Any favorite Star Wars scenes?
Time

ROTS: Emperor’s revenge against Windu.
SW: Vader’s fight with Obi Wan.
ESB: Vader chamber scene or the reveal scene.
ROTJ: Emperor scenes and Vader’s death scene.
RO: Vader scenes.
Honourable mentions: Vader vs Ashoka from Rebels and Maul vs Obi Wan rematch. TCW various Palpatine episodes. Clone marching scene from AOTC. Maul vs Qui Gon from TPM.

I also like these scenes but the fight between Ashoka and Maul is one of my favourites. Bolba Fett also has some great scenes.

The Hobbit (M4 Book Edit) (Released)
Time

chrisvilla said:

Watched this. It’s much better than the released trilogy, which bloated full of junk IMO. Love the fact that it’s much tighter to the book, and the pace is much better now. This is the only Hobbit I need now, will probably give the trilogy away to someone. Superb, well done.

You can’t give it away as the site says you have to own the official release of any fan edit or preservation.

Edit: not trying to mod just giving helpful advice.

Yeah, Duracell was the glue keeping Off-Topic together. With him gone, I doubt many people will want to post here. It’s a shame, but I understand why it happened.

I think the glue holding Off Topic together was Frink (just by the sheer volume and hilarity of his posts), but he joined the “abuse the guy who made this site possible” bandwagon, unfortunately. Duracell was the just the last of a handful of members who were major contributors to Off Topic, all of whom have now been banned or rarely post anymore.

The thing is, Off Topic had a certain flavour unique to the Internet, but when it became moderated and the rules changed, the kind of people it had attracted in the past and which had made it so much fun also became the kind of people who didn’t like or disregarded the new rules. And then the Politics thread became a catalyst for a personal conflict, which resulted in the Off Topic contributors being decimated, and which has never really ended (the only thing ending it is everyone on one side getting banned for keeping it up).

It’s the whole Wild West vs ordered later years debate

Captain EO - 70mm 3D print opportunity
Time

Lucas the Barbarian said:

It says the price is a placeholder, but half a million dollars makes a lot of sense given that it was only shown at 4 Disney Parks in the world (except for that one time it aired on MTV but that’s beside the point). After 2015 it was never shown again, and let me remind you - this was a DISNEY PARKS ATTRACTION for crying out frickin loud! Whoever can buy this print and scan it is a hero.

Not to mention a saint

I honestly have no idea what the argument is about, or who is on which side of what, so I’m hesitant to join any side. Not that it would matter, I haven’t made any friends here really. The only person I’ve frequently chatted with is ooJason. He’s always been extremely friendly and helpful. I’ve never had a problem with anyone here either though.

I don’t come into the cantina much, which is probably why I have no idea what’s gong on. I got curious and tried reading through some old threads, but I just see anger and more vague references to events I don’t know about, so I mainly stick to talking about Star Wars.

Sorry if people are missing some long time friends who’ve been banned, but it doesn’t sound like it was an easy decision for the mods, and SilverWook has explained the bans were due to their conduct and not a vendetta. The Star Wars discussions do seem more pleasant.

It sounds like whatever the original problem was doesn’t even matter anymore, it’s just become some longstanding feud that’s more about the feud itself than whatever started it. Sorry if I’m way off. Just what it seems like to me.

I think the main mission of this site, to preserve the original versions and how they were created, is important to our cultural history. I hope this community can move past all this and continue to enjoy Star Wars. This is an excellent time to be a Star Wars fan.

You hit it on the head.

The OOT has been officially unavailable for almost a decade now
Time

JadedSkywalker said:

Yeah from transfers done on D1 tape in 1992-93 for laserdisc.

There never was a transfer done for DVD, blu-ray and there never will be an official one for 4k UHD.

There never has been a restoration done of the original films, and there probably won’t ever be one.

Lucas doesn’t want it to happen it isn’t about the money.

Kathleen doesn’t want it to happen either.
