So I came across this very addictive flash game called “Spot the Difference”. You can win some very cool prizes as well which makes it even better! Check it out here!
This is the biggest damn collection of Star Wars toys and models I have ever seen! Very impressive. I wish I could play with them all.. hehe.
“Rob Foster has almost all the Star Wars figures and models known to mankind, Hutts and Bothans. He and his girlfriend share their home with an overwhelming army of Star Wars collectibles, from vintage 1977 figures to full battalions of the latest Storm Troopers and giant Ultimate Collector LEGO models, in and out of their original boxes, in formation or reenacting movie scenes. Amazing 134-image gallery documenting every figure and angle, plus an exclusive interview with Rob after the jump.
It’s Toy Fair 2008 and Rob Foster is looking for what figures and models to get next. Every year, companies like Hasbro, LEGO or Gentle Giant release new products related to Rob’s favorite toy franchise ever: Star Wars.”

George Lucas plans ‘Star Wars’ TV series…

This is interesting. At first I thought it was talking about the new Clone Wars animated series, but then I realized it’s not. So it looks like we’ll be getting another series besides the Clone Wars. Although there’s not a whole lot of information released on this yet, I am excited that there will be a live action Star Wars series!
“The Force may soon be coming to a television near you. George Lucas is planning a live-action television series spinoff of the “Star Wars” film franchise. Lucas told The Los Angeles Times he has “just begun work” on the series, which will not include the films’ major characters Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader.
“The Skywalkers aren’t in it, and it’s about minor characters,” Lucas told the Times on Tuesday.
Lucas wouldn’t reveal details, but joked that the series would be about “the life of robots.”
Lucas, 63, already has another television series in the works. Lucasfilm Animation has been working for months on the computer-animated “Star Wars: The Clone Wars.”

This is actually pretty well done… If you’re a fan of Cops and a fan of Star Wars then you should enjoy this! I like how it has some hidden references to the movies in it.. very clever.

If you havn’t seen Spaceballs, you need to go out right now and rent it, better yet, buy this movie!! This has got to be one of the funniest parody’s ever created. This is definitely a classic that everyone should see at least once.
With a classic cast including: John Candy, Rick Moranis and Mel Brooks, the budget for Spaceballs was $22,700,000 (estimated). The film grossed $38,119,483 during its run in the United States, taking in $6,600,000 on its opening weekend.
Planet Spaceball, led by President Skroob (Mel Brooks), has foolishly wasted all of its air and, desperate to find more, aims at extorting the peaceful Planet Druidia into giving them all of its air. They devise a plan to kidnap the Druish Princess Vespa, who is about to marry the narcoleptic Prince Valium. Resenting this marriage, Vespa runs off from the altar and escapes into space, where she is attacked by the Spaceballs (commanded by Dark Helmet, played by Rick Moranis).
Vespa’s father, King Roland, hires Captain Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) and his mawg Barf (John Candy) (who are desperate for money to pay back their debts to the Mafioso Pizza the Hutt), to rescue his daughter. They manage to rescue her and escape the Spaceballs, but have to crash-land on a desert planet. There, they meet the sage Yogurt, who introduces Lone Starr to the mysterious power called the The Schwartz. However, the Spaceballs trick Vespa into leaving her hiding place and capture her again. Lone Starr and Barf rescue the Princess, but not before the Spaceballs have succeeded in forcing King Roland to reveal the entry code to Druidia’s atmosphere (which is simply 1-2-3-4-5). Their spaceship Spaceball One transforms into Mega Maid with a vacuum cleaner, which starts to extract the air from Druidia. Lone Starr uses his Schwartz ring to reverse the procedure, defeats Dark Helmet in a duel using lightsaber-like weapons emanating from their Schwartz rings, and causes Mega Maid to self-destruct.
Lone Starr returns the Princess to Druidia and, since his creditor Pizza the Hutt “ate himself to death”, leaves without taking the agreed payment, a million spacebucks, instead taking a much smaller amount of only 248 spacebucks for food, gas and tolls. Shortly afterwards, on finding out that he is a “certified Prince”, he returns just in time to interrupt the marriage and marry Vespa himself.
Her are some of the best parts of the movie.

The official StarWarsblog.com has posted a link to WizardWorld.com who recently posted a blog entry on the top 20 things Star Wars fans have ot look forward to in the future.
Can anyone guess what number 1 is? The Force Unleashed game of course! That’s not a real big surprise. Coming in second place is The Force Unleashed toys! I have to admit that is pretty accurate because The Force Unleashed is the biggest Star Wars thing i’m looking forward to. My second would have to be the animated Clone Wars Series!
