One thing I'm beginning to notice is reactions of characters in the background. For instance, watch the scene in A New Hope when they just leave Mos Eisley, they're in space and they're being chased by star destroyer. Keep your eyes on Mark Hamill for the whole scene and watch his reactions to Han Solo especially.

It's great to watch a whole movie like that! It's almost like watching a whole new film!


I once watched Jedi just looking at Mark Hamill's eyes to see how often he blinked. Believe it or not, I only saw him blink twice in the whole movie. This is glaringly obvious in the scene with Luke and Leia talking in the ewok village.

Heh, funny thing. I just noticed an interesting parallel: Anakin and Neo are both chosen ones and both dream of their loved ones dying.


Did you see the 2003 MTV movie awards?
They did a spoof of the Matrix Reloaded. These two dudes were lost in the matrix and were at the big underground party.
One asked "Where are we?"
Andy Dick, who was rocking out and dancing with glow sticks between his fingers, said:
"We're in an underground city where the last remaining humans live, and the machines are coming to kill us. Doesn't that just make you want to party? YEAH!!!" and he continues dancing.

My guess is the latter, as there hasn't been much time for Lucas & Co. to finalize the saga yet (if there is such a thing). But here's hoping we get a digital Yoda in Episode 1 and OT deleted scenes.


"Finalize the saga." Hmm...

My view is that now Lucas can view all six of his films together and hopefully gain some kind of new perspective, and he just may be able to give the thing coherance.
That is, of course, if the OOT is included as well.

If not, give me the 2004 editions any day.
