I’m actually pretty sure the “what the fans want” TFA quote is a pull from a longer quote where he specifically says they decided to go in a retro direction that he didn’t want to do, but I might be conflating two different quotes there, I can’t remember.

I think it’s called damning with faint praise

Edit: okay I only saw Silverwook’s post after this.

I don’t get it. SW is full of “anachronistic” dialogue. Especially anything Han has to say when he calls Leia “sister” in a very 70s way and references things like crop dusting.

I wonder why they ditched the feather on her head? Too hard to do in CGI in 1997?

The dumbest part is that it’s visible in frame before the song starts. They spent money on a CGI nightmare and still made a continuity error. Weird tusks are still gone in the animated short though.

Why would LF give that footage to CNN unless… UNLESS! ? ! ? !

Could it be?! Could they … be transferring the GOUT… to a Blu-ray set …as a bonus feature…

go to 30 sec mark. Is that OUT footage?

Definitely YES! Is it the GOUT Version?

Seems to be, yeah. Hrm.

Sy Snootles OOT design too.

The sound effect very end?

No clue! A video I saw said it was like Tony Stark building the Iron Man, but I don’t know what that would imply.

The Uninvited, a movie about a mutant cat living inside a normal cat is on Blu-ray.

Avengers Endgame. A worthy epic finale to a decade of great superhero movies. Five out of five Rocket Raccoons.

Can anybody can tell me what small bit I missed at the end because my bladder was imploding?

If you saw the uh… “bench scene” then you saw everything.

No, what I missed was most of the…

Thor talking with one of his Asgardian pals on a beach? I got back just as Cap wasn’t coming back from his time jaunt.

The movie could really have used an intermission. I didn’t even buy a soda!

Oh right,

Thor passed the leader mantle to Valkyrie and decided to just be himself. Then he took off with Quill for new adventures. He may or may not still be an overweight alcoholic.

What are some films someone could recommend watching for someone like me who enjoyed these films?

1. Shin Godzilla (2016)
2. Daughters of Darkness (1971)
3. Possession (1981)
4. Altered States (1980)
5. Black Moon (1975)

Godzilla (1954 not 1956)
The Brood (1979)
The Blood on Satan’s Claw (1971)
Berberian Sound Studio (2012)
A Scanner Darkly (2006)

This is a lot of stuff. It should be posted somewhere more prominently, or even turned into a video series.

Our protest might turn into results.

I don’t think anything sprung from a forum like this equals the millions of sales they get from doing nothing.

We’ve been boycotting for the last 16 years.

Maybe we should stage a protest in front of Lucasfilm.

I second this

If they care enough to appease a few dozen bootleggers on the internet with the OOT 4K version I’ll be very surprised.

Because if they include things to make it one whole “Saga” with explicit links to the PT and the SW Story films it’s unlikely they want any weird stray threads lying around. It’s always been a Special Edition. It’s always been one interconnected series. George Lucas was a genius and this was all part of his original vision. Solo and Rogue One were smooth productions. It’s all one nice brand friendly package and all remnants of the old versions will be swept away.

Most people—even SW fans—also don’t use Internet forums. People of the ‘vintage’ most likely to prefer the OUT are probably even less likely. For this and other reasons the web probably isn’t the best sample to analyze.

Most suspect that most people
A) Don’t know the difference
B) Don’t care and think it’s the same
C) Have never seen the OOT because they weren’t born until after it was butchered
D) Like the butchered version because the old effects are bad

EpIX will confirm my suspicions but the OOT probably doesn’t fit into the overall Disney scheme which is a big brand big connected mediaverse in which everything they release is nice and clean and never has production problems or revised releases.

I think it’s just because they rebranded and so SW will be the biggest part of the logo not the episode name.

Except for the conspiracy theory part, that was true.

Some kinda REDACTED

Gimme the gameplay.

Huh?

It’s both a weirdly specific reference to something that should not be used in a title, and another “Rise of” title that should not be used at all any more.
