I get the feeling that guy likes cartoon toy boobs a little too much…

Yeah it should probably be preserved but the passion that he puts into that first post is bit unnerving.

I think he was going for a humorous effect in his posts. Because of the subject at hand, of course.

THE SUN RACES THROUGH A BLUE SKY FILLED WITH WHITE CLOUDS.

Make sure you cut away from yourself, I feel you should have mentioned that.

I can at least understand those, I guess they’re important to somebody, but frustration at that “bleep” noise being removed from TFA (if that’s even true) is just insane!

perhaps he overreacted, but still, why can’t they make up their minds on how they want their movies to be, before releasing them in the theaters instead of changing them later?

I think it’s more likely they had multiple mixes made for different theaters and the one they thought would sound best on home theater equipment happened to not have the sound.

Possessed is right. I would bet my life that they did not go in and choose to remove (or add) an extra beeping sound effect. It was either an error (if this is even accurate) or just a difference between theatrical sound mixes.

Yeah, I saw the movie twice (once in 3D, once not) I’m pretty sure I heard it in one viewing and didn’t hear it in the next.

well why would the audio be different from mix to mix?

The mix could have been tweaked after one mix went out the door, but before another was shipped to theaters.

If I’m not mistaken, there are four audio formats for TFA. Dolby Digital, Atmos, Datasat, (formerly DTS) and whatever the sound format used for 70mm Imax. The signage at the museum where I saw TFA mentioned the soundtrack is on a DVD that plays in synch with the print.

Where were you in '77?

Otherwise it wouldn’t be a different mix it would just be a different format. This has been going on since the original star wars movie which had at least 3 mixes all with slight differences.

I just think the massive boobs shouldn’t have been animated in the first place, but it was the right decision and a well justified change

I’m not so sure about that, children’s films and entertainment wasn’t always so prudish. I agree though that it had no place in a children’s cartoon, but given the times it wasn’t surprising.

Pixar was a different outfit back in 1989. Editing their history because they’re the new Disney now is almost as bad as what George did to the Greedo scene. It took 14 years for them to suddenly feel guilty about it?

Like I said varying sound mixes can be traced back to the original 1977 run of star wars. Its not a new phenomena.

It wasn’t originally conceived as a kid’s short. It played at film fests and computer animation festivals. (Back in the days when CGI was considered ugly and “soulless” by the old guard.) They didn’t perform the boobectomy until they paired it up with Finding Nemo in 2003.
I just think it’s hilarious John Lasseter suddenly frets over kids seeing it uncut, when it was released twice on video that way.

I don’t care about the boobs either way. The effort to restore the boobs is what I find ridiculous.

I’ve got plenty to bitch about but it probably won’t do me a bit of a good –

I hate the fact that what’s bothering me is nothing I can control and at the same time mostly my fault. I know it’s stupid and I’ve heard more than a few people tell me to “forget about it and move on”.

I’d like to tell this folks to fuck right off because I’m not one of those people who can switch my feelings on and off like a fucking light switch. Also, if I could even MANAGE to do this, I’m pretty sure the good would go a long with the bad. Make sense?

I’d also like to take a moment and bitch at myself for having more than a few reminders of this bullshit hanging around me 24/7 and it’s nothing I can really get rid of.

Okay, I think that’s about it.

I am not lost. I know exactly where I am, I am in some shitty fucking hell, which is exactly what I deserve. But you… YOU are lost. All my life I thought that I needed you, that I couldn’t survive without you, fuck! Fuck! It was the other fucking way around. It was the other way around.

I know the feeling. And I would like to bitch about how my job stresses me the fuck out to where I can’t even relax at home. I can’t ever just relax and enjoy a moment anymore.
