SilverWook would you kindly wipe my account off your site? I don’t want any association here anymore. Politics have officially infultrated Star Wars and now the franchise is dead to me. They don’t want my white male nerd input and I don’t blame them.

If you’re going to throw a fit because you can’t take over a single thread, no problem. All you had to do was restrict your arguments to threads where the debate is open and welcome, or create your own.

I’ve locked your account to prevent further spamming of this thread.

Thank you Jay

that would be ideal. Sadly , I think he might be met with the same behavior . And at the 10th anniversary Star Wars convention , Gene Roddenberry attended and shook George’s hand and George told him of how he used to stop and watch Star Trek re runs everyday while writing the scripts for Star Wars .It was documented in Starlog magazine

Ugh, why do they put politics in my space Nazi movie.

But seriously this looks cool. I wonder if there are Official guidelines for fanfilms to follow in order to stay legal. Calling something “A Star Wars Story” would likely run afowl of those rules.

lol , and regardless of running ducks ,I think it looks cool too . I am also glad to see it being made and think it is an important project . now THIS is standing up !

It’s probably worth watching ‘Brick’ before viewing the videos below…

Star Wars <strong>News</strong> - articles that may not have enough interest for their own threads...
Time

yeah , I am hoping the Star Wars content they get around to streaming will have a blu ray release , personally , I think the streaming model is going to implode eventually , I mean , I already pay for cable , netflix and an internet connection and can’t afford any more . It seems like every big studio is starting up these streaming services now .

Agree about people being in the way. During rush hour it’s inevitable but there are the idiots constantly changing lanes and speeding up on top of people as if they are going to get to their destination much faster when they see traffic is jammed up to the horizon. In actuality they slow down everyone including their like-minded idiots.

and when I pull up next to those idiots , especially at traffic lights , I just turn my head towards them and flash them a big smile and laugh at them because they did not get there any faster than I did

Clone Wars Movie Series - Episodes (Seasons) I to V released...
Time

I just finished watching the vimeo version and it was fantastic ! It felt very much like a theatrical Star Wars movie . I watched the whole clone wars series as it originally was posted on the official site and this was one of my favorite arcs as well as the lost missions which got me to get a netflix subscription . I also recall , that the first few episodes introducing Savage Opress were edited together for a limited theatrical release
http://www.unboundworlds.com/2010/11/new-star-wars-clone-wars-villain-to-be-unveiled-savage-opress/ it was not in my town so this is the next best thing , probably even better . And this edit is VERY timely .
