    Yes, we've been kindly asked to remove the picture and the article by Lucasfilm. :(

    Well, I guess that settles the question of whether it was legit or not!

    Because of the steps and the entrances into the mounds, I'd say it's not a Tusken settlement but more like a homestead. Tuskens didn't seem like the type to build such permanent structures. It does look like a moisture vaporator and perhaps bantha skins on the side though.

    Jawas perhaps, or maybe the usual Tatooine randoms. I think it's probably the same setting as the one they were shooting in the UAE.

    If they're shooting Tatooine at Pinewood I hope the weather improves, the British weather at the moment is appalling. Quite a stark contrast from Abu Dhabi I'm sure.

    Elsewhere someone pointed out that the doorway part looks like Mos Espa. So yeah, my initial thought was Tuskens, but now I'm thinking a more permanent settlement. Maybe some town near the market from the set video.

    Hey, maybe it's Bob's house!

    The area on the left side of the picture definately looks like that market area from the Abrams video released a week or so ago, anyone spot Bob?:D

    Well I'm glad I saved the image. I have a nice little folder with all the images we get and I like it to be complete. :p

    It's still pretty dreary where I am. But hope things are brightening up in London.

    Ah, it'll just be the same kind of weather as when Luke found the homestead burning. Mean and moody.

    Thanks! I don't blame people being critical of our site. It's understandable, we're only 1.5 years old. Everything we do is with good feelings and we'll never lie to the fans. We're one of you. :)

    I think that things are getting mixed up with jedinews. That is the site that runs comments to articles about speculation that is posted as rumors... as rumors. They are bad.

    Yes, that's exactly what happened! I was just looking back and I was thinking they were the same site. My bad - sorry about that. Thanks for the clarification and keep up the good work Crankcase! :)

    Huh. Since that guy did have to remove it....possibly legit and related to episode VII?

    I am in no way arguing that it was or wasn't part of Lucas' original idea...but that doesn't make it any better of an idea. We are, after all, talking about the same guy that directed and edited those same [removed] known as prequels and after reviewing them at length still deemed them worthy of being released to the public.

    The man directed A New Hope, and the 3 prequels. 3 out of those 4 were absolutely horrid. I think it's much easier to conclude that the guy got lucky on the first one and then it caught up with him on the next 3.

    He's an idea guy. He's at his best when he's writing from a high level story telling perspective and creating a universe/sand box for others to expand on. The problem is he has no business directing or writing specific dialogue. When he does...you get crap like "Midichlorians".

    Mod edit: Inappropriate.

    I don't want to advertise our site but after our 3rd update on that article I think it's more than clear that the image was legit. Of course I might be wrong.
