Topic: My theory on when O-OT will come (Just a theory)

While I don't discount it as a possibility, it sounds more like a dream rather than a theory.

Anything is possible - 10 years ago no one would have thought we'd be sitting here discussing 6 Star Wars films instead of 3. They were always rumoured, but to come to fruition is something else.

So, it's possible, but highly unlikely. I think we'll see the O-OT when Lucas cacks, as much as I hate to say it...

Did some digging and it turns out that earlier this year a law was passed Federally that requires media packaging to be in both languages.

Other DVD's I've bought just had the French printed on the reverse side, which was fine, but not this.

It's not an English or French issue here, it's an artistic and aesthetic one. It just looks dumb with the other covers...

C'est la vie.

I bought the 'Revenge of the Sith' DVD today, like most of you here in Canada.

I am livid, though, as I just noticed that the spine includes the title in both English and French, thus breaking the continuity and flow of the set when sitting on a shelf.

Why do they put so much money and time into designing these covers and then slap the French title on there, destroying the look?

Does anyone know who distributes the DVD's in Canada so I can get in touch with them to request a cover which doesn't include French?

It looks really awful. I'm very dissappointed...

Cool - that way Maul can tell Anakin to:

Thank You all for your kind words - these were a lot of fun to make, and I can't thank Dark Jedi for his insight and help along the way, and of course thanks to ADM for starting it all.

In the spirit of things, please, please, please send a new link via yousendit if you decide to download the covers. That way everyone who wants them can get them and one person isn't doing all of the uploading.

Thanks!

My first inclination would be to say, "What a pain in the ass that would be," but if this site has taught me anything, it's that whatever you dream up is possible.

KOTOR would be the best choice. The cinematics are fairly detailed. The trick would be to take one quest and make it the central story. I don't think anyone would be interested in the court proceedings of the Kolto fish men - but everyone would be interested in the destruction of the Jedi Temple on Dantooine.

For action seqeunces, play through the game recording the quests which fit into the storyline which DOESN"T include opening every single damn box...and you might be on to something.

As far as something similar to RvB - those cats found a 'glitch' in Halo's code which made it possible to exploit the character's movements so they could control things to a large degree...

Imagine having the workprints for a new hope, the empire strikes back, return of the jedi and revenge of the sith. the only good star wars movies. Forget clones or p.m.

Technically Lucas' refusal to quit tinkering with his films render them all 'work prints.'

Yep - it stinks that the director of 'GOF' didn't even film the huge chunks of the book that they cut...I really wish the studio had of pulled it's weight and split it into two movies.

Be that as it may, that's kind of missing the point. This set represents one of the only (if not only) direct preservations of the 'Faces' set - which was the last time the 'unaltered' (I use that term loosely) original films were released officially.

Couldn't agree with you more. I have a LD player and the 'Faces' discs, but I don't keep the player hooked up regularly - this is nice for people to see the last officially released theatrical version of the the OOT.

The serialization is an awesome idea. Provided someone is OK with taking the DVD and making it look all old and grungy.

RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK REQUEST

I could be going out on an idiot limb here, but here goes:

Even since seeing the section of 'Making Raiders' where the film is shown in sepia tones, I've been dying to see the film that way. It had a really cool 1930's vibe to it, which is appropriate.

What are the odds someone could make a version of 'Raiders' with:

-Sepia tone/B&W
-Film scratches
-Mono audio to match the picture.

Anyone else think this is a cool idea? Any takers?

If that scene was being added for the next edition any dialouge about Luke would make the new Empire Strikes Back Emperor and Vader dialouge redundant surely

That's an iron-clad guarantee that the change will be made then!

Well, that was the germ of an idea. I was going for the look of 'Hogwarts: A History' or something, so the spine said the 'Harry Potter Literary Edition.' I got some more info on ADM's edit and realized that this particular piece was unsuitable to that particular project.

Having said that, I'm toying with the idea of getting a box template and turning the piece into a slip-case for the DVD's.

If you still want the case PM me - I can send you a hi-res text-free version to put whatever you want on it, if you're down with that.

Cheers.
