From Cinelinx:
With the news that Disney will be continuing the Star Wars saga currently causing fans to dance in the streets, this is an appropriate time to take a nostalgic look at the humble origins of this fairly low-budget sci-fi flick that George Lucas wrote and directed 35 years ago and the many changes he was forced to make while trying to get the whole trilogy done. Some of the alterations he made may surprise you.
Testament The Story of Moses Review: The series depicts Moses' journey from an outcast and murderer to a prophet and liberator of the Hebrews. It interweaves docudrama and interviews, to present a more humanly image of the prophet.
Rest In Peace Review: A man in debt disappears. Years later, he considers reconnecting with his family, but his previous life takes him by surprise.
Nerd Reactor writes that a new international post has revealed the return of a fan-favorite Toho monster.
So do I get to be king of the nerds, because I knew all of this stuff already?
"Seven Things You (Probably) Never Knew About Star Wars"
Obviously somebody knew.
its a good thing most of the draft storylines were changed it would be a lot diffrent if yoda wasnt a jedi master and killing han solo or lando wont make episode 6 a happy ending.
Jeez, a lot of people didn't want to stay on for the project.
Hmm, intriguing...
I wonder if Disney's Star Wars movies will pull anything from these details or be completely different continuations...
