Referring to Fett being so built-up, then entirely inconsequential to the film:

A) Darth Maul
B) Count Dooku (meh)
C) General Grievous

Yeah. Same thing, ESPECIALLY Grievous.

But Fett was done right, and the only one of these 3 even remotely so is Maul.

Same with the family member question.

Answer every question evilly . . .

As in, think of what the SW "Good Guys" would do versus what the SW "Bad Guys" (actually, Empire, really) would do.

Kitchen floor question:
Evil: Clean and shiny
Good: Dirty and dingy

Think about it. What did the Empire's floors always look like? Shiny and clean.

Et cetera.

What mild language?? You are not refering to Owen's "...Hell to pay" statement???

Han to Ben: "Damn fool . . . "
Han to Leia (Garbage Chute): "What the hell are you doing?"
Owen to Beru: " . . . hell to pay."

Am I missing any? I think I am but I'm not sure. . . .

If anyone wants to know, here are the rankings you can get (after playing around with it for a half hour):

0 = Emperor
1 = You Are the Servant of Evil
2 = Darth Maul
3 = Grand Moff Tarkin
4 = Han Solo
5 = Princess Leia
6 = Mace Windu
7 = Luke Skywalker
8 = Obi-Wan Kenobi
9 = Yoda

Rated PG for sci-fi violence and brief mild language.

ESB / ROTJ

I got really bored and started peeking around that site again. This is to show that it's not exactly a rare error to make when making a DVD. Same comparison, this time with Vera Cruz:

I got it on bittorrent, and what happens is in that section when the tractor beam begins to pull the Falcon in, the sound effects of the tractor beam/Falcon's resistance overpower the actors' dialogue to an extreme level. Maybe this is a DE mix issue, but I've never heard it like that anywhere but the Dr. Gonzo set.

That's also either a PT or a SE-DVD capture, not an O-OT capture.

That's a Dr. Gonzo set error I've never seen anyone else but me notice, so I figured it was my set. Guess it isn't.

You'd have to decide whether my voice is appropriate or not; give me a line of dialogue and I'll read it and send it to you, if you like.

I think he'd thought you were referring to a download of the official DVDs, as you reffered to it as Episode 4 or something like that, which very few people here do unless the discussion is about the SE's.

Wow. That is something I've never thought about before in my life . . . who does? Lucasfilm? And who runs Lucasfilm when the Flannelled One bites it? And will they be willing to release the OOT? Hmm . . . if I'm not here anymore in a month or so . . . you know what happened . . .

I'd be willing to give the Lama Su dialogue a go. I'm not sure how good it'd be, but I'd be willing to try.

Nay - cut the Death Star construction altogether. Unless your logic is that the Empire began DSII construction shortly after that, it makes no sense. Plus Tarkin is just odd there.

That was my favorite scene in the movie.

My favorite bit of music - and I don't know if this is what you're talking about, Trooper, it very well could be the one you hated - was the war march version of the Force Theme. That gave me chills. My favorite overall musical experience had to be the Buddhist "OHM" thing before the "opera", or Battle of the Heroes. Immolation Scene music was too understated, or maybe I was too transfixed by the little legless glow-light onscreen.

Good God you're a really depressing bunch . . . reminds me of the last play of the year - I'm a sophomore, and there were a crapload of seniors who've been in drama club for 4 years who kept saying "This is it . . . we'll never do another HS play again together . . . " and making each other cry and whatnot . . . then when we saw Wicked last week, during the song "For Good" at the end, all the seniors started crying again.

Sorry for that, you guys just reminded me so much of that . . .

I'm going to the first showing (12:01 am) tonight. That and 12:03 are sold out, so Al (my manager; I work at the theater) decided to do a 12:05 show as well . . . damn . . . that's a first for the little town I live in. . . .

Maybe there will finally be TEXTLESS versions of all the cooler posters!

If they're even near full-page-length, I can scan them at a high DPI and blow them up to DVD cover size with no loss of quality . . .
