Is the 404 one a joke, or an image link that no longer works? It’s a bit cluttered in any case.

They’ve owned Lucasfilm for 5 years. How long do you think it takes to greenlight and execute a film restoration and release exactly?

It’s amazeballs that some of you were carrying your pitchforks to George’s door after a couple years, but after 5 years you’re all card carrying Mouseketeers. Give me more sequel crap!

It’s called giving Disney the benefit of a doubt. If the 40th anniversary comes and goes without anything, the pitchforks will be dusted off. Although at this point, some projects around here are so good, we might not even need an official release anymore. It’s Disney’s loss if it comes to that, because we would like to give them all our moneys, as they say.

And there are at least two people on this forum who know a hell of lot more about film restoration and internal studio politics than you. 😉

Thank god for Republicans, who are sure to stop the damn dirty lazy poor kids from stealing from taxpayers just because they’re hungry.

Sheesh. Do they lie awake at night thinking up new ways to be cruel?

Only us poor taxpayers are footing the bill for his ego stroking now.

Ah, okay. It actually sounded like the “heartbeat” sound the sickbay scanner on Star Trek makes. 😉

How do you change your username?

Make a new account.

Don’t do this without telling a moderator first. Socks get banned and you’ll get banned to.

banned to where? i wanna know.

There also has to be a good reason to make a new account. (Like an unrecoverable password.) “I don’t like my username now” doesn’t cut it.

Definitely improved. What is that sound after Threepio says “I’ll pass”?

I don’t think that dead Taun Taun has any meat left on it’s bones at this point. 😉

I’ve heard Joe Piscopo is contemplating running for Jersey governor. If you recall one of his early SNL characters, you can appreciate that even more. 😉

Wait, Tyrell was a replicant? I thought he was just a really good bartender. 😉

The Wrath Of McCain. 😉

I stand corrected. 😉

Eating Meatloaf never ends well. 😉

And Frink will never get this joke.

I wanted to do the last Anaheim one, but the costs just got too high for me with other bills to pay, and nobody to room with. (Smaller cons don’t have those kind of hotel prices.) I also don’t do too well standing in infinitely long lines on hot sunny days.

For those of you going to Orlando, remember you are OT ambassadors. No drunken partying, or trashing hotel rooms, or giving Jar Jar cosplayers a wedgie. 😉

I wonder who this mysterious Product Name character is though. 😉

Some of these changes could also be improvements to the costumes so the actors have more ease of movement and comfort.

As OT trooper armor changed a bit by ROTJ, the circle is now complete.

End me already. I can’t wait.

LOL! I know the feeling. 😉

Alleged teaser trailer breakdown. (Which is supposed to be unveiled at Celebration in April.) As always, take with a large grain of Sodium Cholride. 😉

Didn’t they used to refer to it as a space soap opera!

Just space opera. IIRC, the term had been around long before Star Wars.

I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks. I do! I do! I do! I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks. I do! I do! I do! I do!

Weird, had to check to make sure you’re right because that’s not what I remember, but yes it’s there (but only for the same reason it’s there in Avengers - the film was still distributed by Disney).

That’s certainly possible. Either way, anyone who doesn’t think Disney will start doing 4K releases of their own at some point is just fooling themselves.

Also my main point ended up being that it’s important to remember that Disney released the Phase One box set even though they only originally distributed one of those films, which is promising for SW.

Oh, I know Disney’s going to start releasing stuff on the format eventually. It’s just super annoying when all of the other major studios (even lionsgate) jumped on within only a few months and yet here we are almost a year later and probably looking at Rogue One being previous-gen format only. Hmmm, where have we seen that before with a Star Wars movie? Hint: I’m not talking about the GOUT, which was actually released several months after hddvd and blu-ray debuted.

Disney is always the last on board. They dragged their feet on DVD for the longest time, initially only licensing out a handful of live action films to Anchor Bay. And here we are in 2017, with some of the animated features still not on Blu Ray, and an appalling lack of anything else from the studios vast back catalog.
