i think 'yoda is your father', 'psycho_dayv' and 'jay' and all those who donated really deserve a massive online standing ovation for this action. it's so heartwarming to see how people can get together and help each other.

i made a small contribution myself and was really happy to do so.

wish you all the best for christmas, folks...

i enjoyed both his movies and really liked the bully parade
i enjoyed space ships surprise. i think that for a mere comedy/parody/spoof it was really well shot and the effects were topnotch. what annoyed me the most is that they did too many gay and c*** jokes. that's a bit overdone and becomes tedious after a while.
another german comic who's hilarious is michael mittermeier, i loved his ads spoofs

i think that the stereotypes of germans being not funny is oh so not true. they have some of the best comedy shows i know. and i watch also french and english tv so i should know.

but i have to say that i agree that conan o'brien is the funniest guy there is.

what i really like about star wars is that you can find so many references in other movies. so i'm kinda enjoying this thread.
i can think of only two at the mo:

dogma (i know i know yet another kevin smith flick):
Jay: I feel like I'm Han Solo, and you're Chewie, and she's Ben Kenobi, and we're in that fucked-up bar.

and the other one is from buffy, also from the three nerds:
(when Warren is back as a "ghost" and eggs Andrew on to send Jonathan to open a gate or sth, can't remember...)
Andrew: this boy is our only hope
Warren: no, there is another...
Andrew: Really?
Warren: nah, was only finishing the quote...

they are not the best ever references but they stuck with me somehow

and as anyone seen the "grocery store wars" video on the internet? it's a bit moralistic but a few things are really hilarious. i'll say only two words: ham solo...

1. if Darth Vader could destroy a planet then I think that palpatine should be able too since he's as strong - or maybe even stronger - in the force than Vader is. need i remind you of his lightning sparks (or whatever they are).

2. nobody really knows what the force can do, that's what makes it so appealing to SW fans and that's also why the midi chlorian explanation is generally disliked (since it lessens that mystery).
it follows that we also don't know what the force can't do, I think that find the base and the stolen data and destroy an entire planet are part of it.

3. thanks for the quote correction DJ but I'm too lazy to go and change it...

Time: 8-Oct-2004 1:29 PM

I like the idea but the thing is that GL doesn't want to release the O-OT for artisitc reasons and not for monetary ones. It would be no problem because even if the didn't sell well, it iwould be a minor loss for GL because he has A LOT of money. The problem is that he does not want the originals to exist at all and making a limited edition is contrary to what he wants.
I'm just hoping that someday he'll change his mind - after all he has done that quite a lot of times...

thanks for posting that article KM, would not have jnown about it otherwise.
It's really well written, I think it resumes what most O-OT fans don't like about the Special Edition perfectly.

I really love the quote that comes here before accessing this web site.
Thanks to Jay for putting it in.
That really makes me wonder how GL would like it if Kurosawe had decided 20 years after the release of Hidden Fortress to colorize it because that is how he really wanted it but didn't have the technology to shoot it in color.

episode 3 now has so many things to explain, it won't fit into a 2hour movie anymore!

i've wanted the Star Wars DVDs for so long that I was even ready to buy the SE, but that is too much, I just can't buy it. Those are not the OT I like, the meaning is completely different now.

the ewoks are not too bad, but it would've been nice to see more than only one wookie and how chewbacca interacts with other of his kin. it would have added something more to his character.
however it would have been a huge coincidence if the inhabitants of endor, the planet chosen to guard DS2 had been wookies.

yeah the French have a hang for translating foreign names into French. but in this case it's really ridiculous., what have they done to chewie!!

concerning the article, it's cool that we're not the only ones who care about preserving the originals. makes my will to resist against the lure of the DVDs stronger.

you can't compare that. the star trek you like went off air BUT it is available on DVD as it was when you first watched it. The Original Trilogy on the other hand is anihilated, it does not exist anymore, in Lucas' point of view. And that's what upsets most of the posters on this forum.

As Jay said it already, if you are satisfied whit the SSE DVDs, what are you doing here anyway?? Only annoying those who would like to have the 77 - 83 versions on a proper, official, legal DVD? I really do not understand it...

... or an like an "L" for Lucas.

As for myself, when I first heard the rumours about the Anakin gjost thing I said to myself that I would wait a couple of days after the DVDs were out, check on the internet if that was true and it it was I wouldn't buy 'em.
Sadly, that was the case. It's really too bad becuase I really want them to have on DVD (better quality, cool cases, bonus disc...), even if they were SE, but that's too much.

George PLEASE release the OT so that I can give you my money and make you even richer!!!

I think that the next logical step would be Venom.
I hope they won't go with the Harry-becomes-the Goblin storyline. I think that last scene with him in the movie shows that he realizes that his father was the green goblin and that he forgives Spider-Man. I know it's different in the comics but it would be rather boring if they used a Goblin as a villain AGAIN. There are loads of cool villains in the Spider-Man comics so would be stupid to use the some sort twice.

… CGI hadn’t been that fully developed when TPM was made? Do you think it would have turned about better? I think yes because that’s one of the things that makes it so much different from the OT. If GL had had to use puppets like for the OT he would have been more limited and maybe would have focused more on the characters. Or do you think it woyld have been worse? Resulting in an even more annoying Jar JAr maybe?
