Great, now you made me think of this:

I quite liked Ender's Game. I don't remember too much from the book, but it was quite faithful to what I remember. It makes me want to see a sequel. That final test was really epic, and is better suited to a movie than a book. It's hard to describe complicated maneuvers like that in words, they've got to be seen.
I wouldn't go that far.
Never seen most of these scenes though. I guess they were omitted from the DVD?
Great work Duracell, now there are two of them. :P
I assembled my current desktop PC about three years ago for about this much (i7, GeForce GTX 260, 6 gigs of ram), and it's still perfectly capable of handling multiple layers of uncompressed Blu-ray video. That's not including the monitor though, that alone could be quite expensive. Do you have any components you could re-purpose, or is it completely from scratch?

Ah, this makes sense now.

What was the point of making everything look McQuarrie accurate if the animation is going to look this cheap and awkward?

DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
A cult of Nicolas Cage Worshipers turns into a major religion with the death of their lord and savior Nicolas Cage. In the official church doctrine, it is believed that the entire universe is the body of Nicolas Cage, of which they are a part. Thus they believe in other realities, but they think that they cannot escape from this one, believing themselves to be "in a Cage".
FINAL NOTES
This religion is quite secretive, and in fact they describe themselves as being quite cagey.
I'm having the same issue.
It claims that the site may be too busy.
It's clearly Deathsticks guy after he rethought his life and Hypnotic Penn.
Everything's up and running now, and I'm evaluating Premiere Pro CC at the moment. It runs quite fast, and there are a lot more options to sort through.
Here's a different test run on Premiere Pro to try and rescue as much shadow detail as possible. The broadcast is no help in this regard, so it's all from the Blu-ray:

It's a subtle change, so here's the before and after histogram:
As you can see, there's still some absolute black, but almost everything else is now out of that zone. Now all that needs to happen is integrating the previous Broadcast settings, and the blown out sections will be good.

DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
After a last-minute change of plans, this universe was set up to not allow people to ever forget their pasts, leading to a universe of people who fully realize why they are here and what they are supposed to do. Earth, as well as all other places in this timeline, has always been and always will be a paradise.
FINAL NOTES
People from that timeline frequently use their advanced technology to take vacations in timelines which allow forgetfulness, such as our own. If you ever encounter such a person, remember that they have probably forgotten where they put the keys to their time-space mobile.

Perhaps I missed something in the conversation, but it's stupid because we're out in space, watching events unfold. If "space sound" is heard in the ship, fine, whatever, but why would we hear it outside the ship?
I was only talking about sound inside of ships. Sound outside of spaceships shouldn't need an explanation, as it's the default way of depicting space in these types of movies.
Why is it a stupid explanation that the ship simulates noises for the benefit of the occupants? As I said before, it makes sense to give enemy ships a distinct sound so that gunners and pilots can orient everything in space. Imagine how disconcerting it would be to have to coordinate a defense from both hemispheres of the Falcon, especially without sound to guide you. All you have is the tiny monitor with little arrows for ships, and the windows don't exactly give a panoramic view of space.
I will fully agree that it's unnecessary to actually state this process, but I think it's quite clever as far as retcons go.
That's the reasonable assumption, but the plot of the OT hinged on the Emperor using dangerous Force sensitives for his personal gain.
Oh come on, that's not even canon. Keep to the official story please, the one where IG88 foments a galactic droid rebellion and takes control of the Death Star 2 to take pot shots at Rebel cruisers.
But Tarkin was still trying to find the Rebel Base, so he would still have destroyed Alderaan...
The Rebel base wouldn't have been discovered though, as Leia would have been killed as you said. The Empire would have gone mad with power, destroying all planets suspected of harboring or aiding the rebellion. As the Bothan spies are under the Emperor's watchful eyes, the rebellion wouldn't have gotten accurate plans for the station.
The Death Star would have been destroyed eventually however, as it would only be a matter of time until a high ranking Imperial Death Star technician would have his planet destroyed, leaving him with an axe to grind and a battle station to grind it on.
Now now, Chopper isn't a jedi.
...Yet.
So Ezra's another Jedi in training? How many of them are there going to be in this show anyway?
I see an AOTC image there, strange.
What?

I'll admit I'm a bit disappointed by yet another Jedi myself..
I was really hoping that there would be no jedi or sith or lightsabers in this series at all. I'm so sick of that. It's the least interesting thing about the Star Wars world to me and it's been done to death.
I think it's the least interesting thing because it's been done to death. Jedi and lightsabers used to be cool, man. Now I'd rather see a show about literally any other profession in the galaxy. How about the adventures of Professor (starwarsyname) and his class of young xenobiologists as they search the galaxy for only the most exotic plants and creatures to bring back to the Imperial Palace, fulfilling order 67: Entertain Palpatine While His Battle-Moon is Being Built.
I thought we did, but tl;dr.
Beautiful!
