Raiders, Dial of Destiny, Last Crusade, Temple of Doom, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

My favourite is Lion in Winter. Stellar cast, incredible script. It’s Christmas just as I remember it.

You could alter the one exchange between Anakin and Palpatine in TPM to something like:

“And YOU, young Skywalker, maybe we can do something about freeing your mother.”

He freed her…forever😬

Yeah but what about the blue milk?😁

Woah there, Bingo, only one blue topic at a time!! 😄

All I can say is Mrs Wan is very progressive letting Ady work on all these blue movies.

Yeah but what about the blue milk?😁

Forgive me if this was fixed first time round but is the notorious blue milk hand switch repairable? For those unfamiliar with when it’s when Owen is telling Luke to take Artoo into Anchorhead to have his memory erased. Once you see it you can’t unsee it but I’m not sure how it could be fixed.

In ANH when we see Vader toe Ben’s empty robes we see Ben”s ghost sneaking away in the background but he is totally nude. Every time we see a Force ghost in the the rest of the films they are similarly nude.

Even US Presidents need some Bubbalovin’.

The rich blue sky looks better, though I understand the reasoning behind having a slightly greenish sky’s on a planet of yellow and orange sand but it’s not a science fiction film so aesthetics are a higher priority.

I’ve never seen a version with a greenish sky. The official blu-ray looks grey and Ady’s looks blue.

I’m seeing a pale greenish tint to the sky in the Blu-ray version which might be justified as particulates in the atmosphere but doesn’t look anywhere near as good as Adywan’s rich blue. And as I say Star Wars isn’t Science Fiction.

The rich blue sky looks better, though I understand the reasoning behind having a slightly greenish sky’s on a planet of yellow and orange sand but it’s not a science fiction film so aesthetics are a higher priority. Loved how you have reflipped and reframed Threepio. I noticed this from the original ANH:R but just adding the blue eye light to Artoo makes him more Artoo. Everything looks sharper. The Battle droid cameo is as subtle as it originally was. Hopefully you will manage to sneak at least one Rogue One style Imperial battledroid onto the Death Star.

Yesterday I saw Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein (another film I’m a very tiny blurry cog in). It’s not 100% faithfull to the book but it is still mesmerising. On set the creature design didn’t look like much but earlier in the film the creature has no hair and he looks like a beautiful classical statue shattered and reconstructed by a museum. The film has the appropriate emotional weight. Even if some of my favourite aspects of the book are missing. Well worth a watch.

She also had a guest appearance in Babylon 5 but didn’t have scenes with Bill Mummy who played Will in Lost in Space.

The last movie I saw was I Swear(2025) I have to declare an interest or two here. First of all I was a supporting artist on this one. Though my contribution is probably trimmed to a couple of nanoseconds. The other is I have Tourettes myself so there was the strange situation where lead actor Robert Aramayo was doing a fine job of playing a man from Glasgow with a tic disorder and doing a great job making the tics look authentic, in the same room as myself playing a man from Glasgow without a tic disorder and hopefully doing a great job repressing my urge to tic.

The film is a slightly reordered and condensed telling of local hero John Davidson. Starting with his childhood, the onset of his illness and the events of his life with a still much misunderstood neurological condition. If it’s playing near you it’s well worth a watch.

The John Williams and Jerry Goldsmith of poster artists Drew Struzan he famously didn’t do the first Raiders poster btw…his was better in my opinion.

John Grant held my hand last week. He held other people’s hands too but that was him covering his obvious shyness.

Looks like this time it’s happening. https://kotaku.com/star-wars-original-theatrical-cut-4k-restoration-leaks-screenshot-disney-2027-2000638887

Use really bad digital face replacement and CGI models to make all force users in the original and sequel trilogies as boingy as the ones in the prequels. Have Luke triple somersault up the stairs to confront Vader at Bespin. Have Yoda bounce around like a ping pong ball training Luke on Dagobah. Have Ben swipe at Vader while upside down in a mid air bounce. Have Kylo Ren engage Snoke’s red guards in a glow stick disco dance. To emphasize these changes add boing noises to all nine episodes and the spin offs and television shows.BOING!!!

Replace Lapti Nek with footage from Captain EO so that Michael Jackson can be in a Star Wars movie.

Xerox PARC computer laboratory opens in Palo Alto, California, United States

Dargo off Farscape.

Replace all the characters played by puppets with actors in suits and all the actors with CGI and all the CGI with puppets.

Any thoughts on how to make the battle droids less silly or better still actually sinister? They look skeletal maybe having them scream machine code like the skeleton warriors in Jason and the Argonauts as they charge into battle would be unnerving. Or maybe have their eyes change as they go into attack mode.

Surprisingly great compared to the one back in 70’s behind the scenes. If they used this, I’d have no objection. Though I still don’t understand the link between this and “Darth Farmer”. It SORT OF, I express the words SORT OF reminds me of either the Emperor or the Horned King or a character you’d hear from The Lord of the Rings.

As I said, in British English a West Country (not Scottish 😁) accent is associated with agriculture, much like a Southern US accent might. That’s how the nickname stuck.
