Hey, all. "Moriarty" here. It's been an interesting week of STAR WARS news as casting has become official, spies have settled in, and things begin to leak. Expect the floodgates to open in the next month or so, and not always from sites like ours. It looks like Lucasfilm is being very proactive about their use of the net this time around with The Official Site offering all sorts of exclusive goodies to help hold us over as Lucas works.
For example, I've been getting mail all night long about this image, which I thought was pretty interesting. Is that Hayden Christensen as a Jedi? Is that Ewan McGregor? Hard to tell, but for a first image, this is a winner. It's interesting, dynamic, and sure to inspire massive raging debates in Talk Back. What more do you want?
A laugh, you say? Well, then, why not check out this image,then? Each character has a photo to illustrate their appearances in previous films, and this is the one for Bail Organa, who is, of course, being played by Jimmy Smits the new film.
Anyway... thanks for the heads-up, everybody. And let's hope Lucasfilm continues to be this playful with their site. It makes this whole process so much more fun.
