Here’s an interesting retrospective of several Star Wars actors and where they are now, or what became of them.
Find out what happened to them at ABC News Photos. Warning: some of the pictures are scary.
Amazing. All things Huttese. Every single line of dialog in the films, in the EU, in the comics, in the video games, even in multimedia CD-ROM guides. I found it, the most thorough, the most exhaustive catalog of Huttese words and phrases ever assembled by man at The Complete Wermo’s Guide to Huttese.
Now I don’t envy the Trekkies, with their harsh Klingon dictionaries and the foreheads. I’ve never been so proud.
The ever wonderful to read Wired magazine has taken time to commemorate the 30th birthday today with a few articles. Oddly enough there is no mention of my other favorite movie, which also opened up around this time in 1977 (the 27th according to the IMDB…. I always thought they opened on the same day).
Anyway, without further delay, here are the links to the Wired coverage:

Enjoy, and remember: You heard about the legend of Jesse James, and John Henry just to mention some names. Well there’s a truck driving legend in the south today, a man called Bandit from Atlanta Gee – Ay. Every gear jammer knows his name, they say he got ice water running in his veins. A foot like lead, and nerves like steel, he’s gonna go to glory riding 18 wheels….
Wait, wrong movie, sorry. May the Force Be With You is so cliche… how about a good “Cut to the left, I’ll take the leader.” (yeah, it’s from Jedi, but I gotta get my Wedge on somehow)
Remember how long it took to get Star Wars on DVD? Looks like we won’t have to wait long for the Saga to upgrade to the next generation of digital media, leaked 32 digit hex keys notwithstanding.
Right now, Amazon.com has product pages up for BOTH the Star Wars trilogies in the Blu-ray Disc format. The first and second trilogy each have their own page, with a current status of “we will e-mail you when this title becomes available”.
