Wow.
Star Wars Revelations is a fan movie, made without permission or assistance from George Lucas and his merry band. was a better Star Wars movie than the preceding two official movies put together. The technical quality of the movie is excellent, with brilliant special effects. The plot’s a bit opaque, and the actors are clearly not Hollywood megastars. On the other hand, the acting here is no worse than that of The Phantom Menace. C | Net has a pretty good story that features some background on the larger phenom of fan-created works, but for now you should hop over to Panic Struck Productions’ web site and grab the film for yourself. (Better yet, get the torrent).

I’ve always liked Troops! (which I think can be found at http://theforce.net/troops these days), and I think they’re doing a sequel sooner or later. There are a lot of good fan movies out there; since they’re usually making short films, they’re actually pressured into doing a harsher job of editing than the average professional hollywood action movie these days.
A funny bit I ran across earlier today was this:

It’s the trailer for Revenge of the Sith, with some interesting subtitles added. (I may have already said too much. See it cold).
theforce.net has a ton of great fan-produced Star Wars films. They range in quality from crap to awesome, but the amount of work is amazing. Two in particular to watch for: _Bounty Trail_ and _Legacy of the Jedi_. The guy who did Bounty Trail (do the Slave-1 combat scenes look familiar?) ended up getting hired by ILM and worked on the Slave-1/Jedi Starfighter dogfight sequence in Episode 2 (yes, that’s why it looks familiar). Legacy is a different kind of Star Wars film, but it is my absolute favorite.
I’ll have to check those out. At present, Episode III is a sore topic around our house; we told the boys that if it’s rated PG-13, they probably won’t get to see it. This has not been well received.
I’d try to argue you out of it, but The Phantom Menace was so bad I didn’t see Attack of the Clones.
(Well, I tried, once, but they wouldn’t let my bots in with me to make it bearable, so I gave up…)
