When people talk about blockbuster movies, inevitably Star Wars comes up as one of the most memorable cinematic slam dunks. Now, thanks to filmmaker George Lucas's interests, fans can see the history of blockbusters (dating back to silent films) and what made circumstances perfect for a cinematic hit to happen in the first place in one impressive film history book.

George Lucas's Blockbusting, edited by Lucy Autrey Wilson and Alex Ben Block, is a comprehensive look at 300 of the most financially and/or critically successful motion pictures of all time -- many made despite seemingly insurmountable economic, cultural, and political challenges -- set against the prevailing production, distribution, exhibition, marketing, and technology trends of each decade in movie business history.

StarWars.com talked with Blockbusting editor Lucy Autrey Wilson about the new book and why it's crucial to look at the influences inside and out that turned films into blockbusters.
