but where did they come from? I though that website was independent/not affiliated. Are there industry insiders on the ‘staff’ who leak things in this way?
Edit: if they’re real, those covers speak OUT to me. No ‘Episode’, no ‘New Hope.’
Probably doesn’t mean squat, but the blu-ray.com listings for SW, Empire and Jedi have been updated with nice, high-res cover art images (framed by BD packaging) based on original poster art (but not simply the posters). I don’t know if this site is privy to any special information or not, but seems odd that someone on the site would just go make these high-res images for shits. They previously just had the theatrical posters as placeholders. Reverse image search gives no results.
Also, OT box steeply discounted to $20 on Amazon… that’s really cheap

Anyone else totally disregard George Lucas being the director for the Star Wars films?
No, but I disregard most of the star wars films he directed.
a flacid Willy Wonka bar.
Is this some weird pop-culture references I don’t get?
Obviously you’re not a golfer.
Actually i am. And what’s that got to do with anything?

His neck is just too distracting. Besides, he’s nowhere to be found in Episodes II and III.
In the comics he died, but that’s not canon anymore.
So you’re saying… he might show up in Episode IX!
If the movie is good, record it however you want.
Star Wars Episode IX:
Shot on iPhone
I’m not a huge fan of Abrams, but his flag-waving for 35mm earns him lots of points in my book.
I wonder if Abrams will keep Trevorrow’s plans to shoot IX in 65mm, or if he will continue using 35.
The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
Glad I finally watched it. While I enjoyed it, I prefer my anti-war social commentary in the form of Planet of the Apes (1968) or Dr. Strangelove. But still an above-par film. 7/10
As long as the film is cut right and Han and Leia’s faces aren’t Magenta, I’d be happy. Everyone who thinks their specific color preferences should carry some weight because they’re reflected in print X or Y is neurotic, IMO. How green were the Death Star walls on a new 1977 Kodak print? I don’t care.
They already did. Kathleen Kennedy already said it’s not going to happen. Just a bunch of people who can’t take a hint and like to bury their heads in the sand.
I didn’t hear that, but heartbreaking as it is, it’s not surprising.
FYI, she didn’t. Granted, she hasn’t said the opposite either.
I just can’t see the OOT ever getting released on its own. As a 2nd disc feature, maybe.
I’d buy a set with both SE and OUT cuts without hesitation. It’s the prequels that would aggravate me. But Lucasfilm has never forced the prequels on people who don’t want them. They have OT sets and have released individual titles as well.
The mere fact of the huge SW pirate market should be motivation enough for them not to force OUT buyers to pay for the prequels.
Is it “casual person who doesn’t know anything about the movie and won’t care” unpolished? Or is it “casual person who doesn’t know anything about the movie and will be distracted by it being ‘unfinished’ so might care” unpolished?
I never thought the DC was deficient until I saw the Final Cut, and deficient is probably way too strong a word. Having seen the edited versions, I find the theatrical unwatchable.
I’m so confused as to why the directors cut is even still out there, save for as a special feature in the box set they put out. Just seems odd that’s what’s on demand and not the final. Theatrical was on Netflix awhile back and that was neat as a curiosity, but with the final cut in existence, I don’t get the persistence of the directors cut.
So Jon Hamm’s existing renditions are closer to that of Wingreen?
I guess I’m ignorant. Why is this significant?
who the hell is this Sidious dude anyway? This isn’t PT.com
Loss of will to live vs. uber advanced medical robot who wins?
Honestly can’t imagine them forcing the PT on OUT consumers. Could you imagine the ill will that would provoke?
How embarrassing… how embarrassing.
oh wait I get it. A joke about Luke haha

A long time ago…
Since Colin Trevorrow’s story pitch was so Leia-centric, I guess it’s not surprising that after Carrie Fisher’s death Lucasfilm brought JJ back. With TFA Abrams proved he can do a SW film where one of the three OT leads is absent for the whole thing.
I doubt that had anything to do with it.
Release moved to December 2019. Good, 18 months is a little too quick.
