When Walt
Disney purchased Lucasfilm it was a shock to many - but perhaps it was destiny?
Back
in 1980 Mark Hamill made his appearance on very popular The
Muppet Show alongside “the stars of Star Wars”. For the grand finale musical number
that includes Luke Skywalker, C-3P0, R2-D2 and a naked-looking Chewbacca
dancing and singing, a medley of star-related songs climax with the signature
Walt Disney song “When You Wish Upon A Star” complete with fireworks under a
Dark Side rendition of the iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle (aka. the Walt Disney
logo). Yep, Muppets & Star Wars characters all singing the Walt Disney theme song…over 30 years ago!
