Yeah, I fixed it. Sorry about that daddy. Same icons, hard to tell them apart. That's why I choose this Ewok, because I have never seen anybody else use it, and I wouldn't wan't to be mistaking other people for myself.

It is stupid that George decided he couldn't do any twist because we know what happens. Actually, we havent a clue what happens, we only know a few of the end results. We knew Padme died eventual, but it could have been years later when Leia was a girl for all we knew. We knew Anakin fell to the dark side, but we didn't know how. We knew Palpatine became emporer, but we didn't know how. And we knew Luke and Leia were twins and one ended up with the Lars family (but we didn't know how they were related) and we knew Leia ended up with the Organas, but we didn't know how. Only that Obi-Wan thought it important to hide them, but we didn't know how, or at least not the specifics of it. There was a ton of potential there. And seriously, if you are going to turn Obi-Wan into a blatant liar, he could have done it in a cool and more sly way. How would it have been if Obi-Wan would have actually had something going on with Padme. It could have changed his whole character in an interesting way (not saying I would have liked this, but it would added some dimension to the film). Or what if it actually turned out that Anakin was not the father, or that Luke and Leia were not twins after all. There could have been a lot of skeletons in a lot of peoples closets. There was plenty of room for plot twists. Even if they completely changed our conception of the old trilogy, it would have been worth it. I don't care if somebody is the biggest fan of the prequels, you cannot deny the fact that with the money they had to burn, and all the potential that they had, they no where near tapped into that potential.

So? It is still an American movie. We are talking culture here, not geography. Superman is still American, and so is Spidey, regardless of where they are filmed. They are still depicted in America. They are still American movies. It is retarded to say the American flag has no business in an American movie. Why ever not?

Ah, mine TPM is a R 2, I have never seen a R 1, that would explain the difference. My AOTC is a R 1 though, and I am pretty sure its titled STAR_WARS_EPISODE_II or something of the sort. Are there any AOTC discs named Mary?

My time would've been better spent staring at the floor, and it would've been easier on my spine, too.
I had to piss wicked bad for the last 40 minutes of the movie.

Yeah, I thought that same thing about the Dafoe painting. That was amazingly life like and would make a great conversation piece. I kept expecting the thing to start telling Harry to kill Spiderman, I was disappointed when they went with the mirror thing instead. Freaking mirror... anyway, a talking painting would have been pretty lame anyway, which means it would have been in sync with the rest of the movie.
Hey, that front row thing happened to me too. The theater I went to see it at is out in the middle of nowhere and rarely fills up, even during the first week. And they had the movie on seven different screens playing every 20 minutes to half an hour, so I hardly expected it to be so packed and ended up getting there a little late. When my friend and I walked in and saw the place packed we just turned around and snuck into the next room (which was almost entirely empty) and just talked for the next half hour. My question is why do they even put seats in the front row? How can you even watch the stupid thing that close to that massive screen. Ouch! I can't imagine anybody enjoying that, I am sure the only time anybody sits there is when the poor saps arrive late and get stuck. They ought to make the seats more fair, or give a huge discount for the people willing to sit in the front row or something. Nothing like paying threw the nose to see a crappy movie, then breaking your neck and burning out your eyes out in the process.

I don't think dunst is attractive either. She can be, but, especially in the Spider-man moives, they seem to capture her bad side. She always comes off looking kind of sick and skeletal. I think she looked a bit better in this one, but in the second one she looked terrible. The first one, she looked okay. So yeah, they could have done a lot better in casting...

Perhaps "okay" may not have been the best word, but come on, you have to admit while the former gets movies made about them making fun of them, and generally get laughed at and called loosers. The later is met with sympathy, and even at times with heroic admiration. While she may be met with pity by some and even contempt, who makes fun of her? And laughs at the very idea of a single 25 year old with 4 kids? Even a 20 year old virgin is often afraid to admit it out of fear of being made fun of.

Welcome to the forums kerr.
Good new, we are not too into noob bashing around here. A completely retarded, self bloating practice. But as far as thoughts, comments, and contructive criticism goes, we have plenty to offer. There is a lot of experience that hangs around these forms, and regardless of how many times a film has been edited, they are always happy to help out with advice for somebody who is trying to do something new with it. Your edit sounds interesting. I for one will be looking forward to seeing how it progresses.

Quality is nice, but I don't think it is all that necessary to enjoy a film. What it takes to enjoy it is appreciation of what it is, where it came from, and for who it was written. That is why I could enjoy 2001: A Space Oddysee just as well on a shiny new DVD as I could on an old VHS (if it is all I could get my hands on). That fact that my old Star Wars pan and scan VHS tapes look almost as good as the only DVD release they have gotten is pretty shameful though.
EDIT: And man are we off topic.

So Jay, you got a time frame for when fanedits.com will be up? By saying it will be a testing ground, do you mean it will be up and running before OT.com gets the upgrade?

His cameos in every Marvel movie was kind of cool at first when it was kind of a "Where's Waldo" thing, but it has got increasingly more blatant, this time they even gave him lines. It was a really long scene too, and so out of place. Next thing you know he is going to be narrarating the dang things...

However, if and when a special edition is released, and they don't have this stuff on there, I'm going to see if I can attempt to do an edit or something. Maybe even a behind-the-scenes thing like Building Empire. I've got the leaked trailer, loads of on-set pictures, press kit photos, interviews, Comicon roundtables, the whole shebang.
