That may be true. But then again it may just look so bad to you because it is put in contrast to 70's and 80's technology.


well no as long as its on film the cg will turn out fine. Its jsut that ILM did a half ass job

Prequel Boxset?

ya i want the wampa subplot added back in and the force choke, and the scene in ROTJ were Ben talks to luke abou the Battle him and Anakin had on Mustafar


The latter will and should never happen. If George Lucas overdubs Alec Guiness, I'll be first in line to tear down Skywalker Ranch with an axe.


No its was reall scene they filmed but i don't know if they said the name of the planet but there is scene like that. And LMFAO at Invader Jennys post

That is an awesome idea, ADM. What song would you use for ROTJ, the Emperor's Theme?

And, yeah, I would love to have seen an actual logo for the prequel titles. Stupid episode numbering bull crap. I try to look at it from a non-fan perspective and it just seems stupid to hear fans talking about their favorite movies by saying a number. "Yeah. Two is my favorite." "Maybe, but Five has a lot of good elements." Geez, are we talking about pieces of cinema or a vehicle or a computer? It's just another thing that makes us look stupid to the common folk.


haha ya really. I also refer to then as there name

I've often considered concocting an alternate title card sequence with each of the films in the OT, having NO episode in front of any of them, and setting them to the "theme" song of the episode, just to see how it would work. e.g. Having the Empire Strikes Back logo recede instead of the Star Wars logo, and setting it to the Imperial March.

With the prequels, there wasn't really a good logo that featured the episode name. They were all about the episode number, with the name as an afterthought. And with names like "The Phantom Menace" who cares anyway.

In many ways, Lucas tied himself down too much by putting episode numbers into the crawls.


I was actually gonna send you a PM about that lol

SW and Performance Enhancing Drugs

I was looking at CO's signature, "May the Midichlorians be with you," and I thought about something. If the Force really was just midichlorians in the blood, could you dope up before going into battle? Could you train in a really stressful environment, so your blood would have to produce more midichlorians to account for the stress, and then give blood and keep it on ice, transfusing it back in when needed for battle? What about synthetic midichlorians, or drugs that affect the blood the same way? Would they have to regulate force-enhancing drugs?


I bet Goerge never thought of that
