Episode I in 3D opened today and really it's all about the Maul. The popular Sith Lord cut down
in his prime has featured prominently in the re-release posters and promos, and he managed to
sneak his way onto the back cover of the Darth Plagueis Novel too, before he makes his full (?) return later this spring on the Clone Wars TV series.So expect the Maul Mania to continue - it is the biggest Star Wars come back since Boba Fett! Who knows where Darth Maul might show up next.

The next time someone in Hollywood gets the bright idea to reboot, remake or re-watever a popular franchise they better look at this movie for how to do it right.

Combining the perfect mix of fresh ideas, clever homage, top notch FX, and real heart - it was probably the best movie this summer.
Artist Anthony Lister was commissioned to create this cool wall mural in LA to mark the DVD release.
