star wars episode 7

Darth Vader may not be returning for 'Star Wars: Episode 7' (that we know of), but he has indeed made a comeback. Sideshow Collectibles unveiled their life-size statue of the most iconic Sith Lord in the galaxy -- and you can take him home if you have several thousand dollars in your bank account.

Look, there's no way of saying this without sounding mean, but let's be honest: most fan-made stuff kinda sucks. In the wide expanse of the internet, there are thousands of crummy videos and fake trailers and posters for any one thing that's actually worth highlighting and praising. Today, let's take a look at one of those exceptions.

Looks like 'Star Wars: Episode 7' isn't quite done with casting just yet. Disney has just announced that two new faces will join the cast of J.J. Abrams' upcoming film following a major casting call, and that production will take a brief hiatus in August due to Harrison Ford's injury, giving the newbies plenty of time to get acquainted with their fellow cast members.

We knew that 'Star Wars: Episode 7' was going to be a little nostalgia-heavy with the return of the original trilogy's stars to the franchise, but it turns out that it goes even deeper than that. A new report claims that the new film will not only feature flashbacks to the younger days of Carrie Fisher's Princess Leia Organa, but that the young version of the secret Skywalker sibling will be playe

Now, comes word that the 'Star Wars: Episode 7' production team convened early this morning to discuss the nature of Ford's injury and how it will impact the shooting schedule. The early word from those meetings was that 'Star Wars: Episode 7' "could be pushed back by a substantial amount of time."

Last week, the internet couldn't stop talking about Harrison Ford's 'Star Wars: Episode 7' injury. Oh, the jokes! Oh, the memes! There's a certain amount of comedy to be found in an elderly Han Solo injuring his ankle thanks to the door of the Millennium Falcon. But now is the time to quit with the laughter: Ford's injury, while certainly not life-threatening, is bad enough that he won't be able to return to the set for eight weeks.

Harrison Ford is getting too old for this. The 71-year-old actor, now famous for his "I'm over it" approach to various situations, including those raving 'Star Wars' fans, was sent to a hospital after injuring his ankle today while filming scenes for 'Star Wars: Episode 7.'

While director J.J. Abrams has a team set up in Abu Dhabi filming scenes for 'Star Wars: Episode 7,' even more action is commencing in London's Pinewood Studios. We've already seen plenty of leaked photos from the desert-based set, and now we have one more to add to our list, this one coming from the UK and starring the lovable R2-D2...

This week has seen over 50 images leak from the 'Star Wars: Episode 7' set showing off new creatures, the Tatooine set and confirming the existence of the Millennium Falcom. This is all highly unusual for a J.J. Abrams movie, where he likes to keep things as secretive as possible and, today, Abrams responded to the many leaks on Twitter with a note from the set.

During a week when everyone is excited over some fairly benign 'Star Wars: Episode 7' set pics (which you can see here and here!), it shouldn't really surprise us that someone reedited the original 'Star Wars' so all the dialogue is in alphabetical order, yet still...
