A brief rundown of what has been revealed !
22nd July 2003 |
Pablo Hidalgo's onset diary feature from the Official Site's 'Hyperspace' continues to be the best aspect of the subscription service ! Along with tantalising glimpses via the WebCam and tidbits revealed in the crew online chats, they reward the visitor with what the next and final episode holds for us ! |
From a last-minute re-location of a scene to a Coruscant theatre, to an 'open' palace meeting chamber ; from set inversion to visiting known but as-yet-unseen locales ; from ten landing platforms to the use of wind machines ; from friendly camaraderie to clandestine meetings ; from a golden protocol droid to a new alien enemy .... already Episode III is taking shape, and its shape, to be honest, is surprising many people ! |
Meanwhile, long-time forumer, Indy500, has written up a well-argued speculative theory that offers a suggestion as to how George Lucas might close his Prequel Trilogy ... and lead it into the Original. I am in the process of presenting it here at the VE.net, and hope to have that completed for the beginning of august .... |

Fan artwork inspired by the Hyperspace WebCam !
9th July 2003 |
The new 'Hyperspace' WebCam feature has been inspiring our forumers with artwork ! Ben Christensen, Darth Michael, and Jedi Jackson have put mouse to software, and created some great pieces ! Recently, at 17:41:20 on the 30th of june 2003, we had a glimpse of Anakin Skywalker in an Episode III setting ! This single image has brought forth much speculation, as well as artwork. |
|
Ben Christensen has produced this stunning image based on that picture, and we see that this Sith-Lord-to-be is certainly a force to be reckoned with ! |
Other recent news has further information concerning Wookiees, and X-Wing Fighters ! |

Could THIS be a scene in Episode III ?!
1st July 2003 |
|
Back in mid-june, Episode-X revealed spy reports of two familiar spaceships returning to the Star Wars galaxy : what will be known as the rebel blockade runner and the Imperial TIE fighter ! |
In the first truly Official Virtual Edition of an Episode III image, based on production reports, could we be seeing a scene where a Corellian corvette, escorted by protoype TIE fighters, is running a Trade Federation blockade ?! Though the report, and my interpretation, may be wrong, it remains in the spirit of the site originally set up by Roderick Vonhögen back in 1997 ! Click on the image above to see a larger version ! |
Fansite Web Maestro T'Bone emailed me recently to promote his involvement with the fan film 'SIlent But Deadly 2'. You can see more details about it here. |
Oh, and Star Wars Episode III began principal photography yesterday, monday the 30th of june 2003. It will be a studio-bound production, with locations, Italy, Switzerland, and New Zealand, being used for effects 'plate' photography. |
