UPDATE: Along the same lines...Friend of TFN, "Yiddleja" sent over the following:

"Hey there. I just found this. Gametrailers.com will be doing a 10 part retrospective on most Star Wars games to have come out. I'm sure they will touch upon the movies and books as well.

Here is the link to the trailer.

I think you may have to sign up for the site (free) not 100% sure but I can't wait. I watched the final fantasy retrospective and it was fantastic. 10-20 mins episodes each."
