Synergy and Star Wars

What is Synergy?
Synergy is the promotion and sale of a product in all its versions if they are available. 

Film: 
Star Wars is an American epic space opera franchise centred on a film series created by George Lucas. The film series has spawned a media franchise outside the film series called the Expanded Universe including books, television series, computer and video games, and comic books. Star Wars is one of the biggest film franchises and one of the most famous. The box office has been successful even when it reached the 8th one, despite has probably decreased in quality.

Games:


Star Wars has a ridiculous amount of games within their franchise. One of the most well-known is Lego who have also done other films such as Harry Potter. The purpose of the game is to be like the film, so if it wasn't branded by the film I think customers will see it as nothing special as wouldn't be as popular as it is presently. Games are available on all different platforms, Gameboy, Mobile, Nintendo DS, Playstation, Windows PC, Mac, Wii, Xbox360 , iOS... the list is endless.

Attractions:

In Disneyland Paris there is a Star Tour simulator ride, but it closed in 2012. Tokyo Disneyland's Star Tours closed on April 2, 2012, to make way for Star Tours: The Adventures Continue which will open in Spring 2013.

Soundtracks:
The soundtrack of star wars is one of the most famous soundtracks, even if you haven't seen the films you recognise the classic soundtrack. Click Here for Soundtrack It is also worth mentioning many parodies such as the one in Family Guy use the soundtrack when making parody episodes.


Toys:

Star Wars has a infinite range of toys, from collectibles to soft toys to Lego star ships. The range of toys is unbelievable and now that Disney has owned the rights to it, Disney can produce and manufacture tonnes for merchandise and games alike to make even more money from obsessive star war fans.
