Han Solo - Legend!George Lucas has told the Los Angeles Times he just begun work on a “Star Wars” TV series in news that will please the inner-geek in all of us.

Lucas told The Los Angeles Times he has “just begun work” on the series, which will not include the films’ major characters Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader. “The Skywalkers aren’t in it, and it’s about minor characters,” Lucas told the Times on Tuesday. Lucas wouldn’t reveal details, but joked that the series would be about “the life of robots.”

Kevin Smith Has a Boring Ass Life

Posted by UtahSaint on Sunday October 14 @ 7:52 am

Silent Bob - Kevin Smith - aka TubbyIndeed he does, but the tubby one is funny as hell in writing about his boring ass life. His story should serve as inspiration for all of you regular folks who dream of the better life. He has a wife who digs the beard and the belly, a fine CV of movie credits, a list of friends including Tarantino, Mewes, and Garner/Affleck and the chance to hang out at Skywalker ranch on a seemingly regular basis. Thats not the reason for the entry though, I thought I’d share links to one of his programs you’ve not seen “Sucks Less with Kevin Smith” - only availble on MTVu, which, I guess means only available to broke ass students.

Bill Gates Microsoft Chief BorgAccording to the results of last weeks test by the Google Operating System blog, users tried out three unidentified search engines and vote which had the best results. The results came back and 51% of the more than 2,000 people who voted said Google had the best results. That was followed by 35 percent for Live Search and 30 percent for Yahoo. I think many people are surprised Live Search, from Microsoft, came in above Yahoo, but I wasn’t - have you tried Yahoo search recently…. blurgh…

How Dumb are Record Company Execs?

Posted by UtahSaint on Thursday October 11 @ 8:02 am

Capitol Records, 90210Just when we thought record company execs and the RIAA had reached rock bottom, they’ve now prosecuted a single mother and she’s getting nailed to the tune of a $220,000 fine for downloading songs illegally. Don’t get me wrong, what she did was against the law, and she ripped off the artists, but as everyone in the music industry knows, thats what the record companies have been doing to artists such as Prince, Michael Jackson and Haircut 100 for years. Talking of Madonna, it’s interesting to see she’s ditched WB this week and has signed with Live Nation - the concert promoters who are most famous for Live 8. I wonder if this is the start of a big movement…
