J.J. Abrams just released a short video pitching for a new “Star Wars” Charity. If people donate $10 to the charity, they have an opportunity to be in the new “Star Wars” movie. If that isn’t cool enough, he reveals a new “Star Wars” creature in the video. Here are a few screenshots from the video, along with the video itself.

I know this has made the rounds yesterday but I thought I’d post it here as well. Never did I think for one moment that I would ever see Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher together again in a new “Star Wars” film. Simply amazing! My only fear is that Harrison Ford is finally going to get his “Return of the Jedi” death wish and get Han Solo killed off in this one. Then again, Abrams will probably just give him some of Kahn’s blood and revive him in the sequel. Oh wait, wrong franchise. I get all of those Star Trek Wars mixed up now that the same guy is doing them all.
What can I say about “Star Wars Episode VII?” It seems to be filled full of love triangles and betrayals. And damn those Wookiees. Can’t trust them! Poor Han.

So I dug deep into my vault and found some old vintage “Star Wars” interviews from the early ’80’s. To be more specific, they’re from “The Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi.” These might already be available but I wasn’t going to do a huge search for them. This was taken from old VHS tapes so the quality isn’t great but still watchable.

As any true Star Wars fan knows by now, George Lucas’s first draft of “Star Wars” was radically different than what we eventually saw on screen. And I mean radically different! I think it’s the perfect example of why you don’t shoot your first draft and serves as a lesson to all writers that the real writing begins with the rewrite.
