It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire.
During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire’s ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet.
Or they’re working on a restoration but had other priorities (rebooting the series); ran into snags; waiting for the anniversary, etc. Could be anything, or what you suggested. The distributors cut though is so small I’d think it’d be better for Disney to release it before IX is released while interest is still higher and sales could be maximized.
I wish there was a way to resurrect Walt Disney and put him back in charge of the company. Maybe then the OOT (not to mention all the classic animated Disney films) would get the proper restorations they deserve.
Still waiting for the Black Cauldron to hit blu-ray

I use truth-based binary ranking system. Film is either good or shit.
Only a Sith speaks in absolutes.
Particularly good considering I’m inebriated
And I’m a millennial!!!
Star wars, empire, tfa, Jedi. Everyone else is wrong
I want one, and I don’t even like pressed coffee.

Edit: and I’m not even into merchandizing at all. But there is just something about how R2’s practically unaltered form fits the function of the thing perfectly that makes it desirable.
This was easier. I only had to click two buttons. Refuting your argument wasn’t worth any more effort than that.
^Lol.
If only LOC had accepted the '97 print when it was offered…

Yeah, a lot of it felt incomplete. As if it were one installment of 20 or something.
From his father, I guess.
No, he heard it from your son!
What?! What?!
Mom, what’d I do mom?!
lol no harm no foul
Looks like Comcast’s people screwed up some labeling. According to the guide, Empire is on three times in a row after the prequels.
It’s to wash the taste of Prequel out of your mouth.
Did it take you two hours and 12 minutes to write that reply lol.
Edit: beaten to it by mala. Embarrassing
It’s zoomed in, just like the vast majority of hdtv broadcasts of movies that are native 2.35:1.
Sometimes you’ll see a letterboxed presentation, like how Spike is showing Dark Knight Rises, but this tends to be the exception rather than the rule.
I don’t understand why this remains the case, especially in the age of 50+ inch TVs becoming more and more common. I mean, on my 32" set, 15" laptop, and hell, even my 10" iPad, I would never prefer to watch a movie like that.
The Phantom Menace also assumes you like to watch bad movies.
Boring, not bad. If it was just bad it could still be entertaining.
Por qué no los dos?
I use an 11-point scale in base 8.
Using decimals is pointless and stupid. If you want more resolution, use a scale with range 100. It saves you typing pointless dots.
The 0 - 100 system disgusts me.
Then why are you using it?
I don’t use that shit. I use the 0 - 10 system with decimals.
…which is a 0-100 system.
Sorry to break it to you but he’s right…
Are you related to him or something?
Either that or he’s a normal American moviegoer.
I’ve said this elsewhere, but with njvc’s custom Blu-ray project featuring Despecialized, I’m not sure I care about an official original release any more. I don’t see how it could compete.
There’s the principle.
Eh. I’m not a fan of Spaceballs, either, my love of Daphne Zuniga notwithstanding.
That I can sympathise with, though I do like it. But I also recall Frink calling Blazing Saddles overrated. That just doesn’t float.
Just finished watching TFA again. I think this was the sixth time. The first five times I liked it more and more each time. This time, I found myself fulling enjoying every second and excitedly anticipating every upcoming moment. I really, really love this film 😃
I’ve struggled with my “personal ranking” since this came out, but I’ve been reluctant to place it above ROTJ because o nostalgia, I guess. But after reading the review I just wrote above, and considering that there are several sequences in Jedi during which I literally roll my eyes, I think I have to place TFA immediately behind Star Wars and Empire. Jedi is now #4, despite the fact that some of my favorite sequences in the saga, those in the throne room, are in it.
All movies are super long in rough cut. Spaceballs is supposed to have been almost two and a half hours.
Which would be about 120 minutes too long.
I’ve never understood why some on this forum seem to despise you, but on second thought, your apparent disdain for Mel Brooks may be reason enough 😛
This is actually interesting though. He may not think the OOT is coming out, doesn’t mean he likes the constant revision: https://mobile.twitter.com/pablohidalgo/status/777605840891064320
