Geek Update.


So, what's new in Star Wars Land? Well, for one, Lucas has finally broken down and decided to release the original trilogy in it's original form, much to the joy of those fanboys who feel that the special editions and the prequels have somehow stolen their childhood or something. I, for one, actually like the special editions. (Although it's cool to see Han shoot first.)

Some other news from Rick McCallum:

New Star Wars Animated Television Series
-Animated series will be released first, before live action show.
-Not the same style as past Clone Wars Cartoon

Live Action Television Series
-Shooting in Australia
-To be more dramatic, intense, darker, heavy duty
-May not go to television, mentions iPod, future "home" unknown
-Writing to start end of this year
-Starts shooting end of next year

Star Wars 3D
-The entire Star Wars saga re-released on the big screen in 3D.

Woohoo.
