Wow, first I heard Bradley Cooper mention that he'd seen him and James Cameron on the red carpet, but now the show has started and George is literally at the front of the closest table to the microphone!
I hope he listened very carefully to Scorsese's fantastic speech.

It would be nice to think so wouldn't it? (Absolutely loooooove the fact that Marty mentioned the restored Paths of Glory!!)
I was wondering about GL during the awards. I've never really seen George at any of the big Black Tie events before.

If he didn't, perhaps one of his chins did.
Lucas belongs to the same preservation board Scorcese was a co founder of. Very ironic considering star wars may be lost forever to time once the negative has rotted to vinegar. But he has it in 1080p with bad cgi video game effects and garish colors, good enough right? LOL.

The Golden Globes made a joke of themselves with awards for Cameron's big gimmick-fest.
Wow, just wrote out several paragraphs and then accidentally closed the tab, blast. Must remap the mouse pad and left/right clickers at some point.
Anyway, the gist of what I was writing is this:
Do you think Lucas' reasoning for leaving the SE at 1080 comes from the fact that the prequels' effects were mostly rendered at only 2K (if even that)?
Maybe it's just built-in obsolescence. Good enough for the time being, but with the potential to be dressed up in new clothes and trotted around like it's a new thing. Like the corpse in Weekend at Bernie's.
I would love it if Scorsese's speech made a dent in Lucas' anti-original stand. But he probably thinks his creative vision is more important, as if that's why the movies were changed in the first place. And these days a lot of fans will back him up, claiming their support for the artist. Meanwhile, they aren't out there preaching that line every time someone wants the original cut of The Warriors or Last of the Mohicans. Because they don't actually care about the artist's vision, they're just a bunch of butthurt warsies who hate it when Lucas and their favorite toys are criticized.
