For their new Revenge of the Sith line, Idea Nuova has plenty to offer fans looking to deck out their pads with some far out Star Wars flair. Motion lamps, glitter night lights, butterfly chairs, and bamboo-style curtains are just the beginning of this ultra-hip line of décor.

Defined by fiery reds and oranges, much of the line is themed out on Vader, making buddy pillows, mini lockers, and slumber sacks more like decorator pieces than household wares. There's even a collapsible hamper that looks more like pop art than a bedroom necessity.

Besides the helmet and Jango blasters purchased in Hawaii, Abel worked on the armor for 2 ½ months (often 'till 4AM!). Once again witness the outpourring love from Star Wars fans in New Caledonia, South Pacific.

Star Wars Republic Commando is a squad-based first-person shooter that lets the player explore the elite world of the Star Wars military. Leading a 3-man squad of Republic Commandos, the missions take each player deep behind enemy lines on more than 14 intense and challenging levels through three different campaigns against more than ten brutal enemies. The player will have more than a dozen deadly weapons at their disposal, but none more lethal than the squad.

Lucas was at Stage Eight on Monday with actor Hayden Christensen, who plays Anakin Skywalker, as they filmed the final footage for Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith.

But why wait for a birthday to have a Star Wars celebration? Invite friends over in April for an episode of Clone Wars' second season--or why not screen that shiny new set of Original Trilogy DVDs you've been waiting to show off? Any excuse to have a Star Wars party is a good one, and Hallmark can theme it out for you Sith-style!

And here's one that can't lose--fill one of Hallmark's new saber-wielding Vader piñatas with Star Wars tchotchkes and candies and let guests go at it with a toy lightsaber. Your party will become Jedi legend, guaranteed.

The story picks up five years after the events in the original game. You again start as a slightly amnesiac Jedi who has to puzzle out his past while navigating the complex moral responsibilities presented by the latest threat to the galaxy. I'll omit any summary of the story here since the surprise in discovering what's happening and why is one of the main pleasures of the game. Suffice it to say that you're being hunted down by one group of enemies, while also tracking down a second group who, at least superficially, also seem to be your enemies. A seemingly unimportant incident at the beginning of the game ripples throughout the galaxy and sparks events that could lead to the collapse of the existing political and social order.

Gamers who haven't played the original won't necessarily feel lost here but the new story does build on events and characters from the previous game. Though it's not a requirement by any means, Knights of the Old Republic II will surely mean more to those who have finished the first game, particularly so given the game's frequent mention of the relationship between Revan and Malak. Players of the original game might be disappointed that this game pretty much follows the same structure; the recycling of the "who am I?" angle was a bit of a let down. Given the similarity in the games' openings, I was glad to see there wasn't another surprising revelation waiting for you at the end this time.

But life as a Hollywood actor is more taxing in the friend-making sphere... you work on a film for a few months, move on and work somewhere else for a few months etc etc, but for Samuel L Jackson it's been even harder than that.

The Pulp Fiction star has revealed that whilst filming the latest Star Wars, he hardly made any additions to his address book.

"I know Ewan McGregor and a few of the other names," Breakingnews.ie quotes him as saying.

"But there are some guys covered in tentacles and s**t and I still don't know who they are. Filming Star Wars is weird s**t."

Samuel has also revealed that in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge Of The Sith his character, Mace Windu, experiences a spectacular death.
