The most anticipated Blu-ray release ever - the Star Wars™ Saga - emerges from light speed this September 2011.

For the first time, all six of George Lucas' epic films (Episodes I-VI) are united in one complete set.

Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release Star Wars in three distinct sets to meet the needs of every Star Wars fan:

Star Wars: The Complete Saga on Blu-ray (9-disc Set includes all six films)
Star Wars: Prequel Blu-ray Trilogy (3-disc set includes Episodes I-III)
Star Wars: Original Blu-ray Trilogy (3-disc set includes Episodes IV-VI)

Star Wars: The Complete Saga will feature all six live-action Star Wars feature films utilizing the highest possible picture and audio presentation, along with three additional discs and more than 30 hours of extensive special features including never-before-seen deleted and alternate scenes, an exploration of the exclusive Star Wars archives, and much more.

Star Wars: The Complete Saga on Blu-ray will be available for £89.99 (RRP) and the Star Wars: Trilogy Sets for £44.99 (RRP).

Well half of the Anorak City team knew this and half didn't.

If you are like me and you had no idea then watch this fascinating interview with William Shatner...


New Spiderman actor Andrew Garfield has confessed to shedding a tear when he first tried on the web-slingers famous suit.

Speaking to Contactmusic he said he said: "It was all so surreal - definitely an overwhelming feeling of pure childhood joy."

"Spider-Man was my favourite superhero. I guess I found him easy to relate to. His struggle was profound, and I understood it. Every school has their bullies, and when you're a kid you wish you had the power to fight them and protect other people - and yourself."

IF you've loved the Family Guy spoofs of the Star Wars trilogy, then we have good news for you.

Creator Seth MacFarlane is set to take the mickey-takes into a whole new universe.

He plans to boldly go where the series has not been before, and take on the institution that is ... Star Trek.

Seth says that while spoofing classic sci-fi movies is hard, he and his team have their eyes on the Star Trek films, although he warns we might not see them for a while.

The Family Guy Star Wars send-ups are Blue Harvest (A New Hope), Something Something Something Darkside (The Empire Strikes Back) and It's A Trap (Return Of The Jedi).

Earlier we showed you Michael Myers playing the Haloween theme tune with some style.

It appears there are no ends to his talents as you can see here when he steals a go kart and performs an excellent wheelie!

Not just a virgin slaughtering serial killer after all....

A US judge has dismissed a case alleging that Harry Potter author JK Rowling copied her ideas from another writer.

The claim, made by the estate of author Adrian Jacobs, alleged that the fourth Harry Potter book, The Goblet Of Fire, was based on his work The Adventures Of Willy The Wizard.

Judge Shira Scheindlin ruled there were major differences between the two works, and threw out the multi-million pound claim.
