Ah hah! Exactly as I suspected. MF is the kid upon whom J&SB extracted their vengence at the end of the film. Mystery solved.

I reckon he's smith, which is super-cool in my opinion, and if he's not, well, I'm wrong and it doesn't matter cos he's still a top fella as far as I can tell.

As I said it's better not to know (MF, don't tell us), but... MF = Star Wars Kid (heeey, who remembers?)

Just like in horror and suspense films, I feel less shown and said adds to sense of mystery. The reveal always tends to suck so MagFan should stay cloaked in mystery.

PS: ric- nice to see you outside of the 'Off Topic' forums!

PPS: For those who enjoy logic puzzles, if what MagFan has said to date is true then one might wonder why Kevin Smith would only be invited to the Ranch for a viewing through an anonymous email account on a 'fan' edit. Unless he got *two* invites... mmmwwhahahahahahaaaaaa.....

PS: I sometimes feel a bit intimidated by "PAL anamorphic DVD whatever" discussions and by EU discussions I would not be able to contribute. Also, I feel that some topics are old and have been discussed before. I do post here quite often though.

PPS: The restaurant scene in "Mrs Doubtfire" comes to mind.

So, Kev...I mean, Magnolia Fan (wink wink), you can PM me your true ID if you want to get it off your chest, your secret's safe with me. Even if I did tell everyone, noone would have any reason to believe me...

Nooooo! MF, don't! That's like a magician inviting a small child into his dressing room after the magic show and showing the secrets of his tricks while the child cries and screams "No more! No more! You are killing the magic in my heart!"

Well, if that's the case, then everyone at Skywalker Ranch knows. Just imagine Kevin Smith showing up wearing a Magnolia Fan nametag. So people know! Yes, they do!

Unless, as previously mentioned, the whole night ran like Mrs Doubtfire.


MagnoliaFan sits down with a large Coke as the lights go dim.

MagnoliaFan: Yeah!!

LucasFilm Employee: Hey have you seen Kevin Smith? He's meant to be here....

MagnoliaFan: Too much Coke! Can you excuse me while I go powder my nose?

MagnoliaFan runs out the door, throws on a trenchcoat and returns with popcorn.

LucasFilm Employee: Oh there you are, Kevin!

Kevin Smith: Is this seat free?

LucasFilm Employee: Sorry, some guy called... MagnetMan, I think... is sitting here. Actually he should be back now.

Kevin Smith: Oh! How rude of me! Eating this popcorn in front of you! I'll go buy you some too!

LucasFilm Employee: Don't trouble yourself, I'm fine.

Kevin Smith: No, no, I insist!

Kevin Smith runs out the door, whips of the coat and returns with two boxes of popcorn.

MagnoliaFan: I'm back, here's your popcorn.

LucasFilm Employee: Sorry? I thought you went to the toilet.

MagnoliaFan: Oh! Yes! That's what happened! Ummm... this guy in a trenchcoat gave me this popcorn, said it was for you...

LucasFilm Employee: Then where did he go? He's missing the best scene!

MagnoliaFan: Don't worry, I'll go look for him!

MagnoliaFan rushes out the door....

Yes, but what happens when the LucasFilm employee chokes on the popcorn? MagFan performs the heimlich but falls over into the trenchcoat hidden under the seat! Aaaaah! The jig is up, and Sally Field takes away his children!

Not before Kevin Smith throw an orange at that former James Bond guy.

MBJ, there have been rumors floating around for a few years, at least, that Kevin Smith is the real person behind the Phantom Editor/MagnoliaFan. It's been disputed, but not convincingly


Oh, it's been very convincingly disputed, people just choose not to believe it. Kevin Smith never edited a Star Wars movie. He LIKED Phantom Menace. He was also busy writing about 3 different movies, plus some comics, and prepping his own flicks at the time. Besides which, Mags here has already admitted he basically taught himself what he was doing on his edits, and improved from there. He's not someone who's already made 3 films by the time TPM came out.

MagnoliaFan is not Kevin Smith. He's just a guy who enjoys his geek references, and knew what he'd be getting into by making an edit available on the internet, and knew what the response would be, so he headed everyone off at the pass and named himself after an anonymous internet asshole from a movie about anonymous internet assholes I always thought that was, honestly, the best part about his edits.

The Kevin Smith fixation has always been a little weird to me. Just because he drops some jokes in a movie doesn't mean he's going to set aside time in his schedule to re-edit a movie he thought was fine as it was.

Former? The most recent Bond movie has been with Pierce Brosnan as the lead character. Has he declined to do anymore? But even if he has, wouldn't he still be the current Bond since no one has replaced him?

doesnt he still have one movie left in his contract? I think i heard that somewhere. And also, he did Mrs. Doubtfire before he was Bond

but on topic, i think this is currently one of the funnier threads on the board. You know MagFan (and maybe even Kevin Smith, if they are infact 2 different people ) are reading the last few posts laughing.

Nope, he initially signed a three picture contract (GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies and The World is Not Enough), with an option for a fourth film (Die Another Day).

The new Bond for Casino Royale still hasn't been announced though every week there is a new rumour!

He actually had the option to do another one and the studio wanted him, but he declined.
