Star Wars Is Everywhere: Episode XXXV

Posted By Mike on April 4, 2011

Star Wars is Everywhere returns with quite the variety of items today...






George Lucas, along with James Cameron and Jeffrey Katzenberg, was on hand at last week's CinemaCon in Los Vegas, where the Hollywood heavyweights promoted future theater attendance along with the profitability of 3-D films. Their theme certainly makes sense considering they were speaking to a room of theater owners.

Here are a couple quotes from the Maker via LATimes.com, but make sure to click here for the full read.

On going to the movies...
"What you bring to the table is a great venue," Lucas told an enthusiastic group of theater owners Wednesday in Las Vegas. "Movie theaters represent a social art form you can't get on an iPhone and you can't get on the TV.... Man is a social animal ? we want to enjoy things together. And that's what a theater is."

On the 3-D revolution...
"I totally believe that 3-D will eventually take over, just like color did," Lucas said.

(Thanks Vehder!)




Forging ahead, we have a reader submission from our friend Shane (Jade Jedi)...

"Just leting you know if you don't already, about Jacob French, a member of the 501st Terror Australis Garrison and his plan to walk 5000km (3107mi approx) from Perth, Western Australia - Sydney, New South Wales in modified Stormtrooper armour for the Starlight Foundation in July of this year.

If fans want to learn more you can check out his facebook page www.facebook.com/troopertrek , twiter page http://twitter.com/troopertrek or donate at www.everydayhero.com.au/troopertrek
and if you want to get an idea of where he'll be traveling check here: http://goo.gl/maps/uhbQ this is not the exact route but will give people an idea of where he'll be going."


Thanks Shane and good luck to Jason!




The Clone Wars got a little love at CNN.com with them proclaiming that our favorite show was going "full-on Wookiee" for the Season 3 finale.
(Thanks Eric!)




LoyolaPhoenix.com invites us to get to know the Windy City Jedi...

?You cannot admit that when you first pick up a lightsaber, that you don?t feel like a 12-year old kid,? said Jeremy Elkins, a student at Harper College and founder of Windy City Jedi, a 10-member group of Star Wars enthusiasts who gather weekly to clash sabers.

The Windy City Jedi comprise the Chicago chapter of SaberWars, a growing international conglomeration designed to let their members? passion for Star Wars come to life in a very real way. Their goal is to create their own characters within the Star Wars universe and tell their story through the drama of a lightsaber fight. Only three years ago, SaberWars was virtually unknown, starting out as the brainchild of a handful of fans."

Jeremy Bulloch (OT Boba Fett), the Rebel Legion, Mandolorian Mercs and R2 builders brought a healthy Star Wars presence to Kansas City's Planet Comicon over the March 25 and 26 weekend. Read about the fun over at KansasCity.com.




The Scarborogh Evening News reports on a couple troopers who did a little patroling for an event in the UK that promoted the launch of LEGO SWIII: TCW for the new Nintendo 3DS gaming system and also raised some money for Children?s Hospices UK.




BusinessInsider.com says that if you're about to launch a start-up company, then you should look no further than the Star Wars saga for advice.
(Thanks Eric!)




All Things Digital takes us for a video tour inside the Lucasfilm Data Center. While the video is below, make sure to also check out the accompanying article here.






Are you old enough to remember the Star Wars games of the old Atari 2600? If yes, visit InfoBarrel.com for a trip down memory lane. If no, first read about the Atari 2600 at Wikipedia. Then make comments about how bad those of us that do remember the games must have had it back in the day in regards to video games. Then proceed to check out the InfoBarrel.com article. And then go back to your interwebs, stylish shoes, faux-hawks, and songs about going to the bus stop on Fridays.
(Thanks Joe!)

While we've seen numerous write-ups on this subject before, io9.com sought expert advice while putting together their article titled "How can you tell if your kid is old enough to watch Empire Strikes Back, and other dark classics?"
