Hey, I'm a vegetarian. Trust me, if there was anything wrong or cruel about bunny stuffing, I'd be the first to let you know.

Point taken, but it doesn't really relate to this thread. Honestly, I'd estimate that at least 60% of the models were done away with, since most of the model work in that movie was in the Battle of Yavin. Yes, I made that up. It's my guess, though.

Yes. Because for bunnies, as I have just realized and told them, being stuffed into human beings' noses is cool!

Hmm. Let's test this theory...

I am stuffing six bunnies into each of my nostrils! I hereby declare this as "cool." In order to be cool like me, which all of you want to be, I command you to follow my lead and start BUNNY STUFFING!

Let me guess. The collection of movie review ratings for the OT vs. the PT, right? Like we haven't seen that a million times before. Thanks!

Yeah, I'm so cool that I have a thread about me and didn't even post in it for two hours!

(EDIT: As uncool as it might sound, thank you for making me a thread, JediSage!)

I don't keep up with the other site, so I assume that YIYF is just busy with his new place of residence. Hopefully, he'll be back eventually. In the meantime, I'm enjoying a relaxing pace of slowly building a huge lead against him.

Okay, I was going to ask him how it was different as well, but I wasn't going to geekify my response by adding in Yoda quotes. So thanks for screwing everything up, dweeb. ^_~

Way to state an opinion as fact. Isn't that what you usually criticize people here for?

You might have lost even more cool points for double posting. Fortunately, I saved you from that. Thanks and donations can be sent to my favorite charity.

Then I suppose that would mean I was cool, and I just might feel obliged to give you back those cool points that you lost.

You know, Nanner, as cool as you are for having your own thread, you lost a few cool points by making it yourself. To be REALLY cool, someone else has to start it for you! Notice how I don't have my own thread? You know why? Because I'm not cool enough for someone to make one for me.

I don't know why I never replied to your initial post, because I had no idea that the tonsils were responsible for that. I've always felt pretty fortunate that I still have my tonsils, because I prefer to keep my body as intact as possible, and I don't really like the idea of someone going down my throat and slicing (or laser blasting) parts of my body out. While I'd still prefer to not have surgery, you did give me something to think about.

So did you just get yours removed solely on the basis of that article, or did you have a serious inflammation necessitating or encouraging their removal?

But had they "gone nuts", wouldn't that have just been an opportunity for them to drop even more story and just have even more hours of CG battles?

I'm not comparing right now, but if I recall, the only model shots that I can think of are those that take place in the trench when the camera tracks the ships across a horizontal plane. That, and the three TIEs trailing Luke and the other pilots in the trench.

Just out of curiosity, do the sets attempt to give each set a relatively even sprinkling of each Bond actor (as hard as that would be considering the uneveness of the amount of time spent in the role by each actor)?

I just hope Peterson doesn't stand idly by and not mention it. I would love for there to be some instances where he points out, "Well, my work was in this shot, but it has since been removed. I remember I had this really cool model that the team loved and had to get in there... it's been replaced by computer graphics now." Best way to spread the word.
