Interesting that that photo in that quality is easily accessible on Lucasfilm’s hard drives considering it was excised from the film in '97.
My favorite tradegy is Macbeth.
Saw the Clone Wars movie was on Netflix and decided it might be good for a laugh, so I turned it on. One thing that struck me is that the opening space battle shot looks practically just like ROTS and all the sets look almost as realistic as in the prequels. Basically what I’m getting at is, save the actors, the prequels are basically a cartoon.
I love rougher look of Vader in SW. Though it makes sense practically that he may need to replace components or the whole apparatus every so often. He did wear it every day.
What about Col. Klebb in From Russia With Love? She sure gave off a lesbian vibe in that one scene.
Yeah, that’s who I was referring to. She was a homosexual, Honor Blackman in Goldfinger was bisexual, and Wint and Kidd were homosexuals in Diamonds Are Forever. I’m still not sure about some characters, but Skyfall had at least the fourth homosexual and fifth or sixth LGBT character in general.
It is even clearer in the (excellent) novel that Klebb is lesbian. Her lusting over Tatiana (the pictured scene) progresses to the point where it becomes very uncomfortable.
Given his beat around the bush mentality here lately, I’d say SOMETHING has happened. But what and how happy will it make us, who knows?
The concept of personal canon is such a weird and intangible thing to me. Do you guys really see all these things fit together when you consume these movies/TV shows/comics/etc.? Or is it just simply you compiling what bits of Star Wars content you like and think are worthy of existing (for lack of a better term)? Or is it picking the things you think make sense together and should be things that happened in this universe?
I agree. I love the OT and TFA. And since I like them, I watch them. I don’t like the PT, so I don’t watch it. That’s pretty much all there is to it.
I’m just curious if you enjoy the twist being preserved or the removal of episode 1 more?
That’s a pretty dumb question. Frink has made it clear he hates the prequels regardless. Why would he give a damn about the benefits of the Machete order?
I too highly doubt the production is in trouble. But I would be disappointed if the reason for the reshoots is to make it less of a “gritty” war movie and add more of the Star Wars “magic” of the episodic films. It would be interesting to experience a film of a different tone in the SW universe, and what better way to explore that than through a tangential plot line that’s not essential to the saga. It would be a shame if they passed on that opportunity.
Maybe it’s just bad. Who knows?
Rouge One, VIII, and IX are among my favorites too.
I used to find that scene tolerable. Thanks Dek.
This thread had morphed from “which one shitty aspect of the shitty SE can I live with if I had to” to “this is why I love the SE!”
98 or 99 leading up to TPM. Don’t have a clue what version it was, they were lent VHS tapes is all I can remember.
Just re-watched Casino Royale (2006) for the first time in a few years. It really is an excellent film.
I haven’t decided yet but it will eventually end up in the anime I’m producing.
“The Rebels against ridiculousness”
In my scenario, his kidneys and intestines are in his head. Or maybe his feet.
Dig it. Going into my personal canon, whatever the hell that means.
Didn’t maul get chopped well up into his torso? Like, I’m pretty sure his kidneys and intestines ended up in the lower half. Not just a matter of robotic limbs.
More than likely even though they explicitly specify it’s the “original” '97 SE?
Maybe these are the new Reliance scans. Scanning the '97 negative is the obvious first step in creating a (long overdo) new master for the OT (OUT, SE, '04 or otherwise).
Unless they’re planning a wider, home media release of the '97 (which I doubt), if these are 4k DCPs, maybe its release in the '97 format—the current state of the negatives—is a sign from Lucasfilm to let us know “hey, we hear you, and we’re working in something.”
😐✋
I’m pretty sure Frink was just making fun of grown men who watch Dragon Ball Z. Y’all need to adopt a sense of humor.
And if someone said Star Wars (in general) was just for kids you would say…
That they’re wrong and Frink’s still right

Also, this thread was needed as a separate entity from the “Last Song” thread.
Agreed. It’s so sad when I see people my age and their phones are just a collection of disjointed songs.
