The same basic cable channels have been running marathons of Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, etc. every so often for years. I don’t think it’s “we’re losing the rights soon” so much as “eh, guess it’s time for another Star Wars marathon.” Also, I’m not sure how much Disney talks to TNT, but it wouldn’t surprise me if there was some coordination to drum up Star Wars excitement before the trailer drops tonight.

I know Mad Men was. I’m not sure how widespread it’s been recently apart from that.

At the same time, Futurama is moving to Sci Fi, which would explain why Comedy Central has been running it a lot lately. Surprised Adult Swim didn’t try to get it back as it was once a big part of their lineup.
This might lend credence to the rumors Sci Fi is actually interested in the new MST3K.

I am never calling it that. Sounds like an abbreviation for some venereal disease. That some ad agency guy probably got paid millions for dreaming up that rebranding ought to be a crime.

You broke it just like they did.

Mad Men switched to digital for their fourth season. Breaking Bad used film the whole way through, but ended in 2013. I don’t know of any other recent TV show that uses film.
Does Better Call Saul use film or digital? And I know Walking Dead used to use 16mm at the beginning, did they ever switch to digital (or 35mm)?
Saul is digital. True Detective season 1 was 35mm. Can’t think of anything on right now that is film.
Not that that is important to the article anyway, because you can shoot digital at 23.976fps and in fact most cinematic TV shows are shot that way.
The umpire will show you the true nature of the forks. He is your masseuse now.

I wonder if George played Oddworld games before working on the Prequels.
Today’s Echo Base Live event proved to be a very fortunate trip for me!
Anyone want any scans of the DC material?
Ol’ George has the GOUT, I see.

Sweet, sweet finds mate 😃
I love those old ‘Widescreen Collectors Edition’ laserdisc boxsets - very classy.

I still have my cinema programme thing and the making of thing from 1977
The choc ice was eaten though.
Isn’t it a little weird how in the first movie, Han says that he’s never heard of the Jedi or the Force, but the Jedi only went extinct twenty years earlier?

in a world where there is little evidence of reading or writing, it isn’t too surprising. In fact, i am pretty sure i was struck by how many people seemed to know of the force as the movies went on, when it was first introduced as this rare unheard of thing. (i know, its just a movie)

He just said he didn’t believe in this stuff. This is also consistent with what he said in TFA.

You don’t believe in the Force, do you?HAN
Kid, I’ve flown from one side of this galaxy to the other. I’ve seen a lot of strange stuff, but I’ve never seen anything to make me believe there’s one all-powerful force controlling everything. There’s no mystical energy field that controls my destiny. It’s all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
In any case, I think Lucas originally wanted the Jedi to be extinct for much more years for the original movie, but this later changed with the next two.

Right, it’s one thing to hear stories about 10,000 people who had magic powers who were wiped out 20 years ago and to actually experience it yourself.

It was a big galaxy too.
The Person in Question
I’d have liked it if we found out in the PT that Vader and Obi-Wan are older than they seem (the force n’ such) and the extinction event happened long before the events of ANH.
The force should be an ancient myth that the hopeful still cling to.
