Rumor: ‘Star Wars’ TV Show To Feature Time Travel? Abrams and Lindelof Slow Clap.

Let me be upfront about this: I don’t believe this rumor. Why am I talking about it? Page hits, idiot! (Well yeah, that, but it’s Star Wars and I’m a sucker for it, despite my bile.)  Want to hear the probably untrue  rumor regarding time travel and The Force Gone Television?

Hit the jump!

George Lucas Retiring From Blockbuster Movies. Going Personal and Experimental. LOL.

I watched The People vs. George Lucas last week, and it was both traumatizing and cathartic. It was mourning with a digital avalanche of people, but it was also like watching footage of your girlfriend or boyfriend getting gang blasted in slow motion on an evening they told you they were going to the gym or something. So when George Lucas flaps his fat gums this week, I’m “I forgive you”, and I’m also “Fuck you, swine.”

Star-Wars-Themed-Van.

Oh Lord the shit I would spend my money on if I had a ridiculous disposable income. I can’t think (at least in this ill-formed moment) of anything more I want than this heinous Star Wars van, and it could be mine. If I had the cheddar.

LucasFilm Registers The Domain ‘Star Wars: Identities’. What Could It Be?!

LucasFilm has registered the domain “Star Wars: Identities”, prompting geeks like me to breath a sigh of relief. You see, creating new aberrations and slights on God  is less painful to me than seeing him meddle with the OT. Still though, what could it be?

Steven Spielberg Thinks ‘Indy IV’ Sucked Too. Blames Lucas.

Indy IV was a giant crap-covered piece of cinematic toast, and it seems that Steven Spielberg was well aware of that. Spielberg was shooting the shit with Empire while promoting Tintin when he owned up to the suckitude and did what most of us geeks do these days: blame our sadness and failure on George Lucas.

Infographic: Behold All The Star Wars Changes In Chronological Order.

Did you think Lucas started smashing the original trilogy into bits starting back with the Special Editions in 1997? You’d be wrong. I knew he had tinkered before, but I never realized the shit began back the year of its actual release.

Hit the jump to check out all the changes.

George Lucas Spoke Out Against Changing Films In 1988. Body Snatched, IMO.

Last George Lucas post of the day. I promise. This one is too delicious to pass up. Earlier this summer, Steven Spielberg said he regretted making changes to E.T. and spoke out against digital changes in general. I said, derpa!, George needs his friend to talk some sense into it. Well it turns out Lucas understood this concept.

Back in 1988.

Video: Lucas Has Added The Vader “Nooo!’ To Return Of The Jedi. F**king Hell.

I first read this news when I was at dinner tonight. I had 32 oz of Sam Adams in me, and it took everything in my power not to flip my steak tips and puke blood onto the table. George Lucas has (purportedly) made two audio changes to the Original Trilogy in the Blu-Ray release.

One of them is adding the Vader ‘Nooo!’ to Jedi.

Hit the jump to hear them.
