “I hear Kylo Ren’s shredded. I hear Kylo Ren has an eight pack.”

Andrew: It’s like the sketch was real and he’s just walking around the ship with no shirt on going, “See, Kylo Ren does have an eight pack. Kylo Ren is shredded.”

🚨 The FCC plans to kill net neutrality on December 14 🚨

It’s real simple: ISP lobbyists are pushing the FCC to kill net neutrality so phone and cable companies can block apps, slow down websites, and charge fees to control what you see and do online.

Our only chance is congressional pressure and legislative action. But we need grassroots support. Tell your representatives that you support “Title 2” rules and ask for their help protecting a free and open internet.
