Star Wars – Young Jedi Knights Books

From one generation to the next, here are the early stories of Han Solo and Princess Leia’s children learning to use the Force at Master Luke Skywalker’s new Jedi Academy on Yavin 4.  More for younger readers, but also a good background for the characters and events in the current “Legacy of the Force” line of books.

Star Wars Week

A scant thirty years ago a young filmmaker set forth to make a movie.  The pop culture landscape and the movie business itself would in many ways never be the same.  His name, George Lucas.  His film, Star Wars.  To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the film, which remains my all-time favorite, the RazorFine Crew is proud to present, along with our regular content, a week-long look at the trilogy and the prequels, the books and the comics, the video games (and that awful Christmas Special), and so much more.  May the force by with you!  (and, if anything goes wrong, remember “It’s not my fault!”)

Shrek the Third

  • Title: Shrek the Third
  • IMDb: link

Well, the good news is the third installment isn’t the complete disaster that many saw coming.  The bad news however is it isn’t nearly as good as Shrek 2.  Still, it has some memorable moments and a few laughs, and should entertain you for most of it’s 93 minute running time.

After King Harold (John Cleese) falls ill and dies, the kingdom falls to Shrek (Mike Meyers) who wants nothing to do with ruling and only wants to take Fiona (Cameron Diaz) back to the swamp and live in peace and quiet, which will be difficult considering Fiona’s got her own baby surprise for our hero.
