Earlier today it was first announced by The Wrap that a director had officially been chosen to helm the new Star Wars film. J.J. Abrams, known for such projects as Lost, Super 8, and the rebooted Star Trek franchise, is set to take on the role.

It was first announced that a new set of Star Wars films were to be expected once Disney purchased Lucasfilm last year. This first film is slated for a 2015 release, ten years after the last Star Wars film made it into theaters.

Joining Abrams in this project is screenwriter Michael Arndt who will pen the script. Arndt is known for his work on the screenplays for Toy Story 3 and Little Miss Sunshine. He is also responsible for writing the script for this years' The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.

With the talents of these two coming together for the newest Star Wars film, expectations will be high. Like they wouldn't be already, right? For more information, please click on the link below.

Yesterday on Yahoo! Movies, Matt McDaniel posted an article about some of the different changes the Star Wars saga will receive for their Blu-ray release. Star Wars: The Complete Saga will include some changes that fans have talked about for many years. One big change will be a fix to a small mistake made in The Empire Strikes Back. In one of the earliest scenes, a pole holding a monster's arm enters the shot very slightly. This will no longer be visible in the Blu-ray version.

Other changes have to do with lightsaber brightness and Yoda's appearance in The Phantom Menace. Be sure to read the rest of McDaniel's article to see what else the Blu-ray will include. Star Wars: The Complete Saga will be released on September 16th.
