    StarDust

    This is not a regular fairy tale movie, I mean its got the regular Kings & Witches and Magic stuff but the theme is totally different and with some humour has also built in the cast/ story. I personally liked it and my wife liked it moreso.

    The passage from this world to the fantasy kingdom of Stormhold is through a breech in a wall by an English village.

    In the 1800s, a boy becomes a man when he ventures through the breech to prove his love for the village beauty by finding a fallen star. The star is no lump of rock, but a maiden Yvaine, and Tristan the youth, is not the only one searching for her: three witches, led by Lamia, want her heart to make them young.

    The sons of the dead king of Stormhold also want her because she possesses a ruby that will give one of them title to the throne. Assisting Tristan are his mother, the victim of a spell, and a transvestite pirate of the skies.

    A must to watch, specially if you have kids at home. :T

    I rented this in HD last week and quite enjoyed it. I will admit to a "celebrity-crush" for Claire Danes (I'll watch just about anything she's in, even if it's something I'd otherwise avoid) but she was far from the only enjoyable aspect of the movie. I second the "kids at home" comment, but would recommend 8 years old, on average, and up.

      Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
      by impala454
      Ok, I know this is a game, but I just finished it the other day on the easy level and must say, WOW this would be a great movie. It could really fill in the rest of the story and be the perfect Star Wars Episode 3.5. It provides (IMHO) essential information about how the Rebellion initially formed...

      Maybe, I had lower expectations than a lot of people. Maybe a lot of people had expected George to produce their personal Star Wars fantasy - I don't know. I do know that my reactions were much more positive and

      Lucas explains Star Wars to Spielberg
      by oldbob
      In 1975 I was working on a film in Alabama being directed by a young Steven Spielberg. It was a difficult story to get on film because in those days if you wanted something in the picture you had to actually figure out a way to photograph it. You couldn't just go into a computer and spit out a cartoon...
