The Anyone (formerly Vampire) Sharing Counting Thread (was The Count's Counting Threat).

Queen Katrina says :


The Concorde made life a lot easier, and I was the symbol of a Concorde crowd that had replaced the jet set. I flew on the Concorde so many times I knew the pilots. I knew their families. I could have flown the plane, except I would have wanted to do it naked, sprayed silver, in roller skates. I’ve lost count… COUNT!

The Amazing Criswell predicts :

Ladies and Gentlemen of the future.

It will be revealed to you in the space year 1987 that all media purporting to be fiction is in reality news from the real world outside of the virtual realm in which you live your tiny and insignificant lives.

In 2016 a talent show host and many times bankrupt real estate salesman will be the second president of the United States of America who is not Caucasian. He will be bright orange.

Blade Runner 2049. It’s really good. Teal and Tangerine is really annoying though and I would have trimmed one scene a little but other than that utterly amazing. Proof if proof be need be that any sequel to a Scott film needs a good writer more than it needs a good visualist. But the visuals are astounding too. I’d give it all the balls but demand the teal and tangerine ones back.

Info Wanted: Can anything possibly be improved in ESB?
Time

Not so much an improvement but something I would like to experience as a curio would be having the unused musical cues put back and properly timed to match the scenes.
Don’t get me wrong the opening of the Vader/Luke duel works really well without the score but the unused score for the scene is referenced in the score for the cave scene, this is emphasised by the angled shapes of the corridor at the back of the cave which is similar to the cloud city chamber later referenced in TFA so I’d like to see a version with those cues returned but it might not actually improve anything.

I don’t think I agree with any of the camo-trooper talk here. I mean we didn’t really see any sand camo-troopers on tatooine, or snow camo-troopers on Ho…oh, never mind.

But in all seriousness, why make any of them camoflouged just because you can. I mean, isn’t that the kind of stuff most of you guys here hate about the SE, that Lucas just added crap because he could. Updating SFX, and correcting continuity errors etc. is one thing, but adding stuff to the movie just to cram it in there is superfluous IMHO.

It turns out, some people are okay with “special editions” after all, as long as it’s them shoving in the extra CGI density.

The prime issue people have with the many official special editions are they are now the only versions we can legally buy on current standard equipment. The most current versions are the only official ones. The other problem is that as special editions all of them have problems like adding vulgar jarring visuals and creating new continuity problems. Reconstructions like Harmy’s address the first problem. Edits like Ady’s address the second.
