The guy yelling on Coruscant at the end of ROTJ says: "The son of suns! The son of suns!"

iirc, this is a reference to an old draft of Star Wars that refers to the the "son of suns" who would fulfill a prophecy.

Sluggo,

Thanks for the artwork (got it) and the new discs you're sending.

Will the new discs already have the jacket folder, or will I have to create that?

Sluggo, I also just noticed that my disc 4 does not have the DVD-ROM folder that would include the virtual record player with the "Story Of" albums.

My copy of disc 4 is also missing the Story of Albums. Sorry I didn't notice sooner.

Grumble Grumble

I already made 5 copies of disc 1.

I'll hold off on anything further until we all get on the same page.

DE,

If I may make a humble suggestion, I think it would save everyone a lot of searching and reposting if you added the links to my covers and labels to the first post of this thread.

ADM,

I thought the version with the multiple tracks was already on your Spoofs DVD? (Thanks, BTW.)

How is the new version you're working on any different?

This was Korngold's score for "The Sea Hawk". Someone said the track is "Kings Row".

Trooperman posted a clip of the Star Wars crawl with this Korngold music on page 75 of his thread:

Zombie,

I think I understand how you feel. I've had my ups and downs with Star Wars. The prequels are a dim comparision to the original trilogy. I could go on, but I'm sure it's nothing new to anyone here.

However, I think you may be letting your cynicism get the better of you. I don't think this is the end of Star Wars (especially the Original Trilogy). In other threads, I've seen you post things to the effect that there is nothing new to discover in Star Wars, such as your out-of hand dismissal of "Luke's missed Death Star chasm throw" as well as your dismissal of the remote possibility that an advance copy of ESB was screened in some theatres.

This may sound naive, but I am amazed by the new things I'm continually finding out about the Original Trilogy. Like a month ago Trooperman dug up some old music by Korngold (sp?) that was an obvious inspiration for the Star Wars theme by John Williams. And I haven't seen Jambe's Returning to Jedi yet, but I'm sure there's some stuff in there I've never heard or seen before (FYI, I am 34 years old, and have been a Star Wars fan since I was 5).

I hope you don't give up.

If they're feeling generous . . . .

I made a lookalike cover for the first EditDroid version of Star Wars, which you can see on page 22 of this thread.

I have still have one last spot available in my US-only PIF chain.

PM me if you're interested.

This is single layer, right?

I will make the offer to PIF to 5 people in the US. Each of those people need to assure me that they will PIF to at least 3 others.

And I challenge anyone to prove that I have ever not followed through on any PIF offer.

Sluggo, would a scan of a postal recepit be sufficient?

I haven't had a fan club membership since the middle of last year. I don't really feel like I'm missing anything.

The Insider magazine has had its ups and downs. Ever since the prequels, the Insider has been mostly about hyping the next movie, which I think is a very shallow approach. It's basically turned into Entertainment Weekly for Star Wars. Back before the prequels, the Insider was full of interesting retrospectives (Wonder Column) and thoughtful articles (like the article on the Lost Cut). If Titan can return to that, then I might get interested again.

But I will NEVER subscribe to the Insider as long as it's bundled with the way-overpriced Hyperspace. They really need to offer separate subscriptions.

Actually, I wish they would just eliminate Hyperspace altogether, since it's basically a subtle attempt to control Star Wars content on the Internet (like the free hosting for Star Wars fansites that they were offering years ago). They should keep the Star Wars website free and make it just for news, photos, and the occasional movie files. (My God, how does Startrek.com afford to run a website without subscriptions?!) Then, they can beef up the Insider with the articles that used to be posted to Hyperspace. And because it will be good, subscriptions to the Insider will go up!

I think I need to send a letter to someone in Lucasland.

All too easy.

The covers have been updated. Same links as before.

As far as a close-up shot of Luke with the saber, IMO that's not necessary. The shot currently shown on the cover is the most needed fix (green saber) in the scene.
