Overall I’d like to see more new stories with Anthologies instead of exploring the backstory of a bunch of OT characters. There’s a lot of risk of de-mystifying characters in a bad way (See PT for a zillion examples of this)
Yep.
New stuff please Disney.
In a few years there will essentially be two prequel trilogies. Not a pleasing thought.
Beyond the apparently endless debate about resolution and film formats, this thread is basically in hibernation again right now. There has yet to be any real release details for any kind of restoration at all beyond the ‘yeah but I know a guy’ type of comments.
The only ones that make sense are where every line is dubbed. Which is why I can only watch the Auralnauts version.
The Empire Strikes Back (10/10)
Star Wars (10/10)
Return of the Jedi (8.5/10)
The Force Awakens (8/10)
Rogue One (6.5/10)
The Phantom Menace (2/10)
Revenge of the Sith (1.5/10)
Attack of the Clones (1/10)
Oh now your talking my language
Can’t find this if it’s already been posted. I thought this was interesting and I caught most if not all of the cues and callbacks he discusses.
Oh yeah we talked about that one. Somebody was like fuck that guy. And I was like eh maybe.
As for the whole repeat viewing and score listening sessions, I just don’t feel it. Star Wars is a perfect film. Or movie if you’re so inclined. But this is just sort of vaguely entertaining but mostly slapped together and not quite there as an average movie for me. It doesn’t have any Binary Sunset moments or even any Cantina Band type sequences.
???
Well then it’s time to put that to the test and throw the 6 year olds in the deep end 😛
Only you know your kids, you can’t really take advise on the internet about it. Some will see all the gruesome moments and really get into it, and their love of movie violence will flourish there. Others will shrink away from it and never be horror movie fans etc. Your call.
Darth Vader was supposed to be his first and last name right?
I should have expected to find you holding Vader’s leash
I don’t think these mildly perturbed images are working
LOL.
Okay so back to reality, I find it worrying that the headline says “triumphant return”. Meaning they think it ever returned. This with SE scenes being in the latest EA moneyspinner signals two instances where they have ignored there is such a new version, and would rather just forget the OOT.
I wonder how the article itself will describe the 1997 re-release…
No hate, just things that bugged me the first time around I’ve realized actually are rather large problems that I can’t quite ignore on repeat viewings.
The things that bugged more were harder to overlook a second time
I don’t think anyone here is as old or senile as George to be making offhand comments about slavery relating to a movie franchise
I genuinely wanted this to be the case for me.
From what I can tell it’s all just one big publicity machine. It’s hilarious how much he complained last year, and now he’s back.
How can we get people talking? Oh let’s drop George’s plot ideas, publicly, then have him bad mouth us, publicly. But what now? Let’s get him back for a mutual ego boost to get people talking even more! He’s an embarrassment, but we promised people surprises and have nothing up our sleeves, I guess we gotta roll him out. What else is he doing, small personal movies? Hahahahaha sure.

The CinemaSins people will hopefully be doing their take on Rogue One soon 😃
Eww
I like to think that the dialogue in the trailer is probably so out of context that it’s meaningless as this stage. If it even makes it to the final cut.
Ugh that Ronto scene.
Hah they didn’t pay all that money for it just to be passive

Computer Voice: There have been five versions with that name. Please specify by edition number.Scotty: 1977. No bloody 1981- 1997 - 2004 - or 2011!
Hahaha!
On the Death Valley pics - that’s great. I didn’t know some parts of Tatooine were outside of North Africa. I would love to check that out.
Well they are already doing the annual release thing now. Will they restrain themselves? I think it’s unlikely unless they have real concerns about the bubble bursting. Maybe they will not do the Marvel thing which has TWO annually now, but releasing less is another thing entirely. Unless they need that Christmas release window for another product line.

I said, go to Google and type unaltered and you tell me what the first or second search suggestion is
No what I am saying is that who has heard of Smuggler’s Revenge, and who even buys books? It’s a niche inside a nerd fanbase. People that buy movie tickets to everything in the latest ‘Cinematic Universe’ are not going to care because they buy what they are told to. A few hundred people looking on Google or a dozen phoney eBay sales don’t amount to the kind of numbers needed to sell a real product on the global scale Disney wants.
“I shot first” was said during the Smuggler’s Revenge audio story and the entire audience clapped and cheered. You don’t think people get that the films were changed?
Well, some suggest that the reason we don’t have the OOT on Blu Ray is because not enough people know or care about the theatrical cuts but we beg to differ
The real question is what is Smuggler’s Revenge to a mainstream audience?
