    My hope is that, like, once they've run through everybody else in 20 or 22 years, they'll be looking for someone to write the Lobot movie. I wanna know how he's ended up working with Lando and exactly what that apparatus does and how he lost his hair. And, you know, I always root for the bald guy.

    After a few Star Wars Battlefront games, many were wondering why Dice and EA have decided to reboot the franchise instead of just make a new installment. With a new era in Star Wars, it seems kind of obvious, but if you are curious about the reason, a Dice executive explained it to Games Radar.

    Comic Book Resources has an exclusive four page preview of Kanan: The Last Padawan #3 over on their site. This is just one image, head to the link to see more.Kanan number 3Making Star Wars is reporting a very curious rumor of a device from A New Hope reappearing in The Force Awakens. Not the lightsaber which we've seen in the trailer either. It's something similar and equally curious. If true, it's a small spoiler so click the above link to read it.

    And lastly, Making Star Wars also has an article about another link between the trilogies. This one is a much bigger spoiler than the one above, in that it concerns Rey and Han Solo. We can't be sure it's true but,if so, it has some pretty big implications.
