Sluggo

I wonder how Bazooka Joe lost that eye?

No, they did sell the '04 release individually as well.  The box set just had the Bonus Features disc with the Empire of Dreams documentary.

It would have been a real random fact if you had posted it without the picture.

And he was joking Warb.

So was Warb.

That's classic.

Why do people keep on saying the scene with the added "Nooooo" now mirrors the scene in ROTS? The scene without the audio tweaks mirrored a scene in ROTS already and was a lot better than Vader's "birth" scene.

...

Sadly, I doubt Lucas intended these scenes to mirror each other. People who think the added "NOOOOO" is the perfect mirror to the one in ROTS sadly misinterpret repetition as a form of mirroring.

It isn't, it's lazy storytelling that over explains it for sake of the few who don't understand what is going on. Even as a child, I enjoyed the scene in Jedi because despite the mask, you knew what Vader was thinking and no dialogue was needed. Then or now!

Can someone explain to me how mirroring makes for good storytelling?  Granted it makes the films interesting, but wouldn't the fact that the film deals with the Jedi vs. the Sith/Empire and center around the Skywalkers be enough?  If you really want mirroring, run all six movies through a black magic program and overlay all the scenes.

One could argue that the movie 10 Things I Hate About You was designed to mirror Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew, but the fact that one was designed to mirror the other isn't a guarantee of quality.

I could design a £16 note on my computer, and if it looks like other legitimate notes, it doesn't make my own version valuable.  Mine still remains a counterfeit.  

Someone needs to educate those fans that insist on the superficial analysis of these movies that cardboard archetypes moving in synchronization is not what makes these movies good.  They aren't using any critical analysis, but just looking through the glass darkly.

Mirroring is really best if you are building a house of mirrors.

It looks like Best Buy still carries it, but it is definitely unavailable from a lot of other websites.

He's not wearing his eyepatch.

I wouldn't say talent is frowned upon as much as it is certain musical forms are expected of groups.  

That's why I never understood the outrage of hate on folks like Rebecca Black or the Jonas Brothers or (insert group or artist that markets themselves to 13 year olds here).  

I'm not the right demographic, so why should I complain if I don't like it.  I don't complain if I find an episode of Thomas the Tank Engine boring.

So Lucas have got that scene revised three times now? :) I wonder if he will finally get this scene right for the fifth attempt when they get their 3D release. It seems to be a complicated scene to get absolutely right.

Don't forget about the workprint version.

Good idea, didnt see that until after I started this

Found it!

Best villain to love to hate: Kobe Bryant  I hate him like I hated Darth Vader in 1977-1980.  The Black Momba is just bad to the bone, asking "Who's your daddy?" while draining threes or blowing by you to stuff the net.

Best villain to hate: Tracy McGrady.  I hate him like I hated Darth Vader in 2005.  A whiny spoiled little boy sulking on the bench.

Best villain to love:  Tom Brady.  Ol' Captain America has those sweet locks and mad skillz on the gridiron.  Besides, it takes a truly humble man to marry a woman who makes more money than him.

Other: Pete Rose.  Come on, Bud!  Let the man in the hall!

"It might be a trap!"

daveytod,

with the new stuff coming out, have you thought about revisiting your projects?

I was a Jawa for Halloween in the 4th grade.   That was enough for me.

I can go on and on,I'm that upset over this Blu ray fiasco. It's like Michelangelo changing his statue of "David"s unit's size...would it make it a better and more impressive statue or simply make one of the most famous pieces of art into an almost pornographic joke?

I guess it depends on if you are talking about increasing or... nvm.

The Phantom Menace

Everything about this single shot works for me. 

 

*speechless*

It's a strange world we live in.

And the distance between the Falcon and the Slave I feels more comfortable as well.

That's the way I feel about the Han/Greedo shootout.  I loved the character of Han blasting away Greedo through the table.  Very iconic scene that shouted volumes about his character.  Then the SE changed that.  lordsidi, I can relate to how you feel.

And Thermostat gets un- ignored.

In light of this, I am removing one person from my Ignore list.

Moonraker has Roger Moore in it.  He made a pretty good James Bond.
