Well, I was over at the LucasArts site today and noticed that during The Force Unleashed Teaser Trailer, the section at the bottom used to state Spring 2008 and now has been updated to Summer 2008. I went to Amazon to see when the game is now supposed to ship and it states August 26, 2008. Well, I guess you might get to play the game by Christmas this year if it doesn't get delayed anymore.

Star Wars Galaxies-Path to the Force-Episode 246

Be sure to join us next week for the two-hundred and forty-seventh episode of Star Wars Galaxies-Path to the Force. Then join us every week as we continue to follow the adventures of the Wookiee E'nac from the Star Wars Galaxies videogame in the form of Gamics!

Join a patrol squad from the Imperial Urban Army on their final assignment for the day. Not a job for the light hearted, these hardened soldiers put their lives on the line as they clean up the dark streets and dangerous corridors of Davenport Gateway. 

Originally slated to be Troops 2, I.M.P.S. took on a more serious tone. While no longer a specific parody like Troops, the film does have some humor and homage to a variety of other popular films. This fan film has fantastic original music and professional visual effects. You can find this video in the Fan Films section. Enjoy!

"The series will be about brand new characters, a group of people we haven't seen yet, except Boba Fett, who will be an instrumental part of it. The series will also showcase other bounty hunters."

"What happens to an empire. It's a much darker, much more character-based thing. It's not as plot-driven." The show will "look like a feature on a television budget, with all new characters, new environments, new planets, and trying to keep the storyline alive for a lot of people."

"We have two great writers from England, one from Australia, and three from the United States." "...in order to develop the 'bible' for the characters, in other words who they are and where they're going to go, along with some of the story ideas. We're going to try and hash out the first three or four episodes."

Other bits and pieces of information have stated that four Concept Artists have been working on designs for the show. One of which is Erik Tiemens, who worked on Attack of the Clones & Revenge of the Sith. Rick McCallum also states they hope to have the first scripts by February 2008 since a November 2007 meeting was cancelled due to the Writers Guild strike. Lucasfilm is considering making an independent deal with the Writers Guild of America (WGA) that could get their writers back to work before the strike ends. If that happens they hope to be shooting the show by the end of 2008 or early in 2009.

Four new ships have been added: the Rebel Incom X4 Gunship, Imperial YE-4 Assault Gunship, Blacksun AEG-77 Vigo Gunship, and the Naboo N-1 Starfighter. Be sure to read all about it!

Philip: Bryan, congratulations! A lot of our viewers and forum members are pleased with the announcement from Lucasfilm that there is to be a new prop replica company continuing Star Wars products, and that you are involved. Can you tell us a little of how that came about?

Bryan: First, I would like to thank everyone for their kind support and confidence in eFX simply based on the assumptions that I was involved. Larry, Barry and I are very proud that Lucasfilm chose eFX and our network of resources and manufacturers to continue the prop replica category.

As many of you already know, Larry, Barry and I have a deep passion for Star Wars. Hopefully the consumers saw this in the products that we have worked on previously. Only after it was confirmed that MR would not be renewing the license, we put together what we thought was an innovative proposal to Lucasfilm to not only continue on in the same tradition, but, more importantly to build on it.

There were a number of strong, qualified contenders, with the same deep passion for Star Wars, vying for the license. Lucasfilm carefully evaluated each of the different companies and the proposals they submitted. The fact that they ultimately selected a start-up company dedicated to focusing on the needs and desires of the core collectors while enhancing the category with some new innovations and technologies, proves that Lucasfilm had the needs of the fans as their number one priority.

What do you think is the secret to Boba Fett's success? Why is he such a fan favorite?

If you look at the outfit, as an actor you don't have to do much. The true success is all there in the outfit. He captures Han Solo, which is pretty cool, and briefly he answers Darth Vader back! Not many people do that and get away with it. He's on his own. He means well, he's very honest about his job, and he's very good at what he does. To keep the mystique he shouldn't take the helmet off. You see Darth Vader unveiled, but with Fett I feel it would be best if you never see his face. You might hear him, but you never get a good look.

Be sure to read the entire interview!

"I would like to inform you of yet another great interview Fan Force Portugal was able to make. This time, the known writer and screenwriter Drew Karpyshyn talks about his bond with the Star Wars and the Dark Side of the Force."

Be sure to read this great new interview!
