Just when you thought comedian Patton Oswalt's viral hit rant from 'Parks and Recreation' couldn't get any better, along comes an animated version of quite possibly the greatest movie pitch of all time.
Last month, the comic made a hysterical appearance on
From the moment Disney announced it would begin "winding down" 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars' as it began building a new era of the 'Star Wars' franchise, fans have wondered where the animated arm of the franchise would reach next. Now, we've learned that the newest project will take the name 'Star Wars Rebels,' chronicling the time between trilogies after the formation of the Empire! Preview the newest 'Star Wars' series inside!
'Star Wars Episode 7' will bring back original franchise cast members like Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher, but we may have learned which new actor will be joining them in the most anticipated film in years. Drumroll, please...are 'Star Wars' fans ready to see Jonathan Rhys Meyers join the saga?
Turns out Ronald Reagan wasn't so crazy when purposed to build lasers that would shoot down Soviet missiles aimed at the U.S.
One of the main questions regarding 'Star Wars: Episode 7' is, "Will J.J. Abrams be able to follow in George Lucas' footsteps?" Many, including 'Star Trek Into Darkness' star Simon Pegg, believes yes, as he's already reinvigorated the 'Star Trek' universe. But what exactly will he bring to the next chapter?

For some 'Star Trek' fans, it was a slap to the face when director JJ Abrams stopped going where no man has gone before and decided to journey to a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. How will they feel when they see Abrams discussing how great 'Star Wars' is with the chief engineer of the Enterprise, Montgomery "Scotty" Scott (AKA, Simon Pegg)?
As bright as the future of 'Star Wars' might seem with its (at least) five new movies on the way, that future will always be dimmed by the cancellation of Cartoon Network's CGI epic 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars.' Admittedly, the series went through a meaty 5 seasons, but its unexpected shelving left a number of already-produced arcs on the cutting room floor, and a number of unanswered questions. Fortunately, you can get a new taste of one of the unreleased stories right now!
This Saturday is basically every geek's dream come true. Not only is it Free Comic Book Day (!!!!!!), it is also Star Wars Day. (Get it?? "May the fourth be with you.")

'Star Wars' fans needn't worry about whether their favorite composer will return to score the new 'Episode 7'-led trilogy -- director J.J. Abrams assures us John Williams will be coming back.
