Star Wars: Episode VII to be directed by J.J. Abrams **NON SPOILER THREAD**
Time

Isn't it early to start writing a script? Isn't that something you do the week before shooting?

Oh wait, Lucas isn't writing it. ;-)

But seriously, I'm more excited to have Kasdan/Abrams writing it than Ardnt. Gives Kasdan almost a show-runner role for the new trilogy, which is what I think it needs. You know you're making at least 3, make them three parts of a whole, not just three stories.

so is this "cut content" on every laserdisc ?

 

I ask, because some time ago I could have bought the saga on laserdisc at a fleamarket :-/

my only problem would be: I don't have a player to watch/copy it ...
No, this is not a commercially available Laserdisc. You know how nowadays filmmakers scan their film into a computer (if they shot on film), so they can edit on the computer without cutting the original film apart? LFL was trying to do that before it was cool. What they did was scan all of the film they shot onto separate Laserdiscs so they could figure out which parts of which takes to use from the discs, then record the timecodes so they could go back to the film to grab only the frames they needed. Remember, this was before hard drives could hold more than 20 seconds of video.

What was for sale was one of these discs. I'm not sure LFL actually used it for the actual editing of RotJ or just to demo the system they were trying to sell, but either way its raw, unedited footage from RotJ.

I'm sorry for the silly question, but i still haven't figure what is the ROTJ laserdisks that is so important to get? What is their content?
You know how people wonder what was left on the cutting room floor? This is a digital copy of (some of) the cutting room floor for RotJ.
