Welcome to STARKILLER - The Jedi Bendu Script Page
The Internet home of the original drafts and screenplays of the STAR WARS saga
From this site you can read and download the early drafts and
original shooting scripts, see the spectacular pre-production art
of Ralph McQuarrie and Alex Tavoularis, read discerning essays
and articles about the STAR WARS Saga and directly participate
with your own artwork and texts.
The Jedi Bendu is a group of devoted fans who collect and treasure
the original drafts and shooting scripts of the STAR WARS saga.
Formed in 1995 by "old-timers" who remembered the halcyon
days of 1977, the Jedi Bendu have managed to collect a vast array
of scripts, drafts, synopses, artwork, blueprints and photos pertaining
to the greatest modern myth of moviemaking. And we are happy to
share this with you.
This is, in part, the Jedi Bendu missive:
- To pursue and find (photocopies of) early drafts and screenplays
of the original trilogy (A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back,
Return of the Jedi) and the prequel trilogy (The Phantom
Menace, Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith).
- To pursue and find (photocopies of) storyboards from the
aforementioned films, by such artists as Alex Tavoularis, Ivor
Beddoes, Irvin Kershner, Joe Johnston et al.
- To pursue and find (copies of) rare photographs or film clips
detailing cut scenes or angles not normally shown in the films
themselves.
- To pursue and find (copies of) blueprints, floor plans, call
sheets etc. from the films.
Our activity is purely non-profit. We are doing this out of our
love and respect for STAR WARS. However, we do feel that the official
publications seldom live up to the expectations their luscious
covers offer. If our endeavors will prompt Lucasfilm's publishing
department to take action in this regard, then our efforts have
not been in vain. Still, we are happy if everyday fans and movie
afficionados like our work.
If you want to support the Jedi Bendu, do not hesitate to

Click on, young Jedi Padawan...
Beware the Bogan, follow the Ashla!
