Speaking of which, did we ever determine what film element the unaltered GOUT crawl would’ve been scanned from?

Lucasfilm’s form response letter at the time stated that existing prints were in “bad condition” or something to that effect, but they didn’t exactly help their case by splicing in a newly transferred piece that looked just fine to me.

I’m curious if it’s a recreation after watching this video. In the GOUT the SW logo fades out sooner than it does on 4K77 and the SSE.

The star field is also less pronounced, so it could be a matter of contrast levels making it seem to fade to zero faster than it actually does.

She looks like a good doggo

And maybe he usually send the storm troopers in because he normally doesn’t like to risk his life unnecessarily, but this was an emergency and he didn’t have time to mobilize a battalion?

That interview was handled horribly. The interviewer asked a shit question, and she answered like she barely knew what he was asking. If anything, the interview merely indicates that LF will not tinker with the SEs. That does not mean that they wouldn’t issue the OUT.

Why do you think Kathy is the barrier to the OUT being released?

I hate those machines…

thanks for getting that jingle stuck in my head

It’s professional problems, not health, thank God. But I’m not sure how much more she can take without cracking…

What’s up with you Snooker?

My good friend (who may be the woman I love…) had a major setback, and there’s nothing I can do to help. I feel just as helpless as I imagine she feels right now. Poor girl can’t catch a break, and it kills me.

Order 66 sucks pretty bad.

Music’s nice though.

Order 66 is one of the best scenes in the Saga!

Why do you think that?

The GOUT is just a low-resolution early 90s master from Lucasfilm (so, ostensibly, from earlier generation sources like the O-neg or separation masters). The SSE is based on release prints, I believe. They’re entirely different.

The GOUT transfers were done in 1993 from interpositives struck from the o-neg in 1985.

NERD

^ 2-1B’s mouth always reminded me of a vintage drive in movie speaker

At first I was like “that looks nothing like a drive-in movie speaker.” Then I remembered that the only exposure I’ve had to drive in movie speakers is from the Flinstone’s intro. There’s a drive in active near where I grew up, but they have have short-range FM now.

All I got from that was “holy shit, I forgot how awful Yoda looked in the prequels.”

You seem like a good kid. Just stay away from the fetish “would you rather”s.

Would you rather Zerome increase his posting frequency tenfold or have the forum disappear for good?

Except Rey is a novice at best.

If they do take a five year break they should get rid of Kathleen, restore majority of the EU, promote Pablo as creative director, redo the prequels and restore and release the OUT. If anyone has a problem with this please pm me instead of derailing the thread.

Why, by responding directly to something YOU posted, would we be derailing the thread?

But 1/1/2 doesn’t look like ‘one and one half’ should. It just looks like 3 numbers in a row.

This was my main point, which he seems content to ignore.

I have no idea what 1/1/2 or 3/1/2 means.

Ever heard of measurements?

Don’t be such a smart ass. The way you wrote it is unconventional, if not wrong.
What you meant, I presume, is 1-1/2 and 3-1/2.

I didn’t recognize what you wrote as such until just now, either.

But also, it’s a rank order, so why use half-measures anyway? That’s also unconventional, adding confusion.

Why should I conform to your conventions? That and people do use halves in lists, ala Lion King, Lion King 1/1/2 and Lion King 2. Usually, you see point number but I decided to do the unexpected.

I’m not telling you to conform. I’m telling you not to be a smart ass when you don’t and people don’t understand you.

Also, lion king 1-1/2 is called such because it was made after Lion King 2 was already out.

Ouch. Go see a doctor.
