I don’t think referencing the primary subject of this board is a “crusade”. Or how anything else I say on here is anti-Disney to be honest. Chill out.
Crazy I just saw another bigger version of that pic in another thread.
Nice. I used to have like a small print of that photo from somewhere, man that was a long time ago.
Temuera Morrison has (supposedly) been cast as Boba Fett in S2. Which means they want that 2004 ESB dub of Boba Fett to pervade into other media.
This only raises more questions.
Has there ever been a silent screening of any of the OOT movies with a live orchestra? I always thought that would be a wonderful thing to see.
Yeah, that would be amazing. The SE live orchestra screenings were fun, but kind of counteracted by the distracting SE changes.
I don’t care for the scores for the PT very much. I think a lot of the overkill with the music was to try and distract from what was happening (or not happening) on the screen. ROTJ is my favorite of all the scores.
Agreed. I think Williams realized that the prequels were extremely boring, so he tried to compensate with lots of epic choir music. Padme’s Ruminations in particular sounds more like Gladiator than Star Wars.
That’s because John Williams could see all the freed slave/Ancient Rome vibes even if the film makers were too incompentent to actually execute those ideas properly. He’s a pro.
George once said that ‘once all the older VHS tapes are worn out the only thing left will be my version’.
Looking at Disney’s negative attitude towards film preservation even just recently I feel like they have the same idea. Eventually people will forget that Solo had directorial problems. People will forget that Star Wars 1977 didn’t include Jabba. People will even forget that Splash didn’t include CGI censorship. The digital domain will be the only thing left and they will own it.
They might not even know what it’s about. If there evne is an idea. It seems like these projects get handed out so often to film makers now, some are likely to never materialise. Will the plans given to the Game of Thrones guys ever be used? Plus there’s the increasingly unlikely Rian trilogy.
Why is Ryan still here? I thought he was banned for his constant bad attitude long ago.
The dead speak!
They brought back the Brian Blessed commentary? Deal.
You know, it is kind of surprising that they went into this trilogy knowing the main character would be female, but they didn’t seem to even consider hiring a female writer. I mean, clearly there were female cooks in the kitchen early on, like Kennedy and Hart. And I’m not saying men can’t write women characters, but I feel like Rey might’ve lacked something that a female writer really could’ve provided for her.
The problem isn’t new perspectives but the lack of good writers in general. All those millions spent without having something decent on paper. And they could have salvaged something, but they let JJ near the writer’s room and they gave Terrio more work for some reason.

Damn that is some fascinating stuff Adywan
Oh god the Cruisers on the left that are wrong… and this is the famous shot with the most elements.
It’s a dumb knee-jerk reaction but then “female-centric” isn’t a narrative description. Certainly not one that should be in news like this. It would be more appropriate to actually say what the focus is; Jedi, Underworld, Military etc. So logically they must be doing this to stir up all the channels that keep ranting about that whole The Force Is Female schtick. Now there are only ever extreme reactions after all.
I think the compositing is vague enough here to support any interpretation as to where the lasers are coming from.
I agree. The Falcon fires only a handful of times in the whole battle and they’re all similar. In the opening TIE attack it seems to come from a central position. As they swing under the frigate there’s a shot from an extreme angle as it comes in from above, then another as it cuts to an interior cockpit view. BUT this is the weird one, because if you listen it sounds like a snub fighter blaster shot not the Falcon gun turret sound effect. Is it a front cannon or just an X-Wing off to the left? Then you have the part shown above as it takes out the Interceptor.
It’s kind of debatable though. Even as it swings around right after the “they’re going after the medical frigate” line it’s not clear which guns are firing.
In my memory there was a deleted scene with General Madine using the guns but it’s not how that happened.
There are no forward facing guns shown on screen though, only torpedoes.

Hard to say. Looks like a boom pole or something across the ground. Better pics are tough to find.
It’s been a thing for a few years. But this month was when they got in their with that hashtag debacle.
Man I do not remember the OG Rogue Squadron launching an air speeder in outer space like that XD
Disney wants to legally own your tweets for using a hashtag
Yeah but we’re talking about JJ. He couldn’t even leave the gay subjext in Star Trek.
