George made a picture book

"Each shot is designed to go opposite of the other shot".

And again, it's like poetry, it's sort of, they rhyme.

So, a new book came out and we learned so much, and it is called, “Anguilosaurus, Killer of the Living”.

George, I was just wondering why the first half of your homework was so much more carefully done than the second. Did you get extra help at home with that part?

You'd think at one frame at a time he would spot some of the crapness he has added.

It's laughable, and also sad, how many times he claimed through the years that he was letting Star Wars go, yet it really is his sole identity.  He can't seem to function away from it.

His favorite words are "design" and "ultimately". He ultimately designed it this way.

He really cares about Star Wars... which may not necessarily be a good thing.

Gosh, what a big boy George is! He took pictures from his movies and put them in a book ALL BY HIMSELF! I bet I could never do that.

Well, Lucas has always been *kind of* pretentious, but this is new even for him!

I mean, there's a book out there called Complete Locations which is basically this, but I think I only paid 30$ for that. Asking 10,000$ for what amounts to high-quality stills printed onto a page of paper? No thank you...

No kidding. It's a lot cheaper just to make your own (and you have the freedom to ignore the special edition and the prequels).

Made by a ridiculous wealthy man for the ridiculous wealthy. It was never aimed at us.

True, but that can't stop us upper-middle-classers from remarking at how ridiculous it is that somebody would opt to pay for this, no matter the thickness of his pockets.

If I had money to throw around like Lucas, I'd be using it to build my own version of the Winchester Mystery House or the house the townsfolk of Springfield built for Flanders in "Hurricane Neddy", not a lame-o picture book.

The Winchester House is a very fitting analogy to Lucas and Star Wars.

But he donated the proceeds to charity as far as i remember for those who got the limited signed version.

People act like Lucas a guy who was once worth approx 6 billion dollars needed the money from this book.  Yeah sure,lol.

The idea probably came from the George  Lucas selects that hyperspace used to have.

He would select a frame from the movies as he shot them i think Episode II and III and then the frames were posted.

I just picked up the cheaper version of this because I used a coupon. Ended up being $45 shipped. It's heavy as hell and well put together. The quality, however, is awful. It even mentions on the last page that the highest quality available was 1920x817 so the quality was limited to that.
Awful and sad, for the OT and TPM.

Whoa, whoa, whoa... Are you telling me the films' best current master has an upper limit of 1080p anamorphic?

If so, at least my new fan edits won't be going out of date anytime soon.

My stance on revising fan edits.

Correct. As far as we know, there is no master (for the film-based movies) above 1080p at the moment.

We have text proof that the films are limited to 1080p?! Can you post a picture of this?
