Good Star Wars news: according to TF.N, Ewan McGregor has reported being "very pleased" with the script to Episode III. That's good news because McGregor has made it pretty clear that making these movies, well, hasn't really been his cup of tea. He's complained about the amount of bluescreen work and the amount of acting he does all by himself, reacting to nothing; and he loudly complained when he heard the title Attack of the Clones for the first time. So if he's giving this one a stamp of preliminary approval, well, things might be going great for the final chapter.

(Not, of course, that I've ever thought things were going wrong, mind you.)

I'm glad that a year-and-a-half are going to elapse between the arrivals of Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King and Episode III. Hopefully that time will cut down on the silly comparisons a bit. (Yeah, probably not. But I can always hope.)
