I once had a wife named Padmé. She died. She died.
Palpatine told me I killed her. He lied. He lied.
Why, oh why, is my wife dead?
Couldn’t I have lost the will to live, instead?
ALLOL
IIII’M CAPTAIN KIRK!
Today’s episode cold opens with a pretty good discussion of several projects from the site, including the Silver Screen Editions and Despecialized Edition, Mike Nichols and fan edits at large.
Visual or auditory?
I just hope they hold to their word about it not being an origin story.
Oh, he’s an angle, alright – an obtuse angle.
Request thread to be locked and all subsequent posts deleted.
Bahaha! The worst is the one that dismounts a dewback right before we first meet Han.
Maz Kanata versus Salacious Crumb
Oh, please.
The original reviewers weren’t seeing the films after seeing the prequels, either. The prequel reviews had the halo effect in their favor.
The sooner we are able to ban IPs, the better.
What’s even being said here? That, in-universe, the OT era saw censorship and hushing of knowledge? Or that the era seems dumb to you as a viewer?
The “dark times” pushed free thought underground, and burned space books about the Jedi.
But it is the backdrop of one of the greatest set of films ever made.
Also, whether you mean to or not, and you probably do, you come across as baiting.
EDIT: This was the first thread I opened today. Yeah, you know what you’re doing.
if they have taken fan feedback into consideration
Hopefully not.
What, and do a butt ton of rotoscoping on ANH, ESB, TFA, and in perpetuity?
You can always carve out time to sit in front of a screen editing Star Wars for several hours.
Quick idea: After Rey rescues BB8 from the not-Jawa, change her line from, “He wants you for parts,” to, “He wants you for pot.”
Unrelated: If we are talking about the novelizations as books without respect to anything else, just them in isolation, I’d say ROTS was far better than TFA.
I like the broad story, but the whole PT was brought about with compounding bad decisions.
For me, my edits are the definitive PT. And the novelizations are sort of an expanded version, so I can still have all the extra and different stuff to consider, as a separate incarnation of the story. Sort of like the book vs. movie if relationship of the Space Odyssey series.
I think what some are getting at is that Luke as a macguffin feels tacked on compared to something like Spock in The Search For Spock. We get the map to get the ball rolling, but SKB takes over the show as the new macguffin halfway through the movie without being set up beforehand. It came across to me as somewhat arbitrary, and didn’t feel like an organic part of the story.
Not sure whether introducing it earlier would help, or tying it more closely into the Luke thread.
SKB is the thing that stuck in my craw the longest coming out of TFA.
Then again, I remember that the Search For Spock also had a tacked on, rehashed doomsday device, didn’t it.
Fascinating.
Is it bad that the perceived racism enhances my enjoyment of TPM? I make a drinking game out of it.
not at all.
Oh, thank the heavens.
It’s too bad they apparently felt they couldn’t borrow the Sun Crusher wholesale from the old EU when making TFA, or we’d have been in for a more straightforward and less utterly implausible transhyperspace doomsday device.

Any story changes you have in mind?
I guess no one here went to the marathon leading up to TFA last December to see which versions were being run?
I did not want the last thing I saw before TFA to be Hayden’s ghost. I can endure sitting through the '97 SE if I have no other choice.
