What is wrong with... <strong>Attack of the Clones</strong>? - a general discussion thread
Time

Actually if it were recessive, allowing the Jedi to have children with non sensitives would increase the amount of force sensitivity out there over time by introducing the gene into the general pool. It’s just that not every child would be force sensitive.

If you limited who they could have kids with, you’d end up after several generations with a very unhealthy genetic pool.

The type that built this site? Lol.

Any grammatical error or something?

no

Then I don’t know what the question mark is doing there.

I’m pretty sure it’s the ironic type of question mark directed at the intelligence of the person who asked the question.

OT Special Editions to have USA Roadshow Summer '16
Time

Jeez, the prospect of a “fancy” type theater showing one of the most famous movies of all time on a highly publicized tour… digitally projected in 2K is, well, not only depressing, but embarrassing.

If there’s one thing that points to any optimism on this issue (and more specifically, the potential for the adoption of Legacy), it’s that within a few years a large subset of consumers are going to expect 4K even on home media, and Lucasfilm literally cannot provide it now, even for f**king cinemas.

With the brief exception of two Darth Lucas posts breaking things up…

Scrollin’ scrollin’ scrollin’…

Hey, someone else posted and broke things up a little.
If there’s a way I can shorten my post lengths by adding spoilers or what not like some forums allow, I’d love to make my posts a little smaller.

What?

Dear Lucasfilm: A Billboard
Time

I’m not convinced one billboard in SF is going to sway Lucasfilm one way or the other. (Is it even anywhere near where Lucasfilm brass are sure to see it?) And 5k would go a lot farther on projects around here.

We would be better off flying over Skywalker Ranch, and releasing thousands of Sebastian Shaw Anakin figures on tiny parachutes. 😉

And the EU began in 1976? Splinter of the Mind’s Eye wasn’t even published until '78.

George would probably just melt them down in some perverse sadistic ritual.

Edit: actually, he’d probably chop off their heads and superglue Hayden heads on them.

Serious:
Black Rain ('89), First Blood ('82), Fatal Attraction ('87), Die Hard ('88)

Funny:
Uncle Buck ('89), Caddyshack ('80), The Dream Team ('89), Major League ('89), Beverely Hills Cop ('84), Airplane ('80)

A “classic” that I hate: The Breakfast Club ('85)

Out of curiosity…why do you hate the Breakfast Club?

It’s been so long since I watched it. I was still in high school, and didn’t relate in any way to them, and I thought it was boring. I know I’m the outlier. …

If this is handled well, it could end up great. Tarantino movie in space (without the violence, obviously). If it’s not, wel…

Don’t you mean excessive violence?

In my book, if there’s not blood, it’s not violence

Even early Tarantino wasn’t excessively violent like Kill Bill, Django, and The Hateful 8, which actually depict more blood and gore than is realistic for the given situations. Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction had blood, sure, but it was realistic levels for the violence at hand. Star Wars is certainly violent, but not bloody, as most of the wounds are caused by lasers.
