Trinity faces potential legal action due to a questionable Star Wars scene
In an unexpected turn of events, Trinity College in Dublin has announced that it is considering legal action against 'Star Wars' director George Lucas. The allegation stems from a case involving potential similarities between a room in Trinity College and a scene in 'Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones'.
The Long Room in the Old Library building at Trinity College, built between 1712 and 1732, is the specific location whose design is alleged to have been replicated in the movie. This room, a architectural marvel, receives over half a million visits a year and is a proud symbol of the university's rich history.
The college was prompted to take action after an article in their newspaper, the University Record, brought the issue to light. The legal advisors of Trinity College have been instructed to look into the case, but no agreement was made on the use of an image of the Long Room in 'Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones'.
However, it's important to note that there is no evidence or credible information indicating a legal dispute between Trinity College Dublin and George Lucas over similarities between the Long Room in Trinity College and a scene in "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones."
The spokesperson for Lucasfilm has denied any connection between the scene in 'Attack of the Clones' and Trinity College. The search results primarily discuss unrelated topics such as university protests, disciplinary actions, philosophy faculty news, and the history of other figures, without any reference to George Lucas, Trinity College Dublin, or 'Star Wars' legal issues.
Despite the denial, the college has taken the matter seriously and provides an image of the Long Room on their website for viewing. The headquarter of the Jedi Archive in 'Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones' is the subject of the legal consideration, but whether this is just a coincidence or a intentional replication remains to be seen.
This development has certainly sparked intrigue among 'Star Wars' and Trinity College enthusiasts alike, and we will keep you updated on any further developments in this unusual case.
The Long Room in the Old Library building at Trinity College, a hub of rich history and part of movies-and-tv entertainment, has been the subject of a potential legal dispute with George Lucas, the director of 'Star Wars'. This comes after allegations of possible similarities between the Long Room and a scene in 'Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones', with Trinity College pondering legal action.
