Interesting note. I was reading some trivia on the original Starwars at imdb.com and I read that the ending award ceremony scene was taken directly from Triumph des Willens, the 1935 Nazi propaganda film featuring Adolf Hitler as himself.
Wow all the big players in the nazi party were in that one. You know I think Lucas could have used his imagination and kept that garbage out of the film.
Well I don't see what's wrong with it if he was just using it for a model of imagery to set the setting for a grand ceremony. It's not as if he were promoting Nazism by it.
I dont think he was promoting the Nazi party. I just think he could have gone else where for inspiration.
Never knew this existed, kind of neat though for star wars fans. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
