I welcome Tatooine, it just wouldn't be Star Wars without a quick trip there IMO... as long as it is just a quick trip.

Yay it looks like an anamatronic, latex-faced, puppety, small-person (Old Chinaman*) thing!
Die CGI, thy rain of terror is ended! JJ Abrams knowest thou not!

Ryan McAvoy said:"Stay on topic"
Why did you say "Stay on topic" with quotes around it? Just curious lol
It's this SW meme...

dont harsh my buzz with drama.
Sorry, shouldn't that be "Don't be harshin' my buzz with yo drams".
fishmanlee said:
"We are not going to attack"
The way that line is delivered makes me cringe.
"Stay on topic". That's not an error.

Not to mention that Natalie Portman looks hideous in it.
You have got to be fucking kidding me? That's like saying Carrie Fisher wasn't really hot in ESB. Such lunacy!!!
I think Ric is referring specifically to the balcony scene in ROTS. It was clearly shot in the usual round of disastrous PT pickups, as Natalie looks much thinner in it, than in the rest of the film. Also her hair is all over the place unlike in the scene just after the nightmare, where she is in the same costume but looking curvaceous and with a decent hairdo.
On that subject, another terrible line is from that post nightmare scene, where Padme says "I doubt the Queen will continue to allow me to serve in the Senate". What?!?! You'll be sacked because you are pregnant, what kind of sexist f**ked up dark-ages operation do they run on Naboo anyway!? This line really made me question George's attitudes.

Davinci Resolve.
Weren't they a Snyth-Pop group from the 80s?
AOTC Threepio "I'm quite beside myself" and "This is such a drag" *sigh*
AOTC Yoda "Around the survivors, a perimeter, create". I know Yoda speaks in broken English but hell bloody! I changed it to "Around the survivors, create a perimeter" and it sounded much better.
Basically, any line that has the title "Attack of the Clones" written somewhere above it in the script.
My curiosity got the better of me.
Yeah "Film Editing by Ben Burtt" was a pretty bad one too.
and
"Stunt Coordinator - Nick Gillard" is up there.
Jar Jar's first lines in the jungle. 15 years later and I still can't make out what he's saying to Liam Neeson.
On that topic ^. In the last reaction shot of Vader just before he kills the Emperor somebody has polished his helmet (LOL) but in all the previous shots it is caked in dirt and dust from the battle he's just had with Luke.
The fire brand not fully connecting with the droid's feet and the steam jet being off in Jabba's Palace.
Background of Droid's feet being lifted onto the skiff isn't at all convincing. It looks like what it is, a painted board a few feet away.
While not a true error, more a limitation... it would be nice if Max Reebo's fingers could actually move properly in time onto the piano keys along with the tune he's playing.
Another 'limitation'... make the Gamorian Guard's fingers move properly.
Sort that tentacle out that grabs Threepio. Daniels does his best with it mime wise.
Ewok eye beads being missing in the back of a couple shots.
Cab of the AT-ST that gets crushed between two logs feels empty. A more suitable explosion is needed.
Animated smoke from burning Cab of the AT-ST that Chewie blows up isn't that great.
Lando's voice echoing when he says the "That was too close" line.

That isn't an error, it's a bad decision. Errors are things that weren't intended to be in the movie the way they were.
^ This. Please everyone read what RicOlie_2 is saying before posting... unless it's a joke then post away ;-)
So I've been watching Masterchef over the past few weeks. One of the finalists was called Luke so a few SW jokes enevitably got thrown in, "Use the fork Luke" that kind of thing.
The final episode had a segment about his life and an interview with his sister (Sadly she wasn't called Leia). All the time I was watching it, I was imagining the Masterchef footage being swapped for Star Wars scenes and it would work perfectly. Hopefully an enterprising YouTuber does it :-)

More important than references, the original trilogy continues to strongly influence the majority of science fiction/fantasy and blockbuster films made today.
I very much doubt that. What's popular at the moment? Action hero films and Peter Jackson's Tolkien adaptations. Both of which we'd have if Star Wars didn't exist.
For a start... movie trilogies wouldn't be thing, for there to be a LOTR trilogy.
The "magically appearing swarm of Tie fighters" is the biggest problem for me. It's a nasty glitch in what are otherwise the best space-battle FX ever commited to film.
bugsy malone comic book
While not exactly a change "That Nobody Talks About" (More something that isn't talked about / cared about enough)...
...is the opening Logos. To me, it just isn't Star Wars if it doesn't start with the beautiful original hand painted Fox logo and the clean crisp green of the original Lucasfilm logo (That stylistically matches the simple blue of the "far, Far, away" titles). Presenting Star Wars with the ersatz CGI logo(s) and overly showy new Lucasfilm logo is a total disconnect in film styles. They are films from the late70s/early80s so they need to have titles that match frm that era.
It's really important to me and not having them will slightly spoil ESB:R inevitably... I'm sure my disappointment will be swiftly overcome though ;-)
^ Mmmm, a thing of beauty.
^ An abomination unto my eyes! and I don't want the name of Murdoch's other Evil Empire polluting the image.
The fact that this...
"Going forward and looking at the much bigger picture, there are more dubious rumors to consider, like Disney potentially phasing out the prequel trilogy by lumping them in with the “Legends” non-canon fodder. This has apparently been the subject of gossip near Disney, though it’s very possibly just that – gossip amongst the worker bees. Anyway, it would allow for a reboot of sorts, with new prequel movies featuring Yoda, Darth Vader, etc."
...is even a rumour, made me chuckle and have a better day.
^ Sweet. Muchos grassy arse!

I thought this was clever.
That looked great and assuming the SFX in the actual film are going to be even better... daaaammmn!

No kid's going to see TPM and think, "hey Jews suck, right?" Nope, that's not going to happen.
Quite the opposit, since Watto is the about the only likable and charismatic character in the PT.

^ Re anti-piracy promoting piracy ^
My mum wanted to buy me Morrissey's autobiography for Xmas on Kindle from Amazon but despite 1/2 an hour of total bafflement, she discovered that you can't 'gift' a Kindle book. Which is just crazy.
So plan-B, she purchased an Amazon voucher to the value of the E-Book and gave me that. On Xmas day I then spent another 1/2 hour or more trying and trying to purchase the E-book onto my Kindle and eventually gave up. "Please Amazon I'm begging you, all I want is to do is give you my Money!".
Plan C, I spent the voucher on a DVD and downloaded the E-Book illegally. It downloaded in seconds and I could read it immediately. No fuss, what service these criminals give to their customers! However I then found that my Kindle wouldn't accept the book no matter how many times I uploaded it seemingly because It had not gone through Amazon's software?
Skip to 5 months later and my Brother bought me the actual book for my Birthday. Praise physical objects, you never let me down!
