Since Tarantino loves using Samuel L Jackson, why not imply that Windu turns into Vader?
That way you could still have the suit and the Vader hints if you’d like.

Yes and everybody in star wars looks normal and like a natural person you’d see who didn’t do anything to alter their own appearance!
People in Star Wars generally look normal for their contextual environment. Holdo is on a Resistance capital ship fleeing the First Order. She’s not on Canto Bight. And no other human in Star Wars canon bothers to dye their hair wild colors. Why she would dye her hair purple as well as pile her hair into that crazy hairspray-intensive hairdo, while in the circumstance she faces makes no sense.
Recoloring her hair to a normal shade would make her more believable in such a serious situation.
Looking like she belongs with the fat cat weapons dealers is kind of the point though. Poe (and the audience) don’t trust her because she doesn’t feel like a part of the Resistance. If she were just another commander, would we have bought Poe becoming mutinous?
Having watched the first two episodes, I’m ambivalent about the enterprise. It’s definitely feels like an old TV show that’s been remade with a huge budget, and I like the scope and more realistic depiction of the universe. I just worry that the plot will be too simple to justify these huge vistas.
Those look really nice! The extra brightness makes everything really pop. It looks like the shadows are rather crushed though, and some gradients have shifted too green. But overall it’s a big improvement.
The theater we saw this in was quite noisy. At one point three of us had to turn around in unison and ask the three people sitting behind us to shut their pie holes.
As for the movie itself, it was a long movie that seemed to fly by, keeping me engaged throughout. Few of the sad moments took me by surprise, but I was suprised by the sheer amount of humor in it, especially in the first half.
This isn’t the best Marvel movie since by its nature it’s overstuffed with heroes, but given these restraints I’m hard-pressed to think of how they could have achieved a better result.
Highly recommended.
My headcanon has long been that the slaughter was just a dream sequence that George accidentally edited as if it really happened. This makes sense of Padme treating it exactly as she would a bad dream.
Nah it’s George thinking… hmm what would a bad person do? And then child killing becomes his only character trait besides whining all the time.
Your characterization of his thought process is…kind of outrageous. It’s unfair. How can you be the creator of Star Wars and not be a genius?
I’ve done a quick color correction of the first reel of poita’s 1997 SE scan, which also serves as a color reference next to the technicolor references for my regrade. Here are the Tantive IV shots and a few Tatooine shots as a bonus:
Not necessarily an error, as it probably is how it was graded in the first place, but seems the closeups of that one rebel soldier have noticeable more mint color in the walls than surrounding shots.
Yeah, poita also noticed the color balance of the SE print is all over the place.
Watching STAR WARS SE theatrically in 1997…during the LEIA/VADER scene on the Tantive IV…I clearly remember the color timing actually changing within a single shot…Leia’s skin tones clearly fluctuated during one of her responses. I saw it multiple times at different locations, so it was not merely a screwed up print.
Quite a few shots in the Blu-ray change color through their duration (Sometimes I had to blend two corrections through a shot), so it’s probably a case of degradation in the negative after 20 years.
They’re right about one of those two.
Aw come on, we know you love Poe too.
Everyone drops the shields for Poe, even #teamPhasma.

A computer cannot go against its programming.
I think it might be good, I’m imagining something like Netflix’s new Voltron series.

This is new. I wonder what Frink will make of an ‘anime’ Star Wars show.

I guess now it’s pinned. I was hoping that we would just keep it at the top of the page through constant spamming.
Now the only thing that bugs me is the ‘an’ in the title isn’t capitalized.
These clips share the same weirdness of Rey and Leia, then cutting to the Falcon exterior, then back to the group shot.
One more note about that vaporator shadow:
It definitely should be rotated to the left and thinned, since shadows can appear to converge when they get nearer to the horizon:
Also, a vaporator that close to the horizon should be extremely small with a shadow that is practically invisible.
…thanks alamy.
Maybe we’re seeing TFA Luke from Rey’s perspective, whereas TLJ is from Luke’s perspective.
Chewie looks quite different here. More stocky and younger somehow.
I don’t hate it.

Just one of his hands.
There was some pertinent discussion here:

In short, I think Rian tended to give characters too much explanatory dialogue, so cutting the lines about selling her for drinking money would probably work just fine.
Sometimes I can still hear his voice.
So…was the dragon the beauty?
I’m going to say yes.
After thinking about it a bit more, there may be a third option for completing the Kylo arc. Rather than 1: Achieving total victory or 2: Being killed, he could just walk away from it all. I imagine it could play out where Rey creates some new, stripped-down version of the Jedi without all of their rules and hangups, and Kylo could realize that he really doesn’t have any problem with this interpretation of the Force. He realizes that even after destroying everything that reminded him of the past, it still haunts him, and that he’s the problem, not everything else. He helps Rey defeat the First Order and return peace to the galaxy, then disappears from the story for good.
