2007: Sith! Clones! Sex! Death! Cake!

Star Wars Addiction’s Top 10 Star Wars events of 2007. I’m not quite sure I agree with the ordering: No way can I buy Death Star being as high as it is when no one I know actually read it. (Seriously, we threw a chat and no one came!) but it’s an interesting look back at the year.

Perhaps we need a CJ version? Ponder on this I will…

Robot Chicken gets recognition

The best Star Wars animated special of the year got three Annie Award nods: Animated Television Production, Directing, and Character Animation. (Okay, the last one not necessarily for the SW special, but still.) Whoo!

Other honorees include Futurama: Bender’s Big Score (Best Home Entertainment Production,) Kim Possible (up against RC for Best Television Production) and a landslide of noms for Pixar’s Ratatouille. Another familiar name is Doug Chiang, up for Production Design in an Animated Feature Production for his work on Beowulf.

It seems that a Star Wars fan was featured on last night’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. There’s a short clip currently leading on ABC’s site. It looks like LFL had some involvement, so perhaps clips and pictures will show up on starwars.com today…

Friday morning reading list

Slashfilm came across a fan-made poster that spans the entire saga. I’m usually not a huge fan of the collage aesthetic, but I gotta admit this one is pretty nifty.
