[net.movies] Star Wars III ?

kik (06/08/82)

 
I just saw Star Trek II--The Wrath of Khan last night.  Very good movie.
I highly recommend it!  The thing that interested me, however, was the
give away folder called "Movie Facts".  Under the section on Harrison Ford,
it stated that he had just \\finished// making the movie "Revenge of the
Jedi", the third chapter of the Star Wars episode!  It didn't give any other
details.  Does anyone know when it will be released?  It is not listed as
one of the movies slated for summer release, nor have I heard any other
details about its making or scheduled release.  Anyone out there more
knowledgeable on the subject that might shed some light?  No spoilers
please!

I had heard somewhere that RotJ is due out next May.
Whether this is true or not...

Re: I had heard somewhere that RotJ is due out next May. Whether this is true or

considering the fact that the previous two Star Wars movies have been released
in May, and that the video tapes of the first movie was released in May (due to
contract dates) I wouldn't bet against May as the release date.  From
announcements released so far (from trade mags ... all informal) May 27 is the
day to mark.
