Here’s a nice quote about that Ring Theory stuff:
“Any time someone tells you that a work was secretly brilliant, and needs many thousands of words to explain why, you should be suspicious.”

Guten Morgen zusammen,
unglaubliche Arbeit, vielen Dank an alle Beteiligten!
Mir fehlen noch die Links für Teil V und VI, falls die jemand hat^^
Danke und schönen Wochenstart 😃Horst

It’s so silly. Palpatine ought to have looked in Sith like he did in Clones, and vice versa. That way it would be more believable that he looks the way he does in Jedi.
Indeed. Paply looks older in AOTS than he does in ROTS. I guess the “lightning deformation” is something Lucas improvised when he wrote/shot ROTS, because he obvioulsy had the primary idea that Palpy was just very old in ROTJ.
Maybe that “Benjamin-Buttoning” from AOTC to ROTS is another Sith Power 😉
If lightning hitting the Emperor deforms him, could that mean that Vader was still looking like Hayden throughout the OT? And his unmasked appearance is a result of getting hit by Palpatine’s lightning? So when Vader decided to thrown him down, he became a Jedi again while still looking young, that’s why Force ghost Hayden makes perfect sense. George, you brilliant writer mastermind.
In that regard, if Mace Windu survived somehow he should definitely look like Morgan Freeman 😉
That whole “reveals-his-true-form”-thing sounds like a cop-out. Like showing the death star construction at the end of the film, George thought he must show how Palpatine got his melted/aged face otherwise the audience will be totally totally totally confused when they get to ESB & ROTJ:
“Oh no who is that old guy hologram in the hood talking to Vader?! I’m sooooo confused!”
Could anybody send me also the Links for IV-VI? I contacted Laserschwert one week ago but I got still no answer. I know its holiday time 😉

Thanks for that, but how do i get the DL Links ?

Yeah, everything’s alright. My life just got really busy lately.
Real-world challenges have top priority. And challenges from a galaxy far far away, like [Krieg der Sterne DE 2.7] have to wait for that. That’s perfectly alright.
Take your time Laserschwert 😃
Laserschwert, was ist hier los? Keine 2.7 und keine Reaktion? Alles gut?
I think he would let us know if there is any progress on [Krieg der Sterne DE 2.7]. Maybe he’s on vacation? Let’s just hope he’s allright.
Bitte auch mir eine PM schicken bzgl “where-to-get-this” …
VIELEN DANK !!!

Hello,
I really need a PM for a DL-Link for my favorite Movie off all Time.
PM sent.
Yes, I would bet that for any official release of the original cut, it will have the Episode IV A New Hope crawl.
Except the most recent release of the original cut had no such crawl.
Suppose it would be funny if they played the GOUT DVD at this Celebration.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the GOUT so … it … could … be … possible 😉
And let’s not forget that Lucas - beyond his main alibi “I-helped-Richard-with-the-special-effects-stuff” - was there on a daily basis to make sure that the production does not went over schedule like ESB. As ESB, ROTJ was supposed to secure the funding for Skywalker Ranch.
THIS is awesome:

“You can’t handle the truth!” LOL
More importantly, when was Kate Bush on the crew of The Enterprise?
Must be one of Lt. Barclay’s holodeck programs. 😉
Or one of Geordi’s Holodeck girlfriends 😉
I kept getting russian spambot accounts loading the Ep.1 subforum up with nonsense paragraphs with links to cheap pharmaceuticals(?).
in before “better written than Phantom Menace”
About your sub forum description …
“Fan Edits: chopping up existing, finished works into exactly what I need them to be because I’m a broken person.”
Is that an original quote from George Lucas?
This post has the highest midichlorian count i have ever seen 😉
X-Wing, Tie Fighter and X-Wing Alliance were all developed by Totally Games.
Oh wait, only X-Wing Alliance was developed by Totally Games.
The Collector’s Edition of X-Wing was done by Totally Games. X-Wing itself came from LucasArts.
Is there a way to improve the 97SE Falcon cockpit shots? I don’t know why, but they always stick out to me. There is a slightly orange-reddish-image-softened-feel to them.
Is it a coincidence that the Star Wars games declined in quality when the Prequels came out? Guess not.
It did not decline. It improved.
Explain please.
Do you refer to KOTOR I & II or Jedi Outcast? But these games were not developed “inhouse” at LucasArts.
Back in the 90s LucasArts was my favorite game developer:
X-Wing
Tie-Fighter
Dark Forces
Jedi Knight
Shadows of the Empire
Rebel Assault I & II
X-Wing Alliance
Is it a coincidence that the Star Wars games declined in quality when the Prequels came out? Guess not.
So that’s why the romance in AOTC does not work!
Padme … you cheating b***h!
