THE FORCE IS WITH STAR WARS FAN
WASHINGTON, D.C. (Wireless Flash) Fans of Star Wars are banding together to help a Canadian man who has been sued by director George Lucas. Last month, Lucasfilm Limited sued 34-year-old Gerardo Follano for selling homemade replicas of the armor worn by Darth Vaders storm troopers but it now appears the suit will soon be settled. It seems more than 300 sci-fi fans have sent letters demanding Lucasfilm drop the case and sources at the film company confirm theyre close to resolving the matter. Meanwhile, a lawyer who has been consulting Follano says he believes the turn of events was definitely helped by the ...fantastic outpouring of support from Star Wars fans.
