So much to talk about

What an unusually busy Friday night we have!

First a reminder...the SW-themed episode of "Family Guy" is THIS Sunday on Fox. I have no idea if Fox is running any football games that day; if so, it could delay the show a bit. Check Your Local Listings.

starwars.com is running an interview with one of the show's writers here. He actually, despite the usual qualifiers, likes the PT:

Here's something I didn't know...they actually considered director David Cronenberg to helm ROTJ. But he wasn't interested:

Having seen some of his films, I don't think there would've been enough money for the buckets o' blood needed for the big battles at the end ;).

Last but not least is Part II of Papa George's interview with T.V. Guide. They're working on the 40th freakin' episode of Clone Wars and they'll wait until they have 50-60 completed to start shopping the show:
