Well, there are "the usual" channels.

And if you are not familiar with/want to avoid the usual channels, you are in luck, I just did a youtube search, and somebody posted the whole thing.

The fat ass without a shirt on is a moron.

I'm not from the uk but seriously this guy is a fucking twat.

 

Yeah lets start our show with a fatass in a loincloth pretending to be Jabba, shuts off tv. lol.

As usual I probably stand alone in my opinion but I don't care. I'm sorry, but this was freaking BRILLIANT. The opening Jabba scene he did was freaking hilarious. Obnoxious as hell, no question. But that's what got him alot of the interviews. LOVED the way Carrie opened up to him, and the candor with which we heard about the affairs, fights, and resentments FIRSTHAND, from the stars themselves.

Is it just me? These were the best darned interviews I've seen with the cast members to date. I can't believe this guy got all of these guys (and gal) to talk to him, and so openly!

I LOVED IT.

my 2 cents.

Yes but he's funny.

Unlike Alan Carr, who is a twat.

I agree with jukeboxjoey 100%, these were the best interviews with the SW cast I have ever seen. They were very different, less professional, and more honest. Very sorry we didn't get one from Mark of Harrison. And I'd still wish full transcripts of these interviews were availible, it is very obvious they cut quite a lot from each of them. Love to see/read them in their entirety.

I thought it was pretty funny Warick went along with the hottube thing, that has got to be one of the weirdest interviews I have ever seen. And I really like that we got to see inside Carrie's house, that was amazing.

By not watching this sky, you are missing out on a lot. When I first started watching it I wasn't sure what to think either, but the obnoxiousness of it pays off in the long run, and you'll get use to it after watching it for a bit.

Bring Back Star Wars.  they should do a show called "let it die" featuring Indiana Jones and Star Wars.  A Merciful death when the series meant something instead of just being a cash cow for an overweight aging hack.  Star Wars died in 1983 and Indiana Jones in 1989.  They shall be remembered, but no Zombie revivals to lag on into suckdom were needed.  NO crazed usage of cgi and videogame reject cutscenes are needed either.

If Lucas excuses for this and the poor writing were because of simple budgetry constraints because he is an Independant film maker outside of the studio system, i say they should never have been made if they were meant to suck from day 1 when he first put pencil to paper on nov 1 1994.

Watch the show before you piss on it, Bring Back Star Wars is all about the original trilogy. The idea behind it is to meet the original cast and to talk them into attending a reunion party. It is all about the good bits of Star Wars. If nothing of Star Wars was made after 1983, this documentary would be exactly the same as it is now.

It's good stuff sky, trust me, I am usually as pessimistic as you are about anything new with the name "Star Wars" on it.

Man I never post anywhere but the Adywan and HD Threads, but after reading your rant on the Clone Wars Thread and now this...Man you just need to move on, quit acting like a prick and just fast forward through all the added cgi in the GOUT DVDs, Christ your being a baby. I wouldn't care so much if you had restricted this childish ranting to a few posts, but every other thread I see about new things Star Wars one of your hissy fits turn up. Just relax and go talk in the OOT Threads and eat out of your Luke Skywalker PEZ dispenser, I mean it, you need to calm your nerves.

EDIT: By the way those interviews are like no other, if I could rip them from Youtube and burn them on a DVD I would.

Are you telling me you cannot honestly admit that the prequels sucked in comparison to the oot?

Anybody i know that even kinda liked the prequels admits this, most of my family and friends included.

Only TFN Lucas apologists think the prequels were better than the originals, please tell me do you drink the tfn Lucas is a god who can do no wrong kool aide?

LOL

Crystal Skull was shit also and i thankfully only saw it in theaters once.  I saw Last Crusade in theaters twice and to this day along with Raiders it is one of my favorite films of all time.  I typically pretend temple of doom never happened but Crystal Skull was worse than temple of doom.  I guess 2 out of 4 is not bad, but 2 out of 6 or 3 out of 6 for star wars, give me a break.  Half the movies or more sucked.  There was no reason to go back and ruin the old good ones to fit the new bad ones.

If Lucas was still at the height of his powers like in 1977 or 1980 then he should have done star wars episode 7.  Luke was a character we could all root for i could not give a shit less about Gayden Skystalker whiny emo queer.  Obi Wan left him to burn on mustafar and good riddance.

If it was Lucas point that we would care for Anakin and feel sorry for him he failed miserably.  But if his point was to make us hate anakin and Vader and root for Luke to Murder him in the originals he succeded.  I'm sure that if Luke knew Vader mudered his mother he would have cut him down on the death star II because he would deserve it, such a selfish prick and muderor of small children in the hundreds does not deserve redemption.

Anakin could have killed Palpatine and brought justice to the Republic, done his duty as a jedi and been a husband to padme and a father to his children.  Instead he decided to be a no good douchebag.

There is something really sick about Lucas removing Luke as the Hero and replacing Him with Vader as the hero for all six movies.  That is about as nuts as somebody making Six films with Hitler as the hero.

You'd like it, Sky. I mean, I'm like you in that I'm not interested in anything related to the PT, and I enjoyed it because it has to do only with the OT actors/characters. The interviews are some of the most candid I've ever seen.

It has since been removed from youtube due to some sort of terms of use violation?

Lucasfilms did not have it removed for copyright purposes? maybe that UK station did.

There's still a different version up in 10 parts as of yesterday, but it's missing big chunks between segments.

I laughed hysterically at a lot of things in the show.  The best part about it really is Justin's sincere fan enthusiasm.  Yeah, he acts like a total idiot... but in a way that makes you love the guy.  Humor gets a little crass sometimes, but "that's what the kids like these days"...

You'd be skipping through most of the film. :-/  I'd rather watch the GOUT, flaws and all.

Or, he could just not watch the pieces of shit at all. Which is what he already does.
