Ultimate Envy, Part 4
Friday, June 1st, 2007Star Wars and George Lucas play a heavy role in many young men’s lives. Most of them have movies, toys and an endless arsenal of jargon and quotes to prove their love. Not Johann Peters, co-founder of Longview, Wash.-based custom installation firm Charisma Productions. He took his love to a whole other level.
Lucas, creator of the Star Wars franchise, has a 300-seat home theater at his Skywalker Ranch in California, dubbed “The Stag”.
To pay ultimate homage to one of his childhood heroes, Peters spent $100,000 to build a 16-seat replica of “The Stag”, including some of its best amenities such as a dozen speakers, 12,740 watts of amplification and a JVC DLA Projector.
Peters stuffed more into this 18′W x 30′L room than you could cram in an Imperial trash compactor, and shows it all off on a 150″ screen.
After 8 months of work and numerous squabbles with his business partner, he finally had his long-dreamed of replica and a place to relive his childhood fascination with all things Star Wars.
