Jason Swank and Jimmy Mac of RebelForce
Radio have released their latest show! "Last week, we reported on the
incredible Edit Droid laserdisc discovery of long lost footage from Yoda’s death
scene in Return of the Jedi. This week, we dig deep into this material,
including never heard before dialog, with the man who has made it available to
the world, Star Wars collector and fan philanthropist, Charlie Owen. Charlie
talks about how he came into possession of this amazing video and what makes it
so special for fans of The Saga. Plus, we get into the latest Episode VII news,
J.J. Abrams, Lawrence Kasdan, Harrison Ford, and more. We let our imaginations
run wild with speculation about the relationship between Han & Chewie in Ep

Episode VII To
Release On December 18, 2015 |
The Official Star Wars Site
has made it official by announcing the release date for Episode VII.
With pre-production in full-swing, a confirmed release date of December 18,
2015, has been set for Lucasfilm's highly anticipated Star Wars: Episode
VII.
"We're very excited to share the official 2015 release date for Star
Wars: Episode VII, where it will not only anchor the popular holiday
filmgoing season but also ensure our extraordinary filmmaking team has the time
needed to deliver a sensational picture," said Alan Horn, chairman of The Walt
Disney Studios.
Star Wars: Episode VII will be directed by J.J. Abrams (Super
8, Mission: Impossible III, Star Trek) and is being
scripted by Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan (Raiders of the Lost Ark,
The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi). Lucasfilm
president Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Bryan Burk are producing, with
Tommy Harper (Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, Jack Ryan,
Star Trek Into Darkness) and Jason McGatlin (Tintin, War
of the Worlds) serving as executive producers. John Williams is returning
to score Star Wars: Episode VII.
Shooting is scheduled to begin spring 2014 at Pinewood Studios.
It may not be May like we all hoped it would be, but I would rather them take
their time and get it right. At least now we know and the rumors can cease.
Let's hope this is the beginning for more news to start flowing. |
