  • Welcome to Tunisia Star Wars fans! In this vlog, we visit the desert outside of Tozeur to one of the most famous Star Wars film sets, Mos Espa. This is where George Lucas and crew came to film Star Wars, the setting of planet Tatooine.
    Mos Espa is in the desert, accessible by 4x4 across sand dunes and rock formations. Finally, we reach the setting of the spaceport from Star Wars: Episode I "The Phantom Menace" and Star Wars: Episode II "Attack of the Clones".
    May the force be with you!

    Quite incredible they filmed in the 'blue milk' hovel in 1976 with Luke then filmed another scene in the same hovel for AOTC in 2001 with his father Anakin.

    I wonder where they did Mos Eisley back in the 70's
    This one was only used for the prequels, hence why its mostly still there.

    • @karimabidi8312
      @karimabidi8312 6 месяцев назад

      Yes and no. They build some sets for the OT and took them with them to the US after finishing. For the prequels they built them again and left them there. Also there are many real ancient houses that were used for star wars, kenobis house in a new hope for example is a fisherman house in the dessert

    I was 9 years old when I saw A New Hope in the theater (1977). I have a lot of memories related to that film. As Christmas '77 rolled around there were so many toy commercials promoting their Star Wars' products; it was insane. One of the gifts I recieved that Christmas were the Star Wars sheets and pillow cases. Sounds corny but I wish that I still had them.
