Big Year for Starwars Fans


Just recently the new trailer for Episode III: Return of the Sith was released. I must say the new trailer is pretty impressive. I haven't been terribly impressed by Episode I & II, but by the looks of the trailer it may be finishing off in style! I could tell you all the cool stuff about it (and trust me there is plenty of cool stuff) but that would just spoil it so check it out! Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Trailer


The other big thing to come out this year for Starwar's fans is a film by fans ( I do have to thank Valavien for this link). Star Wars: Revelations is film by Panic Struck Productions due to premier on 16th April.

This is the blurb on the plot.

Seers once shaped the path of the Jedi Order. But their visions grew unreliable and the Jedi came to distrus those with the ability. Seers hid their visions or left the Order forever.

In the wake of the Temple's destruction a power struggle has emerged between Darth Vader, the Dark Lord of the Sith, and Zhanna, the Emperor's Hand. Each seeks to eliminate the last of the Jedi and gain the Emperor's favor.

Caught between them is one women who cannot deny the truth of her visions as all race to posses an ancient Jedi secret.

The acting is not the best (about the same as the first episodes of Star Trek or The Bold and The Beautiful), also not helped by the home video quality of the real life sequences (which were filmed on miniDV cameras). However, the CGI sequences are amazing and would be at home on any theatrical release.

There are no details on releases or whether the film will ever make it out other than at the preview. Even so it is definately worth checking out trailer. Star Wars: Revelations Trailer

To be fair, it was one of the most expensive 3CCD miniDV video cameras at about $4500US...

Not disputing there was a lot of effort put into the filming, just that you can tell the difference.

Also looks the film will be available for download from theforce.net after release.
