So the Forcecast released a new podcast today. It's pre-recorded and they apparently only had heard the first two audio leaks from the blu-rays. I have to say it's pretty sad listening to them try to justify the changes while you can hear the disappointment in their voices. You can listen to the podcast here.
Here are some highlights:
54:32 They first start discussing the blu-rays
76:54 They discuss rumors of the ewok eyes being changed and Jason confuses the 2004 release with tweaks done to Greedo in "Star Wars: Revised"
79:59 Jason reveals his love for Hayden in ROTJ, Jimmy reveals his disdain for the change in pacing with the added shuttle and changed dialog in ESB
91:38 Jason reveals he had never noticed the Emperor's slug before and neither of them had ever heard the term "Emperor's Slug" before
93:16 Jason extolls the fact that George changes the films in each release and that to him it's like Christmas
94:33 They discuss how they learned a year ago from Matt Wood that in 2007 he, Dave Accord and Tom Myers had gone back into the audio to "clean it up"
95:50 the start of Matt Wood's discussion
99:25 They play the leaked audio of the new Krayt yell and quickly try to justify it, call it cool and ominous
101:01 They spend two and a half minutes trying to set up and justify the new Vader dialog before finally playing it
104:21 After the clip they both kind of pause and stumble before launching into justifications
111:25 They hint that maybe the vader scene isn't real anyway
WOW i thought TFN was pathetic before but occasional they can be critical if an EU book sucks or whatever, but this kind of sucking up to Lucas is beyond pathetic. Its like a cult and they have found out their "god" cult figure of worship is a fraud but don't want to even believe it.
Either they get free stuff from Lucasfilm like review copies of books and DVDs blu rays and don't want to blow that or they really are drinking the cool aid.
I see with the star wars revisited comment they are making a dig at Adywan if that is what your revised transcription means, i won't even bother to listen to the forcecast they have jar jar and jedi rocks as opening themes on it its headache inducing.
I love how these Luca$h lovers always bring up Adywan as if Adywan is the reason Lucas violated and butchered three classic films three fucking times already and won't put out the originals, and is preparing to ruin then again in another 5-7 years in 3-D.
Do we really need 3 more goddamn fake original vision version of the same damn films and no release of the originals, my god this has gotten beyond the pale of ridiculous.
