'Sequel' movie


There's no way to respond directly to statements in user comments, so I'll do it here. In the user comment titled "Harder to find than the Star Wars Holiday Special" it says "There is also a rumor that a 'sequel' was shot during production of the first Ewok movie, Caravan of Courage."

I haven't heard this rumor, but I do know that Eric Walker and Warwick Davis were both 15 when the movie was made and had to receive on-set schooling to comply with the education laws. They were allowed to make their own movie as a school project.

This student film is probably what started the rumor. Lucasfan.com did an interview with Eric Walker several years ago where he talked about it. An excerpt discussing the film is at http://www.lepconnie.com/articles/walkerexcerpt.html and the full interview is at http://www.lucasfan.com/ewdr/ericwalker.html

A little webmaster cooperation brought this about - the Lucasfan webmaster used to host my Willow website, and when he told me he was going to interview Eric Walker I told him about the Starlog quote that's mentioned in the interview so he could ask Eric about it. Then later on he let me post the interview excerpt on my page.
