Apparently you have x-ray vision.

I know, I see posts from a person who I’ve ignored.

It’s cool, I like when people who aren’t making sense ignore me.

Good for you.

Unfortunately, no one can ignore anyone anymore.

It’s on Jay’s fix list… One can only hope the feature will come back.

Yeah, just imagine we would need to ignore people by just not constantly responding to them, unthinkable!

The fact that he can’t ignore me right now gives me such joy.

So I guess Kylo Ren has a … wait for it… cruciform sword.

TIL that Darth Plagueis’ name is probably a ref to Milton’s Paradise Lost (the “Debate in Hell” in Book 2, to be precise). And this from the same guy that brought us Jar Jar Binks.

Well, Ted Cruz (please no one start a political debate) has stated that Han indeed shot first. We have an American presidential candidate on our side, along with the entire cast of the Force Awakens

That was actually a really good video. Much more than the silly title suggests. Phill Tippet is amazing.
Thanks for posting!

Wow, Tippet’s LSD trip with his cat Brian should be a short-film.

I’d honestly watch a surrealist film about a man and his cat making a million year long journey to the centre of the earth to a world made entirely of molecules. That sounds awesome.

Star Wars is Surrealism, not Science Fiction (essay)

I thought that was 2001: A Space Odyssey?

The official website used a frame from the unaltered version of Star Wars. It’s cropped and weird looking, but it’s not from the GOUT or the Special Edition.

There are at least a dozen “ifs” between this frame showing up on the SW site and confirmation of an upcoming official release of the OOT, but the color in that doesn’t look like the SE or any of the approximations of the “authentic” theatrical colors it the preservations. If this is indicative of anything at all, I wonder if it’s indicative of brand new color timing. I think this opinion puts me in a minority here, but I’d like an OOT blu-ray to look like a really good blu-ray rather than a slavish recreation of a late 70s theater experience, so the idea excites me. I dislike the current blu-ray colors because they’re ugly, not because they’re inaccurate.
