If you are an old Star Wars fan
like me this video will be a step back in time. Being Christmas is right around
the corner, remember a time when you were a kid and all you wanted for Christmas
was Star Wars toys. Today's new video clip takes you back to Christmas 1979. It
gives me chills to see some of these presents being opened, and what I felt like
as a kid when I received something Star Wars. I wish we had a video camera back
then. Enjoy!

Today's new video clip in the Movies Section is the Fan Film entitled
The Dark Lord. This fan
film was released November 25, 2006 and runs at 125 minutes.
"The Dark Lord" takes place after Episode VI. See well know characters like
Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Han Solo along with new characters like John
BingBing. "The Dark Lord" is no usual fan film. All the main actors are kids.
Don't let that fact fool you. There are some really great shots and effects in
this film. This is the English version of the film and includes subtitles.

Wishful Drinking
On HBO |
Carrie Fisher’s hit stage
production of the intoxicating autobiographical tale of her life, comes to HBO
as a feature-length documentary. Debuting SUNDAY, DEC. 12 (9:00-10:30 p.m.
ET/PT), the special combines archival footage with her one-woman stage
performance, which was taped in June before a live audience.
In WISHFUL
DRINKING, Fisher details her complicated yet eclectic extended family tree in
Hollywood Inbreeding 101, employing a blackboard and wooden pointer. Her father
Eddie Fisher’s very public affair with Elizabeth Taylor ended what had been
perceived and celebrated as a “storybook marriage,” and she and her brother Todd
later watched both her mother’s and father’s “once white-hot bright star of
celebrity slowly dim, cool and fade.” In 1973, at her mother’s urging, the
17-year-old Fisher enrolled at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London;
two years later, her life changed forever when she donned a white dress as
Princess Leia in George Lucas’ “Star Wars.”
The film debuts on SUNDAY,
DECEMBER 12 (9:00 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO.
