And Now For Something Totally Different


By now, pretty much everyone is  aware of the tragic news: the future of Star Wars in 3D is uncertain, much like Anakin Skywalker's future in The Phantom Menace. And while that film did see an epic 3D release last year, Episodes II and III have been indefinitely postponed, with no word on the original trilogy whatsoever. Not the best of ways to start the week, to be sure. 

Never fear. The Star Wars Heresies are here for you, brightening your day as swift and as sure as the twin suns of Tatooine. This has been in my brain a long time. It was written well before Christmas, and should have seen the light of day weeks ago. Alas, endless drama and trauma, coupled with dog-sitting in a house with no internet access for ten days, and here we are. But this is as good a day as any to publish it, and better than most.

This is me, writing what I know. A Star Wars web series without an actual series, set in a bookstore. But sit back, read through the episodes, and have a good chuckle.  We all need it after that Disney/Lucasfilm merger mess-up.

  1. I would totally shoot this if I had the resources (my degree is in theatre, and I'm an adaquite director)

  2. That would be cool. Feel free to mention it on Jedi News. The last season would have to take place at a Celebration, complete with cameos from Mark Hamill, Dave Filoni, Ashley Eckstein, James Arnold Taylor, etc.
