Watch Now: Every Lightsaber Ignition and Retraction In The ‘Star Wars’ Saga

Posted: 07 Aug 2010 04:01 PM PDT

With Star Wars Celebration V around the corner and this being the 30th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back, we here at Geeks of Doom were looking for something on the web that celebrated one of our favorite film franchises of all time. What we found was a video that shows every lightsaber being powered up and powered down throughout the six main Star Wars films.

Watch the video "Every Lightsaber Ignition & Retraction" here below!

The video starts off with the lightsaber ignitions from the original trilogy and moves on to the prequel trilogy, the video does the same thing when it comes to the lightsaber retractions except in reverse order (prequels first).

The video's creator stated that it took 6 hours to compile this video, which is only clips where you can see the lightsaber ignite/retract (not just hear it), and also where the lightsaber is intentionally ignited/retracted [...]

Tony Scott To Direct Adaptation Of Mark Millar’s ‘Nemesis’

Posted: 07 Aug 2010 07:06 AM PDT

In a message via his Twitter account, Mark Millar announced that Tony Scott would be taking the captain's chair for a feature film adaptation of he and Steven McNiven's graphic novel, Nemesis for 20th Century Fox.

Never to shy away from potentially controversial content with other titles such as Wanted and Kick-Ass on his resume, Millar's Nemesis is not like the superhero stories we're used to. It follows Matt Anderson, a genius and billionaire who also happens to be one of the world's greatest fighters. Anderson uses his many resources to set off on a quest for revenge against those who murdered his parents -- parents who just so happened to also be super-villains. This makes Anderson something of a villain as well, hunting down cops left and right on his way to facing off against the police chief responsible for the capture of his parents.

Millar talked about the deal on his official site in-depth. You can read the whole thing below! [...]
