Well maybe lots of people enjoyed it when The Hobbit looked like a daytime TV reality show, but I hope it doesn’t come back.
One of Vader’s lightsaber hilts from ROTJ is being auctioned. It’s… expensive.

Darth Vader’s Hero Screen-Matched Lightsaber from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)/ Return Of The Jedi (1983).
Hidden from public view since its use during filming, this lightsaber now emerges for the first time in over 40 years. We are incredibly proud to present this grail-worthy piece of entertainment history and welcome all inquiries from collectors and fans alike.
Estimate: $1,000,000 - $3,000,000
If they can’t make gold standard movies like Star Wars and Indiana Jones work why bother.
Firstly that one Ecks guy said the new version of SW had grain, which sounds more realistic as a leak.
Second what are they talking about 8k 120FPS, that’s not a thing right? I mean I hope, the high-frame rate stuff always look like utter crap, I thought it died out.
For a thousand bucks I’d expect it to be the full globe at least, yikes.
does anybody know what hapend with this site? https://starwarsarchives.com/
it´s a long time offline…😦
It’s been “coming soon” for years, you have to go back to 2021 to get anything

Interesting but vague. Does anyone here believe that screenshot he posted was legit? It’s not a lot to go on.
A rumour where one dubious source is reporting from another

Plans for the post-Episode IX era have reportedly been revealed
• It will be similar to the Mandoverse with multiple stories
• The first story will be Daisy Ridley’s NEW JEDI ORDER
• It will build toward a culminating event that brings back old characters

It’s got to be the Maclunkey version, especially after that Kathleen Kennedy speech about the BFI print being super rare and whatever. Even the name has been revised again! The sequel trilogy era convention of losing the numbered episode is still in effect.
Edit: the online press thing claiming this is a “once in a generation event” is weird too. Like, is it the 1977 version? If it’s not why is this such a special event? If it is are they going to put it into a vault for a few decades and not stream it until a new generation grows up? What are they talking about?
re-release of the 1977 classic back for a limited time, in theaters everywhere.
Star Wars: A New Hope
What the hell are they going on about, jeez.

the question is: what do you want from me?
Some screenshots.
Please post some screenshots of this.
I think the dancers/singers were new additions (even with the same actress who falls in the pit) but the ending has extended 1983 bits with Wedge and Lando. Beyond the Biggs on Yavin stuff in ANH I can’t think of anything else off the top of my head.
I… what? No. That’s not how anything works.
😄😄😄
After two months the legend post something on the forum. Love the despecialized editions, I just showed them to my grandmother, who’s never watched any of the Star Wars films, and she loved them. thank you for your work.
I read your posts, I especially like the $£200,000 part. Thank you for the laughs.
Please post some screenshots of this.
Here’s the “rumour”
Because now the well-known “Star Wars” YouTuber EckhartsLadder reports that documents have been leaked to him by a source that prove that Lucasfilm is working on a restoration of the original theatrical versions of all three titles of the original trilogy. He assumes that the plan is to make these available on Disney+ as an extra in the future.
So, I have a fairly big, genuine bit of Star Wars news to leak.
In short: Lucasfilm is in the process of restoring the Star Wars Original Trilogy for public release. Probably on D+.
And there is proof.
I’ll explain as much as I can, though there are limits to what I can share. pic.twitter.com/09sXXaiqcY

Yeah, I think Mocata was being somewhat sardonic or flippant
I would never.

Edit: wait I could have sworn nobody else posted to answer this above… weird
“This is some rescue (she mouths something like AH!) (cut to Han shooting) … you came in here didn’t you have a plan for getting out?”
Possibly after the first part she’s just getting bashed by Luke’s costume or the pyrotechnics caught her off guard, and then they just spliced the second half of the line from another take? There’s probably some editing and dubbing trickery here.
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.
