![]() “So when the adventure’s over, Kira finds a hidden map inside the Emperor’s tower of the second Death Star. The caption is titled “Death Star trench underwater.” It’s a quote from Star Wars artist Iain McCaig, reading: Some of the early MacGuffins of the movie – the thing that drives a movie’s plot - were a search for Darth Vader’s remains, or a quest to the underwater wreckage of the second Death Star to recover a key piece of history about sacred Jedi sites in the galaxy.Īnd on page 34 of The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, there’s a piece of concept art that shows this in detail. The bad news was, his toybox wouldn’t include a real-life Luke Skywalker action figure. The good news for Abrams was, he got to make a Star Wars movie. Abrams spoke with Entertainment Weekly about early ideas that didn’t make it into the movie. Not long after The Force Awakens’ release, Arndt and J.J. Maybe the work that Arndt did survives in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. (Though Arndt still received a writer’s credit.)īut what does this have to do with the Death Star in the Episode IX trailer? Maybe everything. And their story departed from Arndt’s story, too. Shortly thereafter, they turned in their first script draft. At a mid-December 2013 meeting, they pitched their version of the Episode VII story. With Arndt’s departure, Lucasfilm tapped Kasdan and Abrams to pen Episode VII’s screenplay. Abrams told Empire, Arndt “needed 18 months more than anyone had signed up for.” As Episode VII co-writer and director J.J. In October 2013, Lucasfilm announced that Arndt would no longer write the screenplay. And at one point, someone visited an old Star Wars relic.Įxcept that things didn’t work out with Arndt, either. Instead of Luke training a new hero and leaving that emotional dark place, the search for Luke set the plot in motion. In the ensuing months, Arndt changed the story. Arndt was now responsible for writing the Episode VII story. Abrams would direct Episode VII, Lucas shared his treatment, and producer Simon Kinberg ( Star Wars: Rebels) and Kasdan began working with Arndt as consultants, according to The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.Īt some point (presumably after Lucas met with Lucasfilm in January 2013), Lucasfilm decided to depart from Lucas’ treatment. Three important things happened that month: Lucasfilm announced that J.J. We don’t know precisely what caused George Lucas and his former company to part ways, but January 2013 seems to be an inflection point. Then things kind of went to crap, at least between Lucas and Lucasfilm. He “provided his Episode VII treatment to the project’s creative team,” according to The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. In January 2013, three months after the sale, Lucas met with those working on the new movies, according to Bloomberg. ![]() ![]() The press release announcing the sale said that Lucas would serve “ as creative consultant.” In October 2012, George Lucas sold Lucasfilm to Disney. Though it wouldn’t be announced until November 2012, Lucasfilm’s co-chairs hired screenwriter Michael Arndt before the Disney sale and brought in Lawrence Kasdan (screenwriter of Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and co-writer of Solo: A Star Wars Story) as a consultant. They started to get Lucasfilm’s house in order. In June 2012, he hired Kathleen Kennedy, a seven-time Academy Award-nominated producer and executive, as co-chair of Lucasfilm. But what’s the Death Star doing there? We might be able to figure that out, thanks to the long, convoluted false starts that eventually became The Force Awakens.Īt least as far back as May 2011, George Lucas was thinking about retiring. (Sir Alec never shot in USA)- Mark Hamill December 22, 2016īrekke Fletcher contributed additional reporting.There’s a striking image sitting at the end of the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker teaser trailer: The Death Star, broken and defeated, rising out of an ocean. #CorrectingCNN "Obi-Wan's 1st meeting w/ Luke filmed in Death Valley" No-it was shot in Tunisia, North Africa. The former nuclear bunker is usually closed to the public, but visits have been allowed during the country’s annual Heritage Open Days.Īn error in an earlier version of this story created a disturbance in the Force. In “The Force Awakens,” it enters active service once more, as a base for Resistance X-Wing Fighters. This former military base was used by US and British forces during World War II but closed in 1993. Since being decommissioned, the base has been used for several movie projects. It was a staging post for US military aircraft and home to some of Britain's nuclear arsenal. At the height of the Cold War, RAF Greenham Common military base was one of the most heavily guarded locations in the UK.

