Star Wars site to inform all you fans out there. Actually, that has been just over four years ago now. And despite the fact the counter started in 2001, the site went up in March 2000, it has indeed been five years. First of all, let me apoligize for all the ads at the top which you had to scroll through. Without LinkExchange few people would find the site, and Tripod tosses in that other one. Lastly the ONE campaign is something I recently added for a good reason. Check it out and you'll see why. Now that all the movies are out, there's not much news to report so I am planning a massive site overhaul and redesign in the near future. Check out the ONE campaign banner above. It's a great cause and a higly recommend you check it out. Look for the "New" animated symbol to find what has been "recently" updated. Don't forget about the rest of the site though! There's still plenty of great info to look at. Anyway, I'll keep you posted. Thanks, and may the Force be with you!

Episode III info

Even though there me be no official title yet, Episode III is surely on the mind of any true Star Wars fan. While the title may still be in the shadows, there is definitely some speculation that can take place to provide a fairly accurate, if temporary, storyline. There is lots of information out there, some of which is presented below. George Lucas has said that Episode III will "be the darkest of all the movies." However, the one thing I can say for sure is that if the current progression of the "pre-trilogy" is a reliable indication of quality, the third film should easily be the best of these three.

First off let me say that all of the information on this page is purely speculation, but educated speculation. The above picture is not official (but nifty nonetheless), neither is the title. I personally believe that the title "The Fall of the Jedi" would be far too repetetive considering Episode VI is the "Return of the Jedi." There is a rumor circulating that the name of the Episode might possibly be "Rise of the Empire." That said please enjoy these little tidbits i have pulled out of my....brain. Anyway, these are really not spoilers because almost every Star Wars fan already knows what will happen in Episode III. Anakin becomes Vader killing all the Jedi knights, save for Obi-Wan Kenobi of course. Well, here's some other info you may find interesting....

Ok, although Episode III is only just being written now, there are a few plot points we can expect or hope to see.

Alright, let's get the big one out of the way. The "chosen one" aka, Anakin Skywalker becomes Darth Vader. All fans are eager to see the battle between Obi-Wan and Anakin that causes Anakin to recieve his injuries. All I know right now is that it occurs over some sort of lava pit or something. After the tragic accident, Anakin is forced to wear his breathing apparatus and Darth Vader garb.

Speaking of Obi-Wan, Rick McCallum (one of the producers I believe) has stated that fans will be "ecstatic" with Obi-Wan's role in Episode III. He will be escorting Padme Amidala and Leia to Alderaan and looking over Luke as a baby on Tatooine.

Alderaan should also be an interesting part of Episode III. This powerful planet represented by Bail Organa during the Clone Wars may be the site of the last battle of the Clone Wars. George Lucas has rumored an exciting underwater battle may be part of Episode III, and Alderaan surely has some water on it. One thing is certain, Padme and Obi-Wan will visit this planet sometime during Episode III.

Padme's future is uncertain. She is the mother of Anakin's children Luke and Leia, but will she give birth in Epsidode III? Will she die in Episode III? No one can really be sure at this point, but I think she probably dies considering she never shows up in Episode IV, but I could be wrong. In Episode VI, Leia tells Luke she remembers her mother as " very beautiful, kind,....but sad." Luke replies: "I have no memory of my mother." Thus, one can conclude that Leia and Padme probably remained on Alderaan, while Luke was taken to Tatooine with Obi-Wan.

Probably, Padme Amidala will be the one who starts the Rebellion. She certainly has the reasons. One of her former most trusted friends, Senator Palpatine, betrays her in his rise to power. Her own husband becomes the most evil being the galaxy has ever seen. It would seem natural for Padme to be the one to initiate the Rebellion, but it could also be Mon Mothma or perhaps Bail Organa.

Of course, for there to be the Rebellion, there must be the Empire. Hopefully we will see the full rise of Palpatine from his Supreme Chancellor position to Emperor. Will his cover as Darth Sidious be revealed? If so, one can only guess who will reveal it. While on the subject of the Dark Side, what about Dooku? Who will kill Lord Tyranus, his cover? Will the Sith hideout be discovered? With Dooku's Confederacy of Systems merge with the Republic to form the Empire? We know that the New Order must rise for Palpatine to take his place as Emperor. Supposedly, the New Order is proposed by Governor Tarkin (who we later meet as Admiral Tarkin in Episode IV) and gives Palpatine more military power than was given to him by the Military Creation Act in Episode II.

Finally, the Jedi purge begins, prompted by the rise of the Dark Side of the Force. I assume the Anakin initiates it, but I'm not sure. Basically, the purge is the elimination of all Jedi.

Well that's about all the organized thoughts I can pull together right now. Here are a few of my own random thoughts and questions....I'm not sure why Padme is bombed at the beginning of Episode II. She was bombed by and associate of Jango Fett who knew about the clone army. Jango was hired by Tyranus (aka Dooku) and Dooku doesn't know about this clone army. He says something like "that is impossible" when the Geonosian says "the Republic has amassed a great army." However, later in the movie, Sidious is pleased that "the war has begun." I guess they would have wanted to bomb Padme since she was coming to vote against the creation of the Army of the Republic which would stop Palpatine from getting all his military power. Perhaps Dooku knew all along about the clones, as Palpatine wanted to steal them for his own purpose, but he was just acting out his part for the Genosian. Anyway, had to get that off my mind, I know Episode III will clear everything up and I can't wait till it comes. Obi-Wan Kenobi

Obi-Wan Kenobi as Luke Skywalker meets him, or under his alias Old Ben. Obi-Wan used to be one of the greatest Jedi Knights in the galaxy. However, after Emperor Palpatine took over and the minions of the Sith, including Kenobi's former apprentice Anakin Skywalker, and began exterminating the Jedi Knights Obi-Wan and Yoda went into hiding. Obi-Wan lived for many years in the Jundland Wastes near the edge of the Dune Sea on the desert planet Tatooine. Many of the inhabitants of the Anchorhead area know who Old Ben is. Most of them consider him to be some crazy old hermit, even though he occasionally warns the town of approaching Sand People or comes to help someone who is lost. In reality, Obi-Wan Kenobi was once a general in the Clone Wars fighting alongside such heroes as Bail Antilles of Alderaan. When Obi-Wan's apprentice Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker's father, becomes the evil Darth Vader, Obi-Wan knows he has more of a chance protecting young Luke Skywalker than trying to save Anakin from the Dark Side. Kenobi knows that it is too late for Anakin and takes it so far as to tell Luke that his father was killed by Darth Vader when Luke meets with him later in Episode IV. Little does Luke know that it was Obi-Wan that brought Luke to the planet of Tatooine so long ago. Obi-Wan teaches Luke the ways of the Force and tells him of his destiny to become a Jedi Knight. Though Obi-Wan is later killed by Darth Vader on the Death Star, he occasionaly appears to Luke in visions to guide him on his many future quests. Without Obi-Wan, the galaxy may very well never have been saved from the Empire at all.
