NTITSWSOA, but the Disembodied Brain offers a neat glimpse into the other announcements made at the Comic-Con Convention besides the Revenge of the Sith Episode III title.
F'rinstance, did you know that Kurt Russell tried out for the part of han Solo? Howabout William Katt (The Greatest American Hero) as Luke? Or Cindy Williams (Shirley from TV's Laverne & Shirley) as Leia?
Also, the opening credits of Revenge of the Sith (due May 2005) will be a recap of the third season of Star Wars: Clone Wars, the animated series showing on Cartoon Network around April 2005.

So, Wookies are now Pacific islander types. Odd, I never saw Chewbacca in a grass skirt.....
Oh, and that doesn't square with the Wookies in KotOR who inhabited the giant trees of their forest planet. Much like Endor, only without the annoying Ewoks.

You know, it's a good thing this isn't a site full of raving Star Wars fanboys...I'd shudder to think how many postings we'd see about SW if that were true!
"There are no plans to make Episodes VII, VIII or IX, McCallum said."
Doesn't that contradict other "official" announcements?
Carrie Fisher seems to have forgiven SW for ruining her life. Either that or they waved a nice check in front of her.
