re: Star Wars

The set is out in the UK today and fans are actively hunting for the easter eggs, but can't find any. They must be very well hidden

It's probably one of those weird combinations where you have to use your remote to type in THX-1138 + George's birthday + the number of times he's screwed fans over with these releases.

They will never find them 'cause Lucas has enhanced the whole concept. They are now to be referred to as "Gungun Eggs" and they require a Midichlorian-count reader and password (hint: it starts with 'N' and ends with 'oooooooooooooooo') in order to find and unlock. Also, the Easter Bunny will be replaced with Jar Jar Binks in 2012 in order to better fit his vision.

re: Star Wars

^ See now you are just making shit up, to make Lucas look like a fool. Everyone knows if Lucas would have part of that it would be called GOOGAN EGGS, and not Gungan.

re: Star Wars

Interesting article about David Prowse saying that Lucasfilm claims that Return of the Jedi hasn't made a profit. Link

Read the article, sounds like it's common. (creative accounting)
