Anyhow time for my *annual* star wars round-up... Not much happening...
EA's new Star Wars MMOG costs $80M
Unfortunately it's 20 years too late

Star Wars released on Blu-Ray.
But who cares anymore... The first two films were good, but life has moved on...

A film "The people versus George Lucas".
But we've talked this subject matter to death in these forums...

Live Action TV Series looks like it will never happen
I've heard this story once too many times. By this stage if it ever did go to air I couldn't be bothered.

Toy Commercials
Clone Wars TV ads show I mean series still going. Explains the continued presence of shitty plastic toys in toy stores.

Googling around the News there is very little Star Wars happening these days.
The odd episode of Robot Chicken is the only funny thing that still happens.
Lots of web pages like this with alienated fans moving on...

It has been said that all good things must come to an end and those words throughout the ages have always been proven true. The best one can hope for is when something “good” approaches its end, it gets the chance to go out in a blaze of glory. Sometimes things work out that way. Often something “good” slowly starts to degrade. It leaves the rest of us with no other recourse other than to stand around its proverbial death bed and watch its flame finally extinguish as nothing but a shell of its former self.
As a life long Star Wars fanatic I had to face the facts and finally say the words. STAR WARS IS DEAD, AND MY OBSESSION HAS DIED WITH IT.

My this forum is so dead. Well forums everywhere are dead. We're all too busy trying to make 50,000 friends on Facebook.
Kudos to Chef-Elf for keeping this site open anyway. I'm interested to see how long it goes...
Whatever happened to forum member Bond? We miss you... Sorry whoever that guy was threw a banana-attack at you. He tied to blame your exuberant posts as the cause for Star Wars falling popularity, but I think now George's prequel train wreck may have had more to do with it. Too bad Bond. When you left, it started to go downhill. I could keep going as long as someone said 'HEY! GREAT POST!'
See you all next year! Assumes Chef Elf doesn't send us to the big VHS cabinet in the sky.
Hey Inception was pretty cool though. Far cooler than anything George has done for the last thirty years. Here is an idea. Watch new things?
Finis.
