How stupid can a person be?
Aaaand I just made the mistake of reading the rest of the comments. Very few times before have I wanted so hard to punch someone through a computer screen.
Lots of factual inaccuracies too. The guy was really nice though!
It was a badly written article all the way around, I felt.

I’m not sure why, but the comments aren’t even showing up on the page for me. 😕

I see Lucasfilm’s PR is in fullswing…
What’s the internal temperature of a TaunTaun? Luke warm.
In the sense of a self-replicating PR machine that creates PR machines out of previously innocent fans? Yes. To George’s credit, it’s very sci-fi. 😃
I was thinking more of actual PR agents writing stupid stuff in comments.

I know. I’m just saying that their machine is effective enough to transform real people into folks who post such nonsense. Saves themselves the effort of doing that. 😉
Don’t blame it all on Lucasfilm. Plenty of people don’t see any significant visual difference between DVD and Blu-ray, and assume all content on a DVD is more-or-less “DVD quality” and by extension not significantly different than Blu-ray. Therefore, because the GOUT is on a DVD, it has essentially the same visual quality as the Blu-rays. QED, or something like that. You see this all the time, it’s just particularly galling because the GOUT is so awful (which you can blame on Lucasfilm).
Yeah, I mean why didn’t he just use the old pan and scan VHS tapes. Those are good enough for me! Haha!

Double post
Actually, that was a triple post.

Now there are three of them and you catch on pretty quick.

it’s the disease of the XXI century, people with cellphones of $400-600 and still with DVD players at home. When you can buy a cheap Blu-Ray player for 50-70 bucks
He’s no good to me dead
My ex used to swear there was no difference between DVD and blu Ray. Even after I explained the difference in excruciating detail she didn’t care and constantly told me it looks exactly the same.
She’s not in my life anymore.
Were you dating my mom?
…
Wait, don’t answer that.
Now there are three of them and you catch on pretty quick.
This reminds me (and I’m sure you of all people would appreciate a good old fashioned derail), I finally looked into this Ridiculous Menace stuff you link in your signature, pretty funny stuff, Frink. Especially liked the reworking of the podrace to have Anakin racing on his own, and the music choice knocked that out of the park. Bravo.
In all fairness, I’ve read articles about the Despecialized Editions which were far worse than the WSJ stab at it. The guy definitely got too hung up on the term DVD (I mean, my honest response just the first sentence in, “um… no, I doubt there were many people celebrating the DVD release of TFA so much as they might the BD or shudder Digital releases”), going on to undersell what it means for something to be produced for “modern TVs and sound systems”, which really quite cheapens the point of Harmy’s work.
On an even brighter side, at least now we know that, according to Lucasfilm, the notion that the GOUT looks like crap is false, so we can all breathe a sigh of relief.
BTW, I didn’t realize before now that Adywan is disabled, also I don’t see what this article did to make mentioning that even relevant. “He’s disabled, so of course he likes to mess with Star Wars… just imagine what Lucas could accomplish if he was disabled.” If that’s not the point, then do tell me what it was.
Also, I bet Frink’s dining room table has looked like a swampland far longer than Adywan’s.

Search your feelings. Obi-wan never told you what happened to your father.

You didn’t realize it because it’s not true. The writer made it relevant for no reason.

Thank you! I hope you enjoy the second one (and third once it’s done.)

My dining room table is covered with little girls’ artwork.
