What they mean by "original trilogy" is actually "original vision trilogy." *snicker*

If you follow the feed, you'll find out that it's in response to someone claiming the box art looked like Lucas gave his kids crayons and told them to do it.
Not an entirely unfair evaluation.
(And, contra Ms. Lucas, I too will not be purchasing the BluRay set.)
Y'got your trifocals on backwards, Frink? That's obviously Luke conducting the orchestra...
Specifically, will they be fixed?

Your sarcasm detector isn't working Fink, because not everyone is entirely incapable of making a serious post.
I don't blame him for ignoring some of you when you act like jerks all the time and make fun of him for no reason.
That's reasonable, but he didn't just ignore those of us who argued with him; he ignored droves of people whom he'd never even crossed paths with! You've got to admit, that's a little odd...

Your mom gets a little penile now and then.
Don't mind Frink; he gets a little senile now and again.
Geeze, Frink, get yourself a hearing aid for crying out loud. He said:
?
Somehow I feel nerves may have been hit...
Reading too much into thing, I hope?
Probably that all hope for the future, like the OOT, is forever lost.

Dear hot.like.C3PX,
Rumor has it a new person by the name of CP3S has been running around the forums, pretending to be you. He's even having sex with my mom* just like you used to*.
To be fair, that could apply to any number of strange men. Doesn't really narrow it down much...

I guess we'll have to wait for 20 years and see if he is able to turn the PT into something more people will enjoy :)
I'm ahead of that schedule ;-)
It's a good thing, too. In 20 years, you'll have succumbed to extreme old age and turned in your dinner pail, so to speak...
It is now the Tex Murphy discussion thread.
Ah. Sorry, misunderstood the intent. My bad...
But...you're linking to another discussion topic on this very site. Why would we need to discuss it here?
Possibly of interest:

The news about us filming The Hobbit at 48 frames per second generated a lot of comments. Of course, it's impossible to show you what 48 fps actually looks like outside of a movie cinema, but there were several interesting and insightful questions raised.
We will be completing a "normal" 24 frames per second version—in both digital and 35mm film prints. If we are able to get the Hobbit projected at 48 fps in selected cinemas, there will still be normal-looking 24 fps versions available in cinemas everywhere.
Converting a film shot at 48 fps down to 24 fps is not a hugely difficult process, but it requires testing to achieve the best results. Some of this involves digital processes during post-production. We are also shooting the film a slightly different way, which is a question several of you asked. Normally you shoot a movie with a 180-degree shutter angle. Changing the shutter angle affects the amount of motion blur captured during movement. Reducing the shutter angle gives you the stroby (or jerky) "Saving Private Ryan" look.
However, we're going the other way, shooting at 48 fps with a 270 degree shutter angle. This gives the 48 fps a lovely silky look, and creates a very pleasing look at 24 fps as well. In fact, our DP, Andrew Lesnie, and I prefer the look of 24 fps when it comes from a 48 fps master.
More soon ....
Cheers,
Peter J
Yet you had time to type a post about it?
Nah, Frinky makes that old geezer look like a tender spring chicken...

That's way funnier than it sounded in writing, nice job greeny
I agree. I didn't think it sounded good when I read it, but it ended up very funny. And I can see that in the edit :-)
Get a room, you two!

I didn't like Serenity at all. I've seen some of Firefly and liked it but the movie was a big disappointment. It fell into the same trap that most Joss Whedon projects do, "Let's kill off a bunch of the popular characters for the heck of it!" I could accept losing one or two but he killed almost the entire cast in that movie! So to see that film (people should not count that vote as vote for the show as well) win out over the Empire Strikes Back is truly disappointing.
Come again? Of the main cast, only two characters (Shepherd Book and Wash) were killed off in Serenity. Everyone else (Mal, Zoe, Jayne, Inara, Kaylee, Simon, and River) live to fight another day. So how does two out of nine amount to "almost the entire cast"?
ur wrong generalfrievos, i think the colars will be fixed
Thanks for all the well-wishes, guys. Hospital discharge went well, and the acclimation process has begun. Let the sleepless nights commence!
(BTW, did anyone notice that "Weird Al's" new album finally got a release date? And it's not very far off, either!)
I'm at the hospital right now. My wife just gave birth to our second son a few hours ago. So far, he seems healthy and happy (at least as happy as can be expected under the circumstances). W00t!
