| Star Wars Insider #88 | |
The Official Star Wars Site has a sneak peak at the latest Star Wars Insider. The dark side is strong with this one. The next issue of Star Wars Insider celebrates the ultimate revenge of the Sith Lords with an issue devoted to their evil ways. Four separate covers contain the darkness within, stunningly illustrated by ILM artists. Aaron McBride illustrates the Darth Vader and Count Dooku covers, while Christian Alzman provides the art for the Darth Sidious and Darth Maul covers. A feature article explores the evolution of these covers, including an inside look at the development of this amazing art. Also in this issue is "Heritage of the Sith," an ancient tome of Sith lore discovered by author Drew Karpyshyn. Jude Watson visits the Sith crypt world of Korriban in a new short story, "Ghosts of the Sith," with illustrations by Linh Ngo. And find out who's who in on the dark side of Star Wars: Legacy, the new comics series from Dark Horse Comics. Be sure to read the entire article that includes pictures of all four collectible covers! | |

| Sir Steve's Guide Update | |
Well, in our last report it looked like SirStevesGuide.com was going to take a different road. They have, but not like we originally thought. Here is what Steve is saying: "Well, the title says it all… a lot of you may be wondering what happened to “SirSteve” and SirStevesGuide.com over the past month and a half… ACTION Online and SirStevesGuide.com (SSG) went our separate ways. I am now 100% in control of SSG. The separation was amicable and I wish them the best of luck." "The past is the past and I want to look towards the future. The future of Star Wars and SSG… as most know, we are gearing up for a number of things in the Star Wars Universe: 3D movies, Animated TV Series and Live Action TV Series. There will be a lot for us to collect in the near future and SSG is going back to its roots. We want to provide the Star Wars Community the latest and greatest Star Wars news available. There will also be some changes made. Some immediate, some will take a little time. A redesign, new systems (such as the news system now in place), new staff members will join us and a few surprises are all lined up. So please excuse us for a little while during this transition phase but it will be worth it." "Last but not least... I would like thank everyone for their support during the time I was gone. There are too many to list but you know who you are." I think this is great news. I hope SirStevesGuide.com gets back to their previous glory and I look forward to the new design and features they are sure to offer. Best of luck to them! | |

| Cut Scenes Section Update | |
The Phantom Menace Cut Scenes section has finally been updated with a breakdown and pictures of a couple of scenes cut from the film. The new scenes are Obi-Wan Lectured and The Waterfall. I will continue to work on this section to bring you more information instead of just a few pictures like before. You can also access The Waterfall video clip directly in the Movies section if you wish. I have always been fascinated by the scenes that were left out of the movies and I just wanted to share with you these cut scenes from the film. Enjoy!
