^ A top idea for a quality and helpful project, Rodney-2187.
A single thread, updated regularly, with information for many of the countless and quality documentaries and specials re the Original Trilogy (and Star Wars in general) made over the years will be most useful. š
Ā
Wishing you all the best with this - and sincerely hope other members of the community on here also chip in and helpā¦
Ā
Ā
Ā
Ā
Edit (21st February, 2024) : Well, that sucksā¦
Ā
Rodney had created a quality and easy-to use spreadsheet compiling a wide range of Star Wars documentaries and special features released over the years - with links to where they can be found.
It was a most useful and informative guideā¦ yet unfortunately it appears Rodney2187 has deleted the āGuide to Star Wars Documentaries and Special Featuresā from the original post above (as of February 2024), along with any record of his conversations in this thread, and also edited the thread title to a ā.ā.
Ā
Ā
ā¦there is now an updated Mega link below to the old guide - an MS Office Excel spreadsheet (34kb).
^ All of this is based on an older backup copy of Rodneyās quality Guide.
Iāve updated some of the old / broken / removed contentā¦ with new working links and information (as of 2nd October, 2024)ā¦

The Star Wars Documentaries, Specials, Bonus Materials, Trailers, and moreā¦ category of An Index of Star Wars Preservations may also be of interest for anyone looking for certain documentaries, specials, trailers, and bonus features etc.
The āDocumentariesā section of āAn Index & Help Thread for The Expanded Universeā has a much info & relevant threads too.
benduwan has also compiled a list of useful documentaries and special features + OTā¢com links in the next post below this.
Ā
Ā
Ā
Ā
If you know of any better quality links - or have suggestions for any more documentaries and specials to be added to it - send me a PM and Iāll add them to it.
Or preferably, if anyone wants to take over the running of this projectā¦ just let me knowā¦ and Iāll do my best to help out with a working and up-to-date guide - and try and provide any information or assistance that may be required. š
Ā
This project and info thread over on TSWT forums may also be of interest (a quality suggestion by benduwan - thanks):-
^ for anyone wishing to join the TheStarWarsTrilogyā¢com forums this thread had all the information you will needā¦
TheStarWarsTrilogy.com - and invite codes to it (read the actual thread before posting!) - and look in the 2nd post of the thread.
Ā
Ā
Ā
Ā
(Iām only on here to update the various Index & Help threads around here, chat with some old friends in PMs, help out on a few projectsā¦ and answer any queries / provide some assistance to anyone that asks in PMs - as Iāve always done. Iāve no plans to return and start posting on the OT boards again - other than outside of some rare ācongratulationsā, āmilestoneā & āheads-upā type posts etc.)
