I posted a picture somewhere in the General Star Wars discussion a couple of years ago of Luke gazing at the trio of Force ghosts at the end of ROTJ and being surprised to not only see Hayden is Anakin, but also Ewan is Obi-Wan and CPY is Yoda.  I can't find this picture anywhere, and I want to show it to my wife.  I'm sad. :(


 It looks like the picture was here.

The picture link is broken (at least for me). Looking at the next page, Doubleoffive put the picture on twitter so it may be retrievable ?

We need this picture back.

Who?

JEDIT: Sorry guys, I'm not sure how I posted it, but it wasn't hosted through Twitter.

Star Wars Battlefront
Time

Split-screen couch co-op.
Offline play.
A buddy system where you can always be teamed with and spawn with your buddy, and you share unlockable weapons.
These are all incredible offerings.

Campaigns for multi-player focused games always go poorly. It's better we don't pretend the same character fought and survived every major canon battle in the game. It made sense in Battlefront 2 because it was clones.

At the end of Vader #4 you see the next cover which features... *gasp* a yellow lightsaber?! For some reason I am not fond of the idea that there are tons of lightsaber colours, it's already bad enough that we have a purple one and a black one in the canon for that matter. What do you guys think of this?
Ahsoka has a yellow lightsaber and her cartoon is canon already.

If you want to run into others, just head straight to the airfield. Pretty much guaranteed to get your head sniped off. =P
What's funny is that our friends decided we needed to finally run into people, so we went to high population server and went to the airfield. They were sneaking around so scared, so I finally just sprinted out of the woods screaming and shooting my gun into the air. Nothing. No one.

I'm still of the opinion that this entire game is just a gaslighting campaign by my friends to get me to stock up to fight off people who aren't there. ;-)

I don't recall ever being captured by bandits and being given a blood transfusion by force as a means of execution in Minecraft. =P

True story by the way, luckily it just so happened that I was compatible with the blood and survived. They were very disappointed and ended up leaving with all of my stuff and spared me. That was in the first 20 minutes of ever having played.
Well yeah. But that requires running into other people. Which we deliberately tried to do last night and failed completely. The main game is staying alive, which isn't the game I want to play. I need goals.

But my wife and friends like it, so I'll keep playing with them.

STAR WARS: EP V &quot;REVISITED EDITION&quot;<strong>ADYWAN</strong> - <strong>12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW</strong>
Time

We ask that you own the release the edit is mainly sourced from. In this case, the Blu-rays. Alternatively, the digital copy that comes out Friday will do the trick.

Oh, you're asking if you need to own the Prequels. Not for the original trilogy edits, no.

Star Wars Digital HD Release .... April 10th

To me, there is very big news here.  They are including Episode IV which is supposed to be owned by Fox.  This means they worked out a deal with them to be able to distribute the complete set.  This means we might actually see the originals released and the fact that Fox owns a portion won't be a show stopper.
Fox doesn't own Star Wars, they're just the only ones who can distribute this. However, you are correct in that it does show that Disney/LFL has worked something out.

STAR WARS: EP V &quot;REVISITED EDITION&quot;<strong>ADYWAN</strong> - <strong>12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW</strong>

I do try to keep the Wordpress up to date.

There will be several official versions released:

Blu-Ray 720p BD-25
DL DVD PAL
DL DVD NTSC
720p mkv
Special features DVD-5 (only needed for mkv & DVD version as all these will feature on the Blu-Ray)


Personally, I bought an external Blu-Ray burner for $80 at Best Buy, which means I'm sure you could get one cheaper.

Has there ever been a good comedy sequel?

Sorry, what I stated regarding Ghostbusters and the sequel is verifiable fact.

I've looked into your theories and have done a large amount of research myself and It all checks out-
Ghostbusters 2  was a disappointing piece of crap in 1989 and it smells even worse now.
This has gone too far without the definitive proofs of GB2's badness:

Our Very Own GafferTape's dissection

We Hate Movies' revelations

My friend went to a Q&A with Paul Feig the other day, he said his Ghostbusters is a reboot because Sony tried to get him to do a sequel for about a year, but all the scripts were about the GBs having fallen on hard times, which he thought was stupid since they'd be heroes. Which means that Paul Feig understands more than the original writers did when they wrote Ghostbusters 2 a handful of years after the original.
