He's a very different person in Episode 4 than he is in this novel taking place in the immediate aftermath of Episode 3. Chewbacca flies the remaining Jedi to the Drunk Dancer as Vader reveals himself to Shryne and kills him by fatally wounding him via the dark side of the Force. Freezing acidic rain pelted his helmet, and high winds tore at his black cloak with incredible fury, as if the weather itself was doing its best to kill him along with anything else that attempted to live on the barren world. Shmi threw her body protectively in front of her son, but he pushed his arms out, pressing away from her so he could see what was happening. It's all to teach Vader "fear again, to bring you back to power" and part of that involves Vader being dropped off on Mustafar: "This time you must rebuild yourself. When the three narrowly elude execution—and become the desperate prey in a hunt across space—it's neither clone soldiers , nor the newly deployed stormtroopers , nor even the wrath of the power- hungry Emperor himself they must fear most. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padm Amidala.

    NEW STAR WARS AT MADAME TUSSAUDS UNIQUE INTERACTIVE STAR WARS EXPERIENCE OPENS MAY 2015 A NEW multi-million pound experience opens at Madame Tussauds London in May, with a major new interactive Star Wars attraction. Created in close collaboration with Disney and Lucasfilm, the unique, immersive experience brings to life some of film’s most powerful moments featuring extraordinarily life- like wax figures in authentic walk-in sets. Fans can star alongside their favourite heroes and villains of Star Wars Episodes I-VI, with dynamic special effects and dramatic theming adding to the immersion as they encounter 16 characters in 11 separate sets. The attraction takes the Madame Tussauds experience to a whole new level with an experience that is about much more than the wax figures. Guests will become truly immersed in the films as they step right into Yoda's swamp as Luke Skywalker did in Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back or feel the fiery lava of Mustafar as Anakin turns to the dark side in Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith. Spanning two floors, the experience covers a galaxy of locations from the swamps of Dagobah and Jabba’s Throne Room to the flight deck of the Millennium Falcon. Fans can come face-to-face with sinister Stormtroopers; witness Luke Skywalker as he battles Darth Vader on the Death Star; feel the Force alongside Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn when they take on Darth Maul on Naboo; join the captive Princess Leia and the evil Jabba the Hutt in his Throne Room; and hang out with Han Solo in the cantina before stepping onto the Millennium Falcon with the legendary Wookiee warrior, Chewbacca.

  • Be Mindful of the Future: Information and Knowledge Management in Star Wars Tie-In Fiction
    Volume 13 Spring 2017 djim.management.dal.ca | Be mindful of the future: information and knowledge management in Star Wars tie-in fiction Diana Castillo School of Information Management, Dalhousie University Abstract In the last fifty years, media franchises have been using tie-in fiction to expand their universes and tell stories outside the main source material. This paper examines how information management is used specifically in Star Wars tie-in fiction and its recent transition to using knowledge management. To start, this paper looks at the history of tie-in fiction from its roots in the 1960s to the modern day, before transitioning to the role of brand managers and editors as information managers. Then, this paper documents the history of Star Wars tie-in fiction and how information management strategies were implemented through 2014 and how it impacted the franchise’s internal continuity. Finally, this paper examines the recent move towards a unified canon and how this shift towards knowledge management has impacted storytelling. This paper concludes that while it is too early to evaluate its results, Star Wars was uniquely situated among franchises to move towards knowledge management through its prior information management efforts. Introduction universes and tell stories they may not be able to tell otherwise. Creating a well-run line In today’s entertainment environment, of tie-in fiction requires coordination between popular franchises are rarely limited to one authors, publishing houses, and the licensing type of media. They license their products company through information management. across various different formats to engage In the context of this paper, information fans and expand their footprint in popular management is defined as working with culture as much as possible.

    STAR WARS – EPISODE VI : “REVENGE OF THE JEDI ” Written by GEORGE LUCAS [REVISED] ROUGH DRAFT [June 12] © 1981 Lucasfilm Ltd. All Rights Reserved A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… 1. SPACE The boundless heavens serve as a backdrop for the MAIN TITLE. A ROLL-UP crawls into infinity. The Rebellion is doomed. Spies loyal to the Old Republic have reported several new armored space stations under construction by the Empire. A desperate plan to attack the Dreaded Imperial capitol of Had Abbadon and destroy the Death Stars before they are completed has been put into effect. Rebel commandos, led by Princess Leia, have made their way into the very heart of the Galactic Empire: as the first step toward the final battle for freedom…. Pan down to reveal the planet HAD ABBADON, capitol of the Galactic Empire. The gray planet’s surface is completely covered with cities and is shrouded in a sickly brown haze. Orbiting the polluted planet is a small, green, moon, a sparkling contrast to the foreboding sphere beyond. A large IMPERIAL TRANSPORT glides into frame. WE follow it, as it rockets toward the Imperial capitol. Four small TIE FIGHTERS escort the larger craft. The web-like structures of two Death Stars under construction loom in the distance as the transport approaches. Resting to one side of the half completed space station is Darth Vader’s super STAR DESTROYER and several ships of the Imperial fleet. One of the TIE Fighters escorting the Imperial transport begins to wobble and drops back with its engine sputtering.

  • Star Wars Day 4Th May
    Star Wars Day 4th May In a Galaxy Far, Far Away…… May the fourth has become Star Wars Day for its close resemblance to the catch phrase, “May the force be with you”. Regardless of whether you are a fan or not, the Star Wars phenomenon has had a huge impact on modern life. It has introduced a number of sayings and spin off/ copies of the movie. Whilst it may seem silly to celebrate such a day, it is one of the happiest days of the year. It began as an in joke that most people who had seen Star Wars was in on and it became a day where people joined together in Star Wars silliness regardless of their background. Star Wars was an epic movie that was written and directed by George Lucas and premiered in 1977. It became a worldwide smash hit. Audiences had seen nothing like it before, sat in the theatre watching the enormous words scroll up the screen at the beginning of the movie, then the special effects which today seem so basic and yet, back then, were just fantastic! It took us all to a fantasy place we had never been before. Characters such as Luke Skywalker, Hans Solo, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, C3P0, R2D2, Darth Vader, Yoda and Obi – Wan Kenobi. Today, 40+ years later there are still movies in franchise being made watched. Merchandise is sort after and some things are worth thousands of dollars to collectors. A lightsabre of Luke Skywalkers sold for over $172,000 and a camera used by George Lucas sold for $625,000.
