‘Star Wars’ Prediction from Long Time ago Raises Questions about Vision for Final Trilogy

Future Life magazine-August 1980

In the August 1980 issue of Future Life, published just three months after the release of The Empire Strikes Back, a quote appears in the science and science fiction magazine that references Empire as the “‘second act’ of a proposed nine movie Star Wars series.”

Interrogations

The Interrogation of Jerry JB Manas

The Thorough Interrogation of Renaissance Man and Author J.B. “Jerry” Manas

The interrogation of J.B. “Jerry” Manas is fascinating for anyone who has an inclination towards writing, although the concepts and advice wound through this can apply to subjects much broader than just writing.

A Movie Review of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies | The Defining Chapter

The Hobbit The Battle of the Five Armies

The third and final installment of The Hobbit, is more a bridge to the initial Lord of the Rings trilogy then farewell fanfare to The Hobbit trilogy, at least that’s how I see it.

There are two ways to look at this movie, as an end to the trilogy of The Hobbit or as the third act in a six part play. It’s much better overall to look at it as the latter, because of all of the extra stuff added into this trilogy to make it a bridge from one trilogy to the next.

I just can’t see it any other way.
