I don’t think Poe really survived the crash. I think the Poe we after the crash is some sort of clone or something like that, sent by the First Order to spy on the resistance.

Wait what.

Good theory. I like it.

Sorry can’t resist posting here.

1. The Terminator five balls (perfect low budget film with a perfect ending).
2. Terminator Salvation 2 Balls. Anton Yelchin is brilliant as Reese and if the film hadn’t been panic edited at the last minute it might have been okay and even worthy of an extra ball.
3. Terminator 3 Rise of the Machines 1 Ball, Lots of silliness which when removed leaves a short movie but it at least restores the bleak ending of the original film.
4. Terminator 2 Judgement Day. half a ball. Has some good innovative special effects but is an otherwise pointless movie that undermines the original film in every way. The slow monologues, the cheesy humour, the WTF ending. The extended version is a bit better but the theatrical film has no reason to exist just like all the sequels really.

Not seen the most recent film, I really can’t be bothered anymore.

Rather liked the Sarah Connor Chronicles and would place it somewhere in the 3.5 balls mark.

Forgive the Bumpage I was hoping to show this to someone by Monday.
++JEDIT++ YouTube’s now showing this again, not sure what happened but nice to be able to direct people to it again.
++REJEDIT++ what seems to have happened here is a partial take down. The Flash version is still up but the HTML5 version of the clip and the full edit are down… Weird.

Just in case it hasn’t been mentioned… any Editors could remove from the end credits the mention of the UK Chancellor - George Osbourne - from the film. Someone who cuts the benefits for the sick, disabled and mentally ill, cuts the NHS and other emergency services, cuts the HRMC (tax service) so it’s no longer fit to collect taxes or challenge big business avoiding paying their fair share, whilst the rest of us in the UK face even more cuts doesn’t really deserve to be in the film credits - even if he did give tax breaks to Disney.

Rant over. Sorry.

^ THIS comrade 😄

I hate the end credits. Our evil Chancellor gets a mention FFS. The End Credits were the worst part of the movie.

And SSWR’s videos all went with him to where they went. I wish they would all come back.

Mortality is a really sucky thing. Lots of it about too.

Everyone was. Other than isolated clips this and this similarly anticipated edit : http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/SW-Episode-III-Reign-of-the-Dark-Side/id/11343 never was posted as even a rough cut… just really interesting clips.

The Cutter did a re-edit of the TFA trailer with original John Williams music relatively recently so he is still around bob helped Frink out with some effects shots on his Ricdiculous edits. Not heard much from him recently.

Never heard anything about edits Angel/Vaderios was reportedly working on either.

Shame really.

All really talented guys, great ideas.

Annie Hall will win again 😄

1994 was a crappy year for me. My father had just died of cancer. My nephew died after a few days of life. I had a bit of a mental breakdown and dropped out of university and fell out with close friends.
Around that time I discovered a couple of movies made a few years before starring Alan Rickman.
One was Truly, Madly Deeply (1991) which really helped me through the grieving process and the other was Closet Land (1991) which was a truly horrific depiction of torture with hardly any gore at all which really informed my politics and helped me get my mojo back. Thanks for that Mr Rickman. I wonder how much closer to solutions to these horrid diseases if we stopped blowing each other up.

I’d touch Poe with my barge pole.

In the briefing I would also add someone question where they get the money to build these things and another ask why it has to be bigger each time and someone make a comment about Snoke’s midlife crisis and underwear size.

Vader was asleep through most of the trilogy.
Most of his lines were spoken by his Sith Lord alarm clock.

I think it’s about time someone reminded us of the forum rules before a moderator does.
As for something new to moan about has anyone mentioned how odd the crawl looked?
To me it seemed more yellow than usual and the stars were much brighter or was that just because it wasn’t some crappy blu-ray transfer? 😄

I will deliver
You know I’m a forgiver

It’s really getting a bit bitchy on this thread, as a non-moderator/reader/contributor could I all just dial it back a tad.

That goes there : http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/The-Unofficial-Complete-REVISITED-SAGA-Ideas-and-Random-Discussion-Thread/id/14610

I explained earlier that getting around the Death Star wouldn’t be that restrictive.
If you could take away the obvious barriers to making one (the ones they ignored in the very silly Total Recall remake) a gravity train would go pole to pole through the Earth in about 40mins.
The Death Star has lots of elevators and lifts which could act in the same way, it’s not the size of the Earth and it exists in a universe where artificial gravity is cheap enough for smugglers to have.
The same would probably be true of the base.

I think there are people on these boards who would make a great film with a fraction of the money.

Maybe Starkiller base could be a Republic weapon that has been seised by the forces of the First Order and Leia knows what it’s capable of and maybe a bit ashamed.
Most of that would have to be established in the opening crawl though.
It would explain why the Resistance know exactly how it works without having to go through the secret data tapes stuff.

I can’t imagine it was a very happy celebration.

It’s a good album and a classy exit. Like Angus Scrimm who also 'died" Dave always comes back.

A little thing like death wouldn’t stop that.

I’m going to put the Laughing Gnome on now 😃

That’s why I think it would be interesting to do a taste test on his directorial skills.

Tell people they are watching a Lucas film when they aren’t and then tell them they aren’t when they are (like Red Tails).

I’d just drop the using a star thing. It’s a bit like Daffy Duck blowing his head off.
There would be limits on how many times you could do it.
Having a weapon that crushed stars would be a twist on the Death Star. So make a sun crusher.
