So… is the only real movie The Mando one or is that going to be cancelled after the fact WB style?
I think we firmly established that Yub Nub was better in the last thread. Trust me.
I couldn’t find one unless oojason has something like that, but here’s a 1980 interview I came across in my search, just for anyone that wants some light reading:
One of the funniest I saw (probably on here in the past) was the clones Obi-wan sees are supposed to be eating in a big room but the all bowls are empty. The ones on either side are busy cutting into nothing.
Well you know what I mean, especially considering anniversaries coming up, or the way SW is celebrated ever year both on May 4th and the actual release date. I don’t think a print from 1929 is the same, but of course both should be kept safe and preserved for the purpose of film history.
Someone should interview Christopher Neame about playing Jerec too.
Yeah it’s all kinda weird that they have this, but no other screenings are planned. And that Kennedy claimed for years nobody knew where a copy could be found, when fans have worked on their own for ages now. So I guess it existed for a moment that has now passed, seen by a handful of people in one tiny corner of the country.
Sigh…
I read the screenplay for ROTS, or at least the one that came with a “The Art Of” book in 2005. At the time I thought it wasn’t so bad. Probably because I could imagine it with less cringe and not so many weird performances.
Jealous. Does this kind of technicolour version form the basis for any current fanedits?
For those asking whether Lucas knows about the screening, it was approved by Lucasfilm. Kathleen Kennedy was there & paid tribute to George & ILM. She said there were big plans for Star Wars’ 50th anniversary but there was no indication of a wider release of the original cut.
That would really be something.
The brightness alone is totally different.
You’re writing a fan fiction?
Mia Goth joins the cast
Mia Goth is set to join Ryan Gosling in Shawn Levy’s “Star Wars: Starfighter” feature which will begin filming this Fall in the UK.
Gosling will reportedly play a character that must protect a youngster against evil pursuers. Goth will play one of those pursuers.
Goth is reportedly taking the same role that Mikey Madison had been circling before her deal fell apart over money.

Yeah that seems unlikely but it’s pretty funny, especially when the “insider quote” was that he’s the Ahsoka guy not the Andor guy. Just a few years ago there would have been a positive buzz. A normal producer with long time movie business experience is more likely, if Kennedy ever really goes. Which is also unlikely as usual.
The only part was the Force healer scene, which did something interesting for once. The character being played by the violent detective from last year’s Kneecap threw me though (good movie btw) but I guess that’s range. And another anti–authority story in its own way.
Oh I bet they love us over there.
Noise reduction is something that came along in the HD era to reduce film grain (like the notorious Predator Blu-ray) while before that DVDs were usually plagued by different problems caused artificial sharpening since the movie would have been crushed down from a higher quality. So that’s two separate/opposing issues from different eras. I would imagine the current streaming version is closest to what is being sold on BD now. Are there no AV club style reviews?
I can’t find a copy online but it’s possible another member has a screenshot.
This thread loses much of its point when it’s just shamelessly biased.
This thread is rife with this stuff lol
I think that’s stating the obvious. Unfortunately there’s no alternative topic titled George Lucas: Star Wars Creator, One True Omniscient Genius…
So did Shmi need help working as… an interpreter? Or something more seedy… did she get sold to Watto for being pregnant? Ugh.
This did not age well
Because they didn’t use his work beyond a teaser, or because the art they used was kind lame? Or both lol
In any case Struzan’s work was not favoured by studios for a long time even before he retired. In the “Art Of” book that Hellboy one above specifically came up as being rejected after Del Toro wanted it, then found he had no decision making power.
Well everyone else in the movie is as dumb as rocks, so that’s consistent. Why did Owen (or Cliegg) need 3P0 then but says in SW that he has no need for a protocol droid? What job was he built for anyway?
I’ve only posted one interview to contrast it with another, so if there’s more info feel free to add it. You said the same thing twice without a source, I’d like to read it.
Well I don’t think anything else is needed there especially with the pacing. There’s the change between Luke and Ben selling the speeder and the spy walks to towards camera, before it dissolves to Ben’s “we ought to do well” line… I don’t think it’s that bad. Unless anyone really wanted to see how Luke found R2 and C3P0 hiding behind that door? Maybe cutting out more of those two parts would be smoother.
Dark Empire was pretty basic and occasionally silly, a newer full movie version could have worked if it was more complex instead of dumber.
The awkward part is the repeated exposition and the first reveal of the Falcon being changed.
I feel like everything’s riding on the Mandalorian movie, a lot of things could just be scrapped if it doesn’t pan out commercially. I mean they could be scrapped before then too… as is the case with so many other things they announced.