Reggie clings to the belief that George visits her, but she is starting to lie to cover this up. Her sister, Reggie ( Britt McKillip), acts out – stealing toilet seats from neighbors and school and hanging them on a tree – until her mother sends her to therapy. Her father, Clancy ( Greg Kean), has an affair that affects his marriage to Joy ( Cynthia Stevenson). George's family is struggling to deal with her death. By Season 2, she has mostly adjusted to her new role, with few unresolved issues with her life and her afterlife. In Season 1, George has trouble adjusting to her circumstances – collecting souls while holding down a day job. ![]() Each reaper has a secret quota of souls once the quota is met, the reaper moves on to another realm and the last soul reaped then takes his or her job collecting souls. She is soon informed that, rather than moving on to the " great beyond", she will become a grim reaper in the External Influence Division, collecting souls of people who die in accidents (many of which have a Rube Goldberg-style complexity ), and homicides.

An excited Frog juggled the jar and finally dropped it, shattering it on the ground. Frog begged Toad to let him hold the jar, something to which Toad finally agreed.

The show explores the experiences of a small team of such reapers, as well as the changes in George and her family as they deal with George's death. George's death leaves behind her mother ( Cynthia Stevenson) and the rest of her family at a point when her relationships with them were on shaky ground. George soon learns that a reaper's job is to remove the souls of people, preferably just before they die, and escort them until they move on into their afterlife. George dies early in the pilot episode and becomes one of the " undead", a " grim reaper". Įighteen-year-old Georgia "George" Lass ( Ellen Muth) is the show's protagonist and narrator.

It’s fast and frenetic and presents the challenge that most fans of the Nioh and Souls-Borne games, in general, would appreciate. Right out of the gate, combat in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty feels fantastic. It’s not that the narrative is even particularly bad, but it feels like Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty knows what we’re all here for the combat. While they rarely make combat easier, their involvement adds context to the story as you progress, but once again, do little to add much levity and weight to the story. When it comes to general pacing, there are indeed various elements that propel the story forward, be it pairing you with a historically important companion or mythological beast to help you through each stage. It’s also worth noting here that Wo Long also runs quite well on next-gen consoles. Thankfully, there’s plenty to admire, from gorgeous and unique enemies and bosses to larger environments that remain ravaged from a previous battle. The supernatural approach to the last days of the Han Dynasty definitely encourages a little research prior to playing, should you want to understand exactly how this world has been manipulated to suit Wo Long’s approach, but should you be in it for the combat, the story sits largely in the background. While the lore is admittedly more interesting than the story itself, its structure exists to guide your character through each of the demons that inhabit the lands, inspired by various Chinese mythological creatures. While Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty actually takes place in 184 AD China during the battle of the Three Kingdoms, players can create a unique and customisable character, who is tasked with ridding three surrounding kingdoms of the demons that have now risen to plague them. While its boss battles serve as the main highlights, this is without a doubt a successful entry into the ever-expanding S ouls-Borne games that rarely pushes the medium forward, but uses past tropes and successful aspects to deliver something that feels relatively fresh. ![]() Much like those games, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is a challenging and satisfying romp that largely succeeds at providing consistently cohesive combat mechanics and confident pacing.

Statues of the most important Marylanders in American history: Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass, have been in planning and production for the past three years. On the evening of Monday, February 10, 2020, at a Joint Session of the Maryland General Assembly, two new statues were dedicated in the Maryland State House. Many of these objects are on loan for display at the Baltimore Museum of Art, Maryland Center for History and Culture, Maryland Institute College of Art, Homewood Museum of the Johns Hopkins University, Walters Art Museum and the Peabody Institute. In 1996, the collection grew extensively in size when the state acquired the Peabody Art Collection from the Peabody Institute in Baltimore, Maryland, thus adding an invaluable collection of American and European paintings, sculptures, and works on paper to the state’s ownership. Many of these works of art are displayed in the Maryland State House, Government House, and other legislative buildings throughout the Annapolis complex. The collection is rich in portraiture of Maryland governors, legislators and first ladies. The collection includes paintings, sculptures, decorative arts and works on paper dating from the thirteenth century to the present. It dates from 1774 when the portrait of William Pitt, Earl of Chatham was presented to the state by Charles Willson Peale. The state of Maryland is fortunate to have one of the most historic collections of state-owned art in the nation. It is a unit of the Maryland State Archives.
