Becasue, like most of Star Wars, it is cheasy, cliche, obvious dialogue. I say leave all of it in like that, as it makes it what it was supposed to be: an homage to the serials from the 30's, which were cheasy, cliche, and obvious.

And then, of course, there would really be no point in having eternal life.

Anyway, if Indy's eternal life ceased to be once he passed the seal, what about Henry's wound| Shouldn't it have reopened causing him to die?


Well, I suppose Lucas' explanation for that would be that it was "the cup of Christ," as they say, and thus, it would still heal someone, and its effects would remain even if they passed the seal, while eternal life would merely be something extra.

I agree, HotRod. It reminds me, the other day I was reading one of the sillyest ideas for a thread yet on the INDb. Some idiot had created a "Star Wars vs. 2001" thread.

So, I was reading the comments, which were coming from non-SW fans, but from people who had seen all of the films. They mostly said that the Star Wars films are great fun, but that NONE of them are all-around great works of cinema. Now, I'm so used to reading only the comments of SW fans on SW, that it was sort of refreshing to read an outsider's opinion on SW. But it was k

What's the situation with Lucas saying he "forgot" to insert Temuerra Morrison's voice into the OT?

I heard it mentioned a while back that Lucas said in an interview, that for the 2004 DVDs, he simply forgot to overdub the stormtrooppers in the OT with Temuerra Morridon's voice and would do it for the final versions. Does anyone have any information on this or a link to the article about it?

Yeah man, I feel the same. It's all about the original 3 movies and that's it.


At least allow talk of the holiday special!

1. You loved Jake Lloyd in Phantom Menace - No. He's a child actor. Cut him some slack. Aubree Miller didn't do such a great job as Cindel in the Ewok films, either.
2. You think that George Lucas planned the entire backstory in the 70's, so you blame all the plotholes on the OT. - The plotholes were due to his poor decisions on the PT, not his backstory. He DID write the backstory, just not an extremely detailed one.
3. Your least favorite Star Wars movie is A New Hope. - Nope. I have no least favorite. It's all one movie.
4. You hope that Yoda goes cgi in the next version of Empire and Jedi - Yes!
5. You hope Palpatine and Yoda appear in the next version of Star Wars - Yes!
6. You'd love to have Duel of the Fates added to all the OT lightsaber fights - No way, that would sound silly.
7. The Padme/Anakin romance scenes did not make you laugh and the dialogue in those scenes was perfect. - No, I did not laugh. I found nothing funny abnout it. However, the dialogue in that scene was FAR from perfect. But it's the story that counts.
8. You LOVE seeing Hayden at the end of Jedi - Yes!
9. You think the PT would have existed even if the OT had never been made - No, as he could never have achieved the believable effects required for the PT in the 1970's. Plus, the PT was a backstory to his main story at that time.
10. You think that all three prequels will stand the test of time and be even more popular 20 years after their releases than the OT films were. - No. I think people will look at all six as a saga 20 years from now.
11. Jar Jar Binks did not bother you that much. In fact, you secretely like him. - He never bothered me, but he's not that ghreat of a character overall.
12. You think Dex's diner is way cooler than the Mos Eisley Cantina - They are on an equal level of coolness.
13. You wish Vader had a new love interest in the OT - That would suck, so no way. It would have absolutely no place in the OT.
14. The OT films look like they were made 50 years ago to you - No. They look like they were shot in 1977, 1980, and 1983. However, the DVDs make them look almost brand new.
15. You don't understand half the stuff that happens in Phantom Menace but you love it anyway - I DO undertsand ALL of what happens in TPM, and YES, I love it for the complicated plot that still manages to appeal to kids.

Jambe Davdar, just a quick question but, are your "BUILDING EMPIRE" and "BUILDING JEDI" projects now considered the "official" sequels to Deleted Magic?


They were certainly inspired by Deleted Magic, but they are not considered 'official' sequels. Ocpmovie hasn't even seen it yet (his disc is in the mail). I like to think of them as cousins
