Does 1989 Comedy The Burbs Contain Hidden Star Wars Insights (Past, Present, Future)?
7The 1989 Joe Dante directed black comedy The Burbs may be a secret / out of time / backdoor Star Wars nexus or hologram, featuring a cast that shows the looks of prominent actors who would appear in the series (past, present & future). The film's plot shows paranoia in suburban America.
- Your anchor to this theory is the presence of Princess Leia actress Carrie Fisher. I recently thought of The Burbs again after doing a video on Anakin Skywalker / Darth Vader actor Hayden Christensen. In some video I had seen I thought Christensen may resemble Tom Hanks or possibly Robert Picardo. Both of these actors also appear in The Burbs.
- One other item to support this theory are similar visuals in the Tom Hanks 2004 comedy The Ladykillers. Specifically: Scenes in the basements of suburban American homes. There is a big Star Wars Connection with the Ladykillers. The Coen brothers based their screenplay on the 1955 British comedy of the same title. This starred Obi-Wan Kenobi actor Alec Guiness.
I believe it possible that the Burbs may hold further future secrets (2024+) about the future of Star Wars.
