This sort of thing?
To be fair isn’t the same as the “fake hand held” style. Not entirely anyway.

Those are just waiting for James Cameron to approve the new remasters.
The OOT is waiting for… a miracle at this point.
This movie was hilariously dumb. A huge rickety mess that I laughed out loud during. I kinda liked it. But it’s not good.
I don’t trust him. But I’ll let you know sometime Saturday. Until then, adiós.
Oof that 1997 X-wing vs TIE movement though…
But as others have mentioned the Disney stance on revisionism is very clear. George’s version of the story is like Walt’s version of the story now. Imagine in a few years if they wanted to make Saving Mr Banks but it’s about making Star Wars. Can’t have any pesky originals hanging about.
The words “not necessarily” carry a lot of weight, as does his “reasons I don’t quite understand.” It says he’s at a remove, and he’s not clear on what it is that’s actually happening with it, and more importantly, that he never really followed up.
No those words are of course dodging real answers to avoid giving away his stance. He’d love to see the OOT (because saying otherwise would annoy fans) but can’t say any more (to avoid annoying his current employer). It’s pro Q&A stuff.
Early April/Late March would be the same as the last two.

Are we a dying breed? Will this all be lost like tears in rain?
Yes.
Yeah but after the “I left a script under my bed” story how is this really news and not TROS hype clickbait. Guys it’s okay we’re back as a trio it’s gonna be great!
I watched Return Of The Jedi last night and caught something that I never gave much thought …when the Emperor tells Vader to go to the sanctuary moon and wait for Skywalker , he does not arrive on the moon until after nightfall .In the scene right after Vader has his talk with Palps ,the rebels land on Endor and a full day passes into night before Luke goes off to meet Vader . Was there that much travel time between Death Star 2 and Endor via shuttle ? Or did Vader go off and meditate for a while before departing ? I guess this could be open to a lot of speculation .
Also Luke says to Leia “Vader’s here - on this moon…” when Vader hasn’t landed yet.
Oh god.
It’s bad and they should feel bad.
I didn’t know about this Yojimbo film, but I guess for a good reason.
There’s no good reason.
^ there is no dark side of the moon , matter of fact it’s all dark…
Now there’s a reference I haven’t heard in a long time…

Yea They tried to match the color timing of all the saga films by what I’ve heard.
Yep. No need for the OOT ever to surface when it’s all one perfect saga after all…
A boom mic entering the shot is not really the same as a coffee cup being left on set.
It’s also something that should never happen outside no budget straight to video movies.
Withnail better not be messing with us.
Wait they fixed some things but put back old errors that had previously been corrected? I’m impressed.
That was the most emotional the PT has ever been ALOL
Probably?
I see what you mean, I guess custom cover art would be the way to go.
Why would there be one?

^ fair play to Lucasfilm / Disney for doing that.
Fair play. But they could have kept it behind closed doors instead of making it more PR.
Anakin already murdered a whole village out of “anger” in AOTC. So killing one extra guy is nothing. It’s not a turning point or a good example of characterisation. Is Dooku more human than the sand people and therefore a darker step along the path? Does Anakin even learn anything new about himself or the dark side? We may never know. There’s no apparent easier path, or any obvious seductive power.
Luke at least used dark powers to allow his easy access to Jabba’s palace, and fell afoul of his abuse of the Jedi mind trick. When he lashes out at Palpatine it’s the same, his temper does more harm than good. Then at the end with Vader it’s clear the strength he gains allows him to win the fight. But instead of seeing this as a great advantage he’s the better man and corrects these mistakes. If he was weaker he might have let the victory influence him in a different way, that’s why these moments in ROTJ work.
Vader’s redemption is certainly iffy, but in the context of acting selflessly instead of selfishly it’s enough. As long as you ignore his supposed child murdering days. In a broader sense he’s finally giving up all that power to remember his humanity. It’s less about killing one last bad guy and more about the sacrifice.
Jesus Christ…
I mean I kinda think Warwick Davis doesn’t look old enough there but yeah that seems to be what’s going on.
