1080p AVCHD (anyone wanting just the movie can rip the m2ts from the disc and convert it to a ts stream without having to re-encode with freeware tools that wil play on your PC. Takes a few minutes)

 

Huh??  What language are you speaking there man????

 

But, for me a 1080 version is pretty cool. The only blu-ray player I have is right here on my laptop. But, it does have a full 1080 res 18.5" widescreen, which does look bloody amazing.

Just wtched Batman begins on Blu-ray and it was just beautiful. All I need now is a big f**k off TV, but with two kids and little roaming hands all over the place, not a good idea...hence, my little laptop.:)

What you talking about Savage man? The kenner figures are cannon.. Final.. Nuff said. How dare you!!

Joking of course.

I know, they are Lucas approved after all. After all, I try to live my life the Kenner way. I haven't bent my elbows or knees since 1978! :)

 

 

Ha...Same here. Still have them all in a nice little shoe box in my parents loft, all in pretty mint condition.

Well, whatever...looks blue to me. I always thought that they just kept the same sort of theme with his outfits all through the film. Dark blue winter coat, dark blue Bespin coat. It's all in the design you know! Or are you guys gonna tell me his Bespin jacket is blue due to the colour balls up of the dvd?? :)

...Oh and Ady - While we're on famous ESB debates - Will you be coloring Han's winter coat BLUE or BROWN? Yes, there's a debate as to what color it was...Which is why Hasbro made two different versions of the same figure a few years ago...

 

There isn't much to debate on this one anymore. The coat IS brown. Any and all ref showing the coat being any shade of blue is due to the poor coloring that has been/is being corrected.

I have seen the coat first hand at Celebration IV, and it is 100% brown.

 

 

Mmmm....They did make the original figure with a blue coat back in 1980...waaayy before any dvd colour job was around.

Looks blue-ish to me!

I just watched magnoliafan's edit of Episode I. He did an awesome job making a coherent story line, while removing the bulk of unnecessary silliness. Only complaint is that the new subtitles were overly crude at times and alien voices were a bit awkward. He made Jar Jar genuinely funny at times, which was impressive. I look forward to seeing what you can do, adywan. I think "Lucas Apologists" would be the correct term for those who try to justify anything GL does...

 

Did you watch the avi file or the DVD? The dvd copy has 4 sets of subtitles- the newest version (ADigitalMan '04) is much more refined and less crude- i.e. no Jar Jar swears. :P I can agree with you on the alien voices though. Personally, I got used to it within 20 minutes or so.

 

And @ Stewie, I'm interested to see what you're doing to the prequels. Can't wait to see the finished products.

 

 

Where can one obtain a copy of this edit?

Give the head of Luke seen in Vader's mask on Dagobah sith eyes. I think that could really enhance this scene

 

 

Great idea!!! And do the same in ROTJ when Luke is about to kill Vader then make them return to normal when he realizes what he's about to become.

 

And no...Not a good idea at all!!!

Iv'e always hated Palp's transformation in Ep III. I'd prefer to think the disfigurement came through the years of artificially prolonging his life using the Dark side of the force. I wish Palp could have just have looked like himself (pre-transformation) but paler and with sith eyes that flare up at times throughout EpIII. A slow transformation through the Dark side makes more sense than instant disfigurement.

 

My thoughts on that were that due to his increased Dark Side usage in the prequels, Palpy was already beginning to look older and creepier, as seen in the numerous Darth Sideous holograms. I know he was cloaked, but he still seemed older and uglier than "Senator" and "Chancellor" Palatine did. I thought he might have been using the force to disguise his features. When zapped by his own lightning, he said, oh, here's a nice excuse to look evil like normal. Also, this might further explain the "I can't hold it anymore..." line. It could refer to his lightning, but it doesn't really make a lot of sense. Why would he hold his attack if it were crippling him? Would it not make more sense that he were losing his disguise? Note that he also does not seem very concerned that he looks creepy. Without even looking in a mirror he draws up his cloak to hide his disfigurements, suggesting he already knows what he looks like.

 

Anyways, ontopic, I like the droid gag idea. :P Would be something fun to look for while watching the original trilogy.

 

 

Yep...that's the way I've always seen it. I think I gave a big explanation on that theory on another thread somewhere here. I mean, the guy has just been frazzeld big time, but does it hurt him? No..Does he really give a shit? No. He just gets up as if it has all gone to plan. Also, if he was just disfigured due to the lightning, I doubt his face would have been so symmetrical looking.

My take on it was that he was using the force to disguise his true face. Using all that power in the lightning was draining the power to disguise himself. Once his plan was in motion, there was no need to look like kind, friendly old Palps he could just use the excuse that the Jedi disfigured and scarred him. Just more bullcrap to help his move to become Emperor

Sod it....Just make it a big purple beast!!

 

Yeah baby!!

 

 

 

 

On the subject of Super Star Destroyers, there's a line in Jedi that kinda contradicts things.

When Han and Co are travelling to Endor, Luke says something like 'Vader's on that ship" to which Han replies "Yadda Yadda, there's plenty of command ships".

I thought this was the only one?

Ok...I just thought of a little thing that's kinda bugged me for years (well, bugged's a bit harsh...but I know you guys, you like the dramatic stuff)

It's more of a sound issue really. It's the beep beep beep that Lando does with his watch thingy to Lobot. It's the same beep beep beep as Luke's on Hoth. Plus, Lando's beep is not in sync with his finger movement.

Like I said, just a small thing!

 

 

Nice clip there adyman. Did you put extra lights on the Star Destroyer, or is it just me seeing things?

Musicman...after listening to your little clippy there, I gotta say "Get the f**k outta here"

Only joking man, still think the original voice is by far the best. But I would say that, he's my great Uncle!

 

 

Wait, are you actually related to Wingreen? That's pretty cool. If only you were related to Morrison and could convince him to redo his voice for us...

 

 

Of course I'm not....Must be the hot spell we're having here, that and the lack of sleep (my boy's in a habbit of waking up at 5.00am at the moment...Joy!!)....I'm in a funny old mood.

I am shocked By the amount of hostility towards this post! it seems by the reaction that it is indeed a shut case, and if your opinion veers off the norm that is canon by certain members (you know who you are), bullying and aggressive behaviour is rife.

What a shame as I thought that even on sites like this there is a group of members willing to shout down a voice because it doesn't agree with what they say goes. And anything that isn't what they agree with is beaten down by abuse and aggression.

 

Don't worry about it. You'll soon realise that on every site, there are too many people who think 'their' opinion is correct.

Very true, HotRod. However, a word of warning to ladyferry: you might want to leave the room whenever the subjects of snowflakes or grains of sand come up. Shocking!
