Part of the back-story of Fanboys involves a fan with cancer. But a new version of the film has no mention of that shadow — the impetus for the cross-country journey is just an impatience to see the film and a chance for the friends to bond. Why the changes?
A film about Star Wars fans, made by Star Wars fans, Fanboy's plot centers on a group of wannabe Jedis who travel cross-country and break into Skywalker Ranch. It's billed as a comedic road flick, but you'll need an encyclopedic knowledge of George Lucas' movie franchise to get the jokes.
