All this pointless jackoffery is just to make it more of a special event when the originals finally come out, right? RIGHT?

Wait, now we're angry that they are making more changes? Boy, I can't keep up with what is an acceptable change and what isn't.
People are criticizing what LFL considers important and what they don't. It ain't science.

Would enjoy seeing it, but I've been banned. Interesting, because I've never even visited the site before!
Hold the phone, they have supposed blu-ray clips and wicket digitally blinks in the JEDI sample. Is this for real?
I'm going to print a few on plain paper and scotch tape them around, like a lost pet flyer. I live in L.A. so I'll put some outside FOX.
It's perfect. And I think you can buy sticker paper for your printer.

It's just that the OT is viewed as the past, and only desired by a niche market. The dollar signs are not large enough.
And yet we have the broadly appealing new documentary THE SECRET LIFE OF EDITH WHARTON for the Young Indiana Jones dvd!
(kids excitedly perusing Young Indy box set extras on release day)
"Is it on there??"
"It is!" (high five)

Surely with the few million it would take to remaster the theatrical versions
I don't even think it would cost that much. Especially EMPIRE and JEDI, both of which had a fraction of the theatrical run that the first movie did, and can be no more difficult than any other early 80s hit, like Firefox or Trading Places. As for Star Wars, maybe as a base we can look to Don May, who wants to do an ultimate blu-ray transfer of Night of the Living Dead and says he needs 350 thousand to do it.
It is, but it makes about as much sense.
These are the only films that I probably go back and listen to and know that and making sure that all the right elements are there, because if something is just slightly off, my childhood DNA screams “wrong!”.
How does your childhood DNA feel about giant cartoon animals from the '90s?
The next stop was the forest location, maybe they just packed up everything that was making the trip from London to California. Those kind of movies were like a traveling circus.
It's funny how old movies are at the mercy of a handful of guys and their good/bad taste. (This reminds me of the SUPERMAN dvd, when the guy who did the new mix said if you ever heard the '78 mix it would be SO horrible you would feel like your ears were being attacked by wolves. Then when they included both mixes a few years later, nobody anywhere felt that way.)

I get the impression that at LFL, the movies are seen as a sort of sandbox that everyone gets to play in once every few years. What a warped view of classic cinema.
That insulated, tone-deaf, out-of-touch bubble seems to grow stronger every year. It's like GL is a home-school kid, and others that stay there end up that way too.
So, some of this stuff looks different some of it looks the same, could be the blus but maybe not? I can't follow this converstion.
Hmm, those shots on the new site do look different and better to me.
I like that. Could put it on those flyers that you stick up around town, the ones that have little tear-off tabs at the bottom, like those ones you see offering drum lessons or whatever. (but with the savestawars address instead of a phone number)
We need to get this guy on milk cartons:

The entire machine runs on a greater-than-normal devotion to a movie. So it's crazy for anyone at LFL to be bothered by any of this.
What about sticking the stickers (with a simple bold graphic) to telephone poles etc. (preferably near a best buy) like this thing:

It's misdemeanor vandalism. But I am in favor of picketing the stores dressed as the deleted Wolfman from the cantina. (I think that guy should be our emblem/mascot)
I know they flew people out there to get soft, lightweight coverage but the way the original versions issue is danced around wouldn't be acceptable to a high school newspaper reporter.It's amazing how scared grown adults are to really pursue that question after all these years. I wish they'd stop treating LFL with such reverence, it's just a company selling stuff, it's not royalty.
Oh yeah, it chewed up the stars and the lasers. Somebody involved in the blu-ray must have noticed that by now right?
"Here is an article about the blu-rays with pictures to illustrate what is on them. Except they are not from them. Why would you think that? "
Ok, maybe this is a dumb question, does this mean those promotional clips (with the german dialogue) that have been popping up lately aren't from the actual blu-ray?
