The line, "You could use a good kiss" is gone.

We get a flashback to a decent, if confusing abridged TPM. To avoid Anakin saying 'are you an angel' the conversation starts even MORE awkwardly, with Padme out of nowhere saying "I don't understand this place" to a kid she's never met.

and as soon as he was banned, or disappeared, everyone still kept talking about him and suspecting him to be behind any suspicious new troll or sock that crops up..

Sadly I think Spielberg has already mentioned this to Lucas to no avail. The quote on the issue kind of implies it.

I've never tried, but I've always heard that using DVDshrink to go from -9 to -5 does not give very good results.

who is this 'Dude' you refer to?   

 

The Dude said:

I'm the Dude. So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.

I can see why that question bothers you, DJ.

As for me I'm waiting for the Blus to be more publicly available so I can truly judge. I downloaded the V3 of Star Wars but only skimmed through it.

I fuckin' hate the Eagles, man...*

I don't get it. I saw Inception, I played Fallout, and I'm still being ignored.

Seriously though, I think the reason I'm still being ignored is ridiculous.

That crushing of the head is invalid now that my avatar is a Lego.

I got the car back now.  It is fine and all of my stuffs are still there.  Sure, you can start it with a butter knife, but I got one of those club things, so I'm back in business.

Did you get the tape deck back?  What about the Credence?

Man, watching the cartoon you'd never thing Mark Hamill would end up to be such a great voice actor. More importantly, I'm glad they removed the blow-up-Endor subplot, mainly because it mirrors Star Wars even more than having a second Death Star does. It make it just a little too obvious.

Also the problems with the Luke-Leia scene in ESB lie in the fact that it mentions the Wampa attacks on the base. For those to work entirely it would require serious editing of some sort, though I must say I did like the dynamic between Hamill and Fisher in that scene.

I remember my first spambot...

Did anyone else catch the new mumbled line from Obi Wan about Midichlorians in "Jedi"? When he's talking to Luke on Dagobah? 

Please tell me you're joking.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Back the fun truck the fuck up a second.
Someone expand on this. I have to know if this is true.

Well the entire Biggs scene at the rebel base is intact, including the "I knew your father" line. So I doubt they've retroactively gone after any conflicting moments in the extras.

I had a chance to see this at the Geffen playhouse while she was previewing it there a number of years ago; sadly, I did not go, although at the time God knows if my parents would have approved of the content! I have to say, I think she should have started making fun of her life a lot sooner (as weird as this sounds.) She's a really funny woman and probably could have made a bit more out of this routine. Of course, she's only more recently - say the past 5 or 6 years - been in a good mental state (and thank goodness for that,) so who knows how it could have gone beforehand.

Saw it on HBO, loved it. If this was an "off" performance I'd probably have died of laughter seeing a real one

A Wordpress blog made the cut and we didn't? Man, that's a major kick in the balls. Especially the "prequel society"...

I mean, I wouldn't expect us to what with all the anti-Lucas talk but for them to specifically choose a website that's the OPPOSITE of us - and a blog at that - ugh.

Because Nanner's being funny. it's kind of his thing.

Moth3r, could you possibly send Jay this way? It would only make sense to update now, especially given how the forums seem to be attracting more attention than the petition at the moment. Hell, if it's just content you guys need, I'd be happy to write up a FAQ. Perhaps user-submitted articles similar to those Zombie's written for his site would also be a plus?

Again, though, the 2004 site is a great reference as to how we should state our mission; how we elaborate could be discussed differently now, of course.

No surprise, I've talked to people normally in the know who regard this entire forum as total nutjobs. Granted, we certainly doh ave a few, but I don't think we deserve our entire bad rap... although the blu-ray.com antics really didn't help.

Anyway, I just tend to ignore these opinions because I luckily know otherwise.

Okay! I think I'm done with the set, though I'm not sure which ROTJ I like better.

and the set:


 

The more changes, the more nutjobs come to the site... :(

I have to say I didn't mind the added Halloween scene where the mom picks up Elliot's siblings, but all of the CG enhancements were pretty atrocious.

Spielberg just asked us if we would be upset if the ET Blu-ray only had the 1982 version. After our loud "No!", he said, "So be it!"

Blu-Ray.com said:

Episode I was shot on 35mm, but here it's been fairly strongly filtered so that grain is scrubbed out, giving a more video-ish appearance. I'm assuming this was probably done to give a sense of visual continuity to the prequels, but it frequently results in softened textures and smeared over detail. The application of DNR isn't nearly as egregious as it was in the notorious Predator re-release, but the image does look a bit off at times, with faces taking on that distinctly smooth, waxy quality that always accompanies excessive filtering.
