Clearly this was missed just before Ady scared us-- but please take a look....  This might be the most elaborate April Fool's joke I've ever seen in the Star Wars universe.... Click the "combat tactics" button....

Ever see a sarlacc superlaser?  You will now....

 This is all the proof I need that Fett is dead.  He fell in, and was shot by tentacle-holding blasters.  Sweet!

;)

Take me with you!!! Please!!!  I won't make a lot of noise and I'll clean up after myself!

I have the Taco Bell Episode I 4-poster set, laminated together; some air bubbles were unfortunately made in the process. I also have a few toys scattered here and there from the Special Edition release promos (ie, the ESB one with the mirror and Yoda on one side Vader the other). So you could say my collection sucks, as it's all prequel-oriented / special edition stuff. Oh well.

No offense, but that does suck.

I have a handful of toys in storage.  The only things I have out are a 12 inch scale R5-D4 and a smaller one next to it.  I've got them next to my SW DVD's.

I have just finished editing the trailer and I will soon be designing DVD covers, posters and avatars.  Thanks for asking!

And Frink, for the love of Mike, please change your avatar.    It hurts me head.

Sluggo : acts like he's never met us by being sad so many successful fan editors are being left out of the glossary and in favor of focusing on socks, trolls and banned idiots.

True, but no.

What brought me over to the site was the awesome works of the fan editors and the preservation projects.  I loves 'em.  I didn't get into the Off Topics until later.

Ick.  Outta here!

Jambe - too busy traveling the planet to finish his projects

MoveAlong - Knows the story of Star Wars

digitalfreakNYC - indy film lover

Darth Editous - was Adywan before there was an Adywan

daveytod - prequel documentary maker

I'm sad so many successful fan editors are being left out of the discussion.  Instead, we are still focusing on socks, trolls and banned idiots.

Eggs go well with spammage.

Somebody new comes in and their first and only post is a plug for some product?  I welcome the derailing.

I went to the first one.  Way fun, mostly because I went with some good friends.  

After that, I saw the Phantom Menace.  Now, I don't think I'd go to another.

This thread still going?

SKot needs to be amended to Holiday Special Aficionado and expert

babyhum - awesome archivist of the SW arcane

Those eggs were a lie!

This thread brings back a lot of weird memories.

That annoyed me about the coverage.  Just as I really got sucked into one game, they would switch to another. 

But I am still ahead of my kid brother in our bracket challenge, so I've to a smug satisfaction about that.

Not sure if this is what you were trying to point out at the end of your post IF (when mentioning the vanes), but it looks as though the vane Luke is hanging from changes position between these shots relative to all the other vanes.  Whereas all the other vanes seem to be static between these shots, the one Luke's on moves.  The difference in position can't be attributed to the camera moving, as all the other vanes appear in the same position in each frame.

Sorry if I'm just repeating what you said, but it's a noticeable error, so I wanted to be clear about it.

 This is one of those differences between the 35mm version and the 70mm version.  The earlier 70mm version has Luke just falling off the vane and out of frame.  We assume that Luke landed on the Falcon, but aren't sure, especially when Leia calls back from the cockpit to see if they have him.

To make the scene more clear, George had the scene tweaked and added the Falcon's sensor dish to the shot.  To make room for this addition in this  shot, they had to re-matte Luke on the vane.

See evidence below from the Puggo Edition thread:

GOUT DVD:


Same frame from the '85 Laser:


And the same frame from the Super 8:


Again, this corresponds to the 70mm cut.

I believe this is the first confirmed visual evidence of alternate footage existing within one of the films!

Syracuse just blew my bracket all to hell.

All of my socks are dirty.
