Star Wars: Episode VII Might Be Heavy On the Secrecy After All

by Rebecca Pahle | 12:55 pm, May 19th, 2013

In a recent interview Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy had some interesting things to say about secrecy and Star Wars mainly relating to how fans are an integral part of the franchise and “there are things you’re gonna want to make sure they get to know.” That would seem to be at odds with the modus operandi of director J.J. Abrams, which is basically not telling fans anything.

But Abrams isn’t in control now: Disney is. So will Episode VII be less hush-hush? Not so fast, says producer Bryan Burk.

Kids Make Their Own Teeth-Rotteningly Adorable Trailer For Star Wars: Episode VII [VIDEO]

by Rebecca Pahle | 5:45 pm, May 2nd, 2013

Star Wars Episode 7: Return of the Junior Jedi from Sam K. Hale on Vimeo.

Three elementary school kids, with help from a few adults, made their own trailer for Star Wars: Episode VII. There are puppets and a mini-Sith bully, but don’t worry, the Junior Jedi are keeping everything in line.

I defy even the most jaded-by-the-prequels Star Wars fans to watch this without grinning. Your move, Abrams.

Carrie Fisher Mentions Getting In Shape For Star Wars VII, We Can’t Tell If She’s Joking

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:22 am, April 30th, 2013

“I like being bought by Disney, because they never wanted to buy me before. I’m glad they are doing a new movie because they are sending a trainer to my house so I can get in really good shape. So I’m really eating a lot of sugar in advance, as you can see. By the time I really get down to it I will have eaten everything.” – Carrie Fisher speaking to and audience at the BMO Centre via the Calgary Herald.

A few months ago, Fisher seemingly spilled the beans about her involvement in the next Star Wars trilogy then her publicist spoke up to tell us she was only joking. But George Lucas went on record to say she’d basically been signed so we were extra confused. Disney CEO Bob Iger at least admitted there were “discussions.”

So how should we take this latest statement. Fisher is quite the comedian and obviously she was joking about being bought by Disney but them sending her a trainer seems logical if she’s expected to be physical in her role as Leia in J.J. Abrams’ film. An official announcement would be nice, Disney.

Things We Saw Today: First Thor Poster

by Jill Pantozzi | 5:00 pm, April 19th, 2013

“It’s rare that you have a poster that is just Chris Hemsworth shooting on the set,” said Marvel president of production Kevin Feige. “But he just looks like Thor. We just put in some lightning, and he’s got his hammer and you’re there.” Duh, because Hemsworth IS Thor. (via USA Today)

Questions! Questions That Need Answering

Does Peter Jackson Have A Copy Of The Star Wars: Episode VIII Script?

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:20 am, April 4th, 2013

At first glance you may not see anything in this photo but a desk but if you look closer you might see history in the making. Or an April Fool’s prank. We’re not sure. What you’re looking at is a still from this The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug preview video Peter Jackson posted on April 1. FirstShowing.net pulled a screencap from 4:51 in which you may notice, is a script to Star Wars: Episode VIII. I think we can say one thing for sure, showing it was not a mistake. However, we don’t know if this was meant as a joke (he does have a great prop department at hand) or meant to drive nerds completely out of their minds. What do you think?

Fanmade Poster for Star Wars: Episode VII Makes a Movie With the Original Cast Look Pretty Awesome

by Susana Polo | 12:09 pm, March 26th, 2013

Adam Schickling put together this Star Wars VII poster, and as much as I’d like the new trilogy to focus on a new set of characters and feature the old ones as cameos at most, dang if this poster doesn’t make me feel very nostalgic.
