Another studio closure arrives during an inauspicious April as Disney formally announced plans to close down Lucasarts on Wednesday.

Do you want to test your Jedi movie watching skills? YouTube user Michael McNulty has synced up all six star wars movies in one video allowing you to watch them all in less than two and a half hours. You're going to need to be a Jedi though to understand them all...

The search for a 'Star Wars: Episode 7' director is over. J.J. Abrams - the man who once said he would only be interested in 'Star Wars' as a paying moviegoer - will direct the first film in the new trilogy.

There's been lots of speculation about who would direct 'Star Wars: Episode 7' but so far we haven't heard any rumors regarding the plot of 'Star Wars: Episode 7.' But that may have changed with a new report that may have revealed the top secret plot of the new 'Star Wars' trilogy.

While we wait patiently (ever so patiently...) for a director to finally be named to helm 'Star Wars: Episode 7', we must look elsewhere to feed our 'Star Wars' hunger. George Lucas will certainly do nicely! Ever since the news broke that the man would be on board in an advisory role during the development of 'Episode 7' (and beyond), most of us have been wondering just how connected he will be. T

Take this for what it's worth: Actor Jason Flemyng, longtime Matthew Vaughn collaborator, may have spilled the beans on who's directing 'Star Wars Episode 7' -- that being Vaughn, obviously. In an interview he seems to take for granted that Vaughn has the job before somewhat backtracking. Are the beans spilled?

It's easy to poke fun at George Lucas. He directed the prequel trilogy after all, and refuses to acknowledge the original cuts of the first three 'Star Wars' movies. But when Lucas does good, that's no joke. And today word broke that Lucas will be giving the majority of the money he got for selling Lucasfilm to educational philanthropy.

The force is strong with big spenders. Niue, a Pacific nation northeast of New Zealand has minted Star Wars coins adorned with images of classic characters from the trilogy including Luke Skywalker, Yoda, Darth Vader and Princess Leia.

Darth Vader has announced the assassination of Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Galactic Empire Times is reporting. The spoof appears in a knockoff website of the New York Times and is done amazingly well. Not only did a few intrepid wordsmiths put together the tongue-firmly-in-cheek hard news story, someone with Photoshop skills put Vader in front of a podium lifted from the White House.
