'The Mandalorian & Grogu' (Upcoming Movie) - General Discussion Thread
Time

https://www.darkhorizons.com/mandalorian-film-to-shoot-in-california/

Lucasfilm’s upcoming “The Mandalorian & Grogu” movie just scored big time with the help of the U.S. tax office.

Deadline reports that the California Film Commission has offered the production a stunning $21.755 million in conditional tax credits to ensure the production shoots in the Golden State.

I think they’ve become confused here though:

It’s also the first time a “Star Wars” film has been shot in California – even as multiple Disney+ series set in that universe are filmed there.

They airbrushed the microphone out too. Maybe to erase a signature on a version that was for sale. Funnily enough some copies online have this version and then added their own watermarks over that, editing it further.

The end of Star Wars physical media
Time

https://www.darkhorizons.com/sony-to-handle-disneys-physical-media/

In a major story over on The Digital Bits, the outlet reports that Disney and Sony have just done a major deal that will see Sony Pictures Home Entertainment take over all of Disney’s physical media production going forward.

The hope is that if this can lead to Disney releasing films more efficiently on disc, they may start releasing more of them. Unfortunately it’s doubtful they’ll come back to markets they’ve abandoned (eg. Australia).

'Rey Skywalker' (Upcoming live action motion picture) - general discussion thread

They didn’t do anything worthwhile with the dyad in the last movie, it’s hard to imagine that it would be worthwhile now. Kylo Ren, aka the only person with characterisation, is still dead. I would imagine they’re going to ignore this whole idea and try another soft reboot. If it ever gets to production.

First new, verified change between AOTC 35mm theatrical and AOTC home versions!

It’s perfectly aligned with the frame and has a string of perforations on one edge. So a physical object of some kind, surely?

A quick search of Attack of the Clones film cells for sale shows that they have a strip this same teal color along the edges (part of the audio). But the reason for this artefact will have to be explained by someone else.

Ridley Talks Future “Star Wars” Excitement

"I was like, ‘It’s wonderful.’ It’s wonderful to be part of something that people love and to play a character that people… It’s so weird.

It’s really making me emotional thinking about it. I get to have more adventures. I’m like, ‘Where is she now? What is this new adventure and how are things going to go?’ That’s a long way of saying it’s great. It’s really great.”

This random discussion appeared in the main Despecialized thread and I thought it was worth sharing around.

There’s a recent post on fanedits Reddit page about Despecialized having been mentioned on a recent Conan O’Brian podcast. Hmmm…

Any links?

I haven’t actually watched it to confirm, but I think it might be this:

For everyone, it’s at 7:28 into the video that the despecialized movies are mentioned. The whole Star Wars bit starts at 4:55.
