    I realise the world moves on and things change, but it's a bit sad to read that the original home of ILM and THX is due to be shut down as a studio space and converted into industrial warehousing - that place really was where the magic happened! :(

    The place with the Yoda statue? I was there in 2015, I guess. They were located there since when? 1971 or 2005?

    The Yoda statue is at the current San Francisco campus in Presidio which they moved to in 2005. The site that's closing is the office and site where Lucasfilm and ILM weere founded in 1971 on Kerner Blvd, San Rafael.
