Humboldt Redwoods State park was the scenic locale for the Ewok villages of the Star Wars: Return of the Jedi movie filmed in 1982. Many wonder if Yoda himself were not inspired by a lost hippie in the woods. The scenes shot in Humboldt really make the movie.

The Majestic ( VIEW FULL PAGE )
Filmed on location in Ferndale, California this 2001 film highlights actor Jim Carrey in a more serious role aside from his brilliance ion the realm of comedy. This film has a great message about standing up for what we believe in against any kind of oppression or tyranny even if it comes from our own government. This is told using a flavorful twist of identities, which of course is based primarily upon the old French Medieval legend- Return of Martin Guerre, and the growing concern of communism in the late 40's and early 50's.
