The long-awaited Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Exposition Park is set to open on Sept. 22, officials announced on Wednesday.
More about the museum: The museum will house 35 galleries across 100,000 square feet. The museum’s permanent collection encompasses more than 40,000 works. Officials said the space will house one of the most significant collections of narrative art.
What artists are included? The Lucas Museum’s collection features works by Norman Rockwell, Kadir Nelson, Frida Kahlo, Maxfield Parrish and others. Comic art creators, including Winsor McCay, Frank Frazetta and Chris Ware, will also be featured. The museum also houses models, props, concept art and costumes from museum co-founder George Lucas’s filmmaking career.
Officials said: “This is a museum of the people’s art—the images are illustrations of beliefs we live with every day. For that reason, this art belongs to everyone,” Lucas Museum co-founder Mellody Hobson said in a statement. “Our hope is that as people move through the galleries, they will see themselves, and their humanity, reflected back.”

Steven Spielberg’s Forgotten Sherlock Holmes Movie Is Still the Most Important Sci-Fi Film Ever
Published 2 days ago
Joshua M. Patton is currently a Senior Writer and critic for CBR covering television, movies, and comics. He also reviews books for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Over his 30-year career in journalism his work has appeared on the Huffington Post, New York Post, and in dozens of other outlets in print and online. An award-winning fiction writer and poet, collections of his work are available on Amazon.
Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents:
There are few fictional characters today who even have a chance to endure as long as Sherlock Holmes. The “consulting detective” created by Arthur Conan Doyle in 1887 is so iconic, the character’s unique first name is synonymous with investigation (albeit mostly sarcastically). Just shy of the 100th anniversary of the character, Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment produced Young Sherlock Holmes. As a very young child, this movie was my introduction to the character. However, this nostalgia is not why, I believe, this movie is arguably the most important science fiction film ever produced.
There’s also an argument that Sherlock Holmes is the first modern superhero, given Doyle’s own prolific stories, pop culture name-recognition, and hundreds of adaptations in comics, radio, theater, and film. In fact, Prime Video ordered a Young Sherlock series from Guy Ritchie, based on a series of novels by Andy Lane beginning in 2015. The film version of Young Sherlock Holmes predates those books by 30 years, based on a script written by Chris Columbus after Gremlins and The Goonies, also from Amblin. Barry Levinson, himself still a few years away from Oscar-winning films like Good Morning Vietnam and Bugsy, directed it. The movie is part of that classic Amblin tradition featuring stories about plucky kids getting into fantastic adventures, facing death, and saving the day. I was the perfect age for movies like these, and Young Sherlock Holmes holds up for me because of that connection to my youth. Yet, that’s not why I vividly remember seeing the movie in the theater near my childhood home. While the movie features some traditional, even “hokey” special effects, one impossible scene blew my mind. It also served as a proof-of-concept for the kind of computer-generated visual effects that made everything from the Star Wars prequels to the Marvel Cinematic Universe possible.
The Path to Young Sherlock Holmes Started with Spielberg, George Lucas, and Pixar
The Disney+ documentary series Light & Magic partially tells the story of the Pixar computer, beginning in 1974. Five years later, George Lucas gave the team jobs at Industrial Light & Magic. Early CGI in films like 1982’s Tron would never pass for photorealism. In the documentary, Edwin Catmull said that computers simply lacked the processing power to render such images. This is why ILM offered the first Pixar computer for sale (at $100,000 each), which funded its further development. Lucas, however, had little interest then in animated films, which is what the Pixar team wanted. He sold the company to Steve Jobs, and ILM took that technology and built upon it.
At first, ILM only worked on films made by Lucas or his friends, like Steven Spielberg. It wasn’t until the producer of the Star Trek films, Harve Bennett, came calling that ILM took on contract work. The Wrath of Khan featured the first fully computer-generated sequence in a film, though the images were still far from photoreal. ILM created a computerized simulation showing what the “Genesis device” could do to a planet. Today, these images look positively ancient, but they worked for Star Trek‘s future setting at the time. No one had seen anything like that before. Many fans don’t even realize the two gray control panels on each side of the demonstration’s “screen” are also CGI images.
Lucas yearned for digital filmmaking options for everything from actual filming to special effects to post-production. Save for some artists, like stop-motion “god” Phil Tippett, practical effects reached something of a plateau from the 1980s to the 1990s. The people developing the Pixar computer wanted to make animated movies, but Lucas wanted ILM to continue to develop that technology to blend CGI elements and characters with live-action films. He knew that once digital visual effects technology advanced far enough, there would be no limit but time and money on what a filmmaker could commit to the screen. But one film had to be the first, serving as a test case.

Luke Skywalker's real name is probably George Lucas.

I find George Lucas's philosophy, which distinguishes between pleasure and joy, pretty wise. Pleasure is a self-centered, short-lived emotion that peaks very high, yet the next time you need twice as much to reach the same level, whereas joy may not rise as high, but it can be recalled in memory and stays with you long after. As he points out, if you try to sustain a peak level of pleasure, you're ultimately doomed.
