This week Disney told the story of a nimble young street thief who stumbles upon a powerful artifact which forever changes his destiny. No, it was not a rerun of Aladdin.

With many familiar elements (possibly too many) will this be the gateway drug for a new generation of Star Wars addicts? Also, a random look at fall shows to date, What's In The Box and The 1977 edition of Desert Island DVDs. It’s more fun than bullseying wamp rats with your T-16 in beggars canyon!
