Robot Chicken did a lot towards making Fett seem cool to me again. ;)

Nothing quite that blatant. Some fellow named Jack Mehoff was often listed as a production assistant though. The teacher was pretty pissed when they finally noticed it, after someone else pointed it out to them.
Someone else found a few seconds of a porno in a box of donated broadcast tapes, and got their laughs heavily pixilating the image, and using it for a backdrop on a couple projects. That this person reminded me of a character in Videodrome just added to the surreal nature of my college days.
But you don't have to draw the same characters over and over all day long for years either. ;)
I didn't say I understood it, but I've seen evidence of it. It's not too far removed from all the dirty jokes hidden in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, before Disney caught on, and erased them all.
It's probably on the same level as office humor. My father and his co workers used to circulate dirty jokes and cartoons in the era of xerox machines and faxes. It would be very un-PC today of course.
My classmates back in college at the tv studio pulled all manner of questionable jokes, some of which made it to air.

Pixar should just do some porn. That way no one will be happy.
Odds are they probably have done naughty things that will never be seen by the public. Animation is a stressful job, and animators do things to blow off steam that would seem strange to the outside world.
I've seen things from old cartoons that were most definitely not fan art.
The saber (and hand) didn't have to fall down the same shafts Luke did. It looks like the massive air currents affect Luke's fall in ESB, so the saber could end up elsewhere and caught on something.
When it was eventually found, and by whom is anyone's guess. It could have been an Ugnaught or a maintenance guy, who kept it as a curio until someone Force sensitive showed up.
Which is what they did with the Leonard Maltin intros on the World War II cartoons.
With Disney movies airing on TCM a couple times a year now, I'm hoping they find some way to show it.
It's hard to find a real sentient walking tree for the animators to study. ;)
At least people can still ride Splash Mountain at the parks, and even get their picture taken with these guys. ;)
Robot Chicken rips off Frink?

How do you feel about the current state of CGI? Good enough (for Star Wars 7?), have you given into accepting it more or less, or still bothered by CGI characters?
I think Rocket and Groot were the first CGI characters where I stopped thinking about the FX and simply accepted them as real.
I'm guessing the CGI characters in Episode 7 will be otherworldly creatures that would be difficult to pull off any other way. As opposed to the clones in the prequels.
Yeah, it was very difficult not to want to respond to that rubbish. (Others have been lurking and using our site the same way.) He was just parroting the same things every other person who's never actually seen the movie does.
And everyone, please avoid the temptation to go stir up trouble over there.
Someone was bashing that thread on Twitter recently, and used nearly the exact same description. How coincidental!
In any case, you're taking this thread far too seriously.
In a similar vein, Jabba should be stoned out of his mind most of the time, (maybe one shot from Jabba's perspective showing the hallucinatory effects of smoking frogs?) and actually enjoy Leia throttling him. ;)
Vader did call him that in the Holiday Special. ;)
It's not luck, it's skill. Fett knew the Falcon was hiding somewhere close by. You didn't see the other bounty hunters hanging around in the garbage field.
Fett unfortunately was drunk off his ass on Jabba's barge. That's my theory, and I'm sticking to it. :P
If Boba was still in business, and somebody needed someone found, he's probably the one you call first. And bounty hunters work for anyone who's paying, not just the bad guys.
Woohoo!
It's a darn shame that exclusive content just vanished into the ether.
I kind of felt bad for those cartoon roaches back when I was little. ;)
He's probably playing Ric Olie. ;)
I recently installed Unreal Tournament 2004 for old time's sake, and then I found someone had made a Rocket model for the game! :)

Maybe have it down the street from the official marathon?
And invite the staff of this site next time? ;)
He could also just be a new character who has similar armor. We've already seen an extra wearing a black OT style trooper helmet.

Finally saw this. i think you all oversold it.
We are Groot!?
It was the profanity in the image, not the boobs, and I can't recall what the specific rules were three years ago anyway. They've been modified more than a few times.
But will the new Topps book smell like bubble gum?
