The Feature Film

Two Star Wars releases. One November day.

November 1, 2005 was a good day to be a Star Wars fan.

Revenge of the Sith came home on DVD, and the original Star Wars: Battlefront II launched in North America on the same day. Twenty-one years later, those DVD menus and game cases bring back a very particular era.

The story behind the images.

Battlefront II added space battles and playable Jedi. And the movie’s bonus DVD even included a two-level Battlefront II demo for the original Xbox.

Seeking for the Archive: Sideshow’s 1/4-scale Darth Talon Premium Format statue, either edition at an affordable price. This is a wider Expanded Universe collecting target, separate from the two anniversary releases. Product reference shown.
