Samuel Jackson to team up with George?
-- Posted by Tamer on Wednesday, August 20 2008
It seems George Lucas has sent a movie script called "Red Tails" to Samuel to see if he would like to direct. This is a WWII film about the Tuskegee Airmen that evidently George has been wanting to do for years. While it seems Jackson is reluctant to give up acting for now, he sure didn't rule it out either. Read about the full story here.

The Clone Wars hits EE
-- Posted by Tamer on Tuesday, August 19 2008
Take a look at this great looking Art FX statue entertainment earth has up for preorder. This set of 3 pieces contain the following (subject to change): 1x Anakin Skyywalker, 1x Ahsoka Tano, and 1x Obi-Wan Kenobi. Yoda is completed by asembling the pieces you get from each of the three statues. Ahsoka includes Jabba the Hut's young son Rotta in a backpack, which also can be worn by Anakin. EE also sent me an email about a new policy:
If you find a lower price on any item you buy from us, let us know. We'll be happy to refund 100% of the difference!

What did you think?

The official reviews are in and many were not that positive. Should this have been a TV release only? Should this have been a "live action" movie using real actors and sets? Being that we have lived our lives "immersed" in the Star Wars Universe, perhaps our review is a better one. Please take a moment and share your thoughts on this new movie in our forums.

Need some Star Wars before you go see the movie?
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, August 15 2008
I am all wired up getting ready to go see the new movie and just found out that G4 TV is having a good bit of Star Wars material on today. From a great X-Play show on the making of the Force Unleashed including the artwork and a wild "cameo" appearance by Morgan Webb to a special on Star Wars Celebration Japan it is a good watch! Make sure you have cookies enabled for that last link or you may just sit there and see the same screen over and over and over. Hopefully this can keep you occupied till you hit the theatre tonight.

Can't wait till tomorrow?

I just happened to see a copy of the new TV Guide that was just full of new Clone Wars movie information. I decided to check out their info on the web and was not disappointed. From an exclusive cd offer to the new movie trailers you will not be disappointed if you take a peek. I might have to check out that cd offer myself!
