Yeah, dunno. Ridiculous that I did. Especially after the whole BTTF debacle the other day. Clearly, I (and many other people here) know better than the internet on a number of issues.

I will never get used to American's desire to whoop and shout 'YEAAAHHHHHHH!' like dribbling idiots at the most mundane things. Jon

I think it's endearing and far nicer than the reaction (or lack thereof) from Brits. But I guess it's a preference thing. I won't be looking at any of these links though. Will just buy the BD when it comes out.

George Lucas sues gaming accessory firmGeorge Lucas, the creator of Star Wars, is suing Jedi Mind Inc., a gaming peripheral company which is set to release a wireless gaming headset that allows players to control games with their minds - according to the company that is. Lucas has filed a $5 million trademark lawsuit against Jedi Mind Inc. Currently the peripheral company is offering three other products: Master Mind, Jedi Mouse and the oddly named product called 'Think Tac Toe.' LucasFilm originally sent a cease-and-desist letter to Jedi Mind in May 2009 and was assured the the offending brand would be 'phased' out of the company. According to Jedi Mind Inc. the headset reads the players brainwaves on a conscious and non-conscious level. These brainwaves are then interpreted to allow players direct control over their game. Haden Blackman, the writer and producer of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed recently resigned from his position at LucasArts after 13 years. http://www.computerandvideogames.com/ar ... ?id=261498...

Here's an on-set shot of Carrie Fisher in her iconic "bikini Leia" mode, along with her stunt double, catching some rays during the filming of Return of the Jedi

That BTS pic above is the one I sold on eBay for about £24 after Total Film gave it away as part of a glossy photo set - there was also Obi Wan with the Droids, one of the ships etc

Looking at the colour of her stomach, I think that stunt double might have regretted doing quite so much sunbathing.

No that is the blood of a bounty hunter that got a bit too frisky off set.

Far as I can tell, Sandi Gross (the stunt double) never cashed in and didn't do much work after SW either
