Pizza Wars (Parody Poster)

Pizza Wars was a poster created for Showbiz Pizza and Chuck E. Cheese's in 1988.

Production

This poster was one of the few Rock-Afire Explosion parody posters released in 1988. Once Concept Unification began this poster would cease production in 1990. This poster has been re-released by Creative Engineering after Concept Unification after mass fanfare for the Rock-afire Explosion has been ignited in the 2000s.(1)

Design

The poster is a parody of the Star Wars movie poster from 1977.(2) This piece details Duke LaRue as Luke Skywalker, Mitzi Mozzarella as Princess Leia, Billy Bob and Beach Bear as C-3PO and R2-D2. As completely new art was created for the characters, Billy Bob utilizes a stock pose.(3)
