How do the holograms, binocular shots and officer screens look like in TESB? Would it be hard to ie. recolor the information in the binoculars from red to original green or how about the colors in Luke's garage in SW?
I've learnt to appreciate Star Wars a little more and ROTJ a little less. I still enjoy the whole trilogy, of course, and they will be my favorite films to the end. Also I appreciate more and more the older stuff than ever and am trying to forget the prequels.

As for SOTME, I found it interesting from a historical perspective; what with being the potential sequel and all. But ultimately I didn't care for the story. It felt too "late 70's/early 80's fantasy cartoon"-ish to me, if that makes any sense. It's been a few years since I've read it, though, and I only have vague, generalized memories from it. I do remember thinking some parts were cool though. Maybe I should give it another go sometime...
Same here. I should read it again. I liked it, though, but the whole plot seems a little weird and of course it doesn't have anything to do with later stuff. But it was entertaining and a good read.
I've also read SW and it's basically the early SW script with deleted scenes before they were deleted. Nothing special, to me at least.
Ah, okay. Haven't been watching those SEs in a long time. :P

It takes a team to wrap our minds around all of the different versions. I just can't believe we're the first to notice the "there one version, gone the next" scanlines. Not having scan lines in one version I can kind of understand.Sluggo said:
I'm loving the teamwork going on here!
This I don't. The scanlines are going in the complete opposite direction!
Also the 2004 shot seems to be zoomed out, didn't find that on your descriptions. Weird.
Are you sure that the Bespin platform is on a pylon or does it have anything under it?
Is there even a DVD?
Prequels, no.
Originals, no. (well, kinda the GOUT, but it seems that at least SW and TESB have been tampered).
Droids, no.
Ewoks, no.
THX, no.
American Graffiti, no.
CW, no.
TCW, no.
Any others?

Great looking covers Ash595 and LexX!!!
Thanks! I'll only need the runtime for SWB and they're ready. If there's any interested I can then put the high res versions up.

SPOILER:
No, Luke. I am your father!
END SPOILER.
It doesn't go like that! Shame on you.
Kidding aside, like I said I was 8 when I saw them all but I have no memory of any plot twists. I just remember how cool and exciting they all were. I'd really like to remeber or get the feeling when Vader tells the truth for the first time...
I was wondering if anyone else would be interested in talking about other movies than SW in general, like new BD releases and how they compare previous releases and possible revisionism in them, up-coming movies etc. There are some threads in Off Topic section but that's full of other crap, too. So I'm suggesting a new forum for that if there's interest...

Now I don't know what to believe...
Wow... Me neither. How about SW and ROTJ?
I was 8 when I saw the whole trilogy, before that I didn't even know it's existence. And, well... here I am. I'm not sure under 5 years old kids really understand the whole thing. I know how exciting it must be to show them but the older the better in my opinion.
Welcome!
Hope you like them. Right click for bigger.
What the hell? That's one of the most ridicilous sounds I've ever heard. Well, I wasn't going to watch the crappy versions anyway.
Here's what I came up with, I didn't find the other covers so I don't know what's in the back or how's the spine. This also has the spine area so the text doesn't look like centered. LMK what you think if I should continue.
How about Puggå <- Swedish 'o'
Well, you have to have some friends in the galaxy, right? Yeah, maybe it's too much that Lando happens to own a city and used to own Falcon but it doesn't take anything out from the movie, from me at least. The whole Cloud City plot wouldn't work if you take Lando out of it.

That's the thing...the only 77 version I have is the dvd release...and let's be honest...the quality isn't that good.
I think it's pretty sad that people rather watch crappy versions just because they're in better image quality. I guess that explains the present Hollywood, then. I mean, people watched movies on VHS for 20 years!
donovader said:
Are these Finnish covers? Cool.
BTW, I hear it isn't very common to do Finnish dubs of films outside Finland except if the film is for younger audiences. Would that be right?
Yes they are. Thanks. :)
And yes, you are right. We have subtitles in our films. Thank goodness! Except for younger audiences like cartoons but usually they also have the original English versions in bigger movie theaters.

To me, the shrinking of the universe via writer's block started with Empire.
What is it in Empire that shrinks the universe? I know you don't like Vader being Luke's father but besides that. I agree with you on ROTJ, though.
Last prequel I watched was TPM on VHS that I bought but that was just checking if the tape was fine, I really don't remember actually seeing the film, LOL. I'm not even sure when it was, this year or last year.
I haven't seen AOTC in at least two years and I watched ROTS on Christmas two years ago when it was on TV. I hope these will be the last time I ever saw them.

Hmm. It's been two years since The Clone Wars movie. I never saw that, and I have no desire to ever see it, so I guess I wouldn't be far off in saying, "No."
I wasn't interested in that, either, and I couldn't care less about those kind of movies but still if done right some SW movies could be interesting.
Yes, but either as redone prequels or then something completely different, like KotOR style. And without Lucas.
Why I hate the prequels most is that they are taking the credit away from the OT. Meaning the OT takes all the crap because of it, I'm fed up with the SEs and constant changing, and I think the popularity of SW is going down because of them. Also there was a time when pretty much everyone loved SW but now if I was to say that I like SW I have to make clear that I'm only talking about the originals. I could care less about the prequels themselves, I can always not watch them and I'm doing just that.
