Rediscovering "Star Wars"

I just read on Rebelscum.com, a famous Star Wars-themed website, at its page, that Dr. David West Reynolds, a famous Star Wars book author, launched a 30-day-long Kickstarter project to film a documentary titled "The Archaeology of Star Wars", which target is to rediscover the remains of Mos Eisley, Mos Espa, the Tosche Station, the Lars farm and the other locations in the Sahara desert used to film the scenes on the desert planet of Tatooine.

Many of these scenes from Star Wars (now Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, 1977) and Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999) were filmed beetween Libya and Tunisia and, during the filming of the 1977 film, when George Lucas and his crew were filming the scenes with the Jawa sandcrawler on the desertic border, the Libyan military ordered that the vehicle was ransacked because they thinked it was a sort of tank or a bomb vehicle from Tunisia!

"Tales from Kweelera", S1E01: "Beginning a War, Part One"

Space.
Outer space.
And, then, the Earth.
A small blue and green planet: Earth.
Now renamed Kweelera.
A man.
A Homo sapiens sapiens.
An human.
Looking at the sky.
A spacecraft.
Travelling above him.
It's the KWS Gigantic, the most powerful warship in the Milky Way, equipped with three hundreds and fifty weapons, including fifteen ion cannons and one hundred laser weapons. The Majesty-class, the Gigantic's spacecraft class, was designed in 5000.
Some people critizised the idea to call it "Gigantic", because its name sounded too much like the name of the RMS Titanic, a terrestrial Olympic-class steam mail ship that sunk in 1912.
But it was also a name representing greatness, indistructibleness, power: majesty.
The Gigantic was just entered in Kweelera's orbit, and its crew of four thousands humans was preparing to what probably stopped the flow of the time and the existance of the space, a word formed by three letters: "war".
War, a total war, which changed our universe, and some other universes, too.

I'll write here

With this post I'll annunce that I will write on this blog a new science fiction literary work divided in episodes, just like a sci-fi TV series, but without pictures and laser beam sounds.

You can comment it, but I say you that if you'll use it or its relative material without my consense, you'll probably be in trouble. So, please follow my series and, if you want, you can share it through all the ways Blogspot (and I) will permit you to use.

"Wonder Woman" (2017) review


I've seen the new DC Extended Universe film, Wonder Woman, it's a beautiful film and I can say that Patty Jenkins has done a good work: she and her team transformed Batman's secondary ally in a true live-action superheroine, they transformed a real-life future Nazi Party member in a supervillain, the mad Nazi scientist Princess Maru (supervillain alter-ego: Doctor Poison) in the ruthless Spanish chemist Isabel "Doctor Poison" Maru, working for the German and Ottoman Empires, a 1918 photo from Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice in a squad of freedom fighters.

Many comics characters are adapted in this film in a very good way.
