Reviews
"The best private theater in San Francisco. The Yoda fountain is available to the public for photos"
"The Force is Strong at this location"
"There is only one room of memorabilia plus the Yoda fountain outside but they were great. This is a must see for all Lucas Film fans as there are a lot of genuine props. If you walk from the ILM building towards Palace of Fine Arts there is a view that looks exactly like Naboo. This must have been the creators’ inspiration."
"A must see for any movie buff. Take in the Yoda fountain, but also sneak inside the lobby it’s free and they don’t mind as long as you don’t touch and don’t do video photography!"
"It's very quiet coz the artists have to think. Nice place to learn a bit about how movie effects were made when computers were too slow to render everything."
