I let my wife know when Season 5 of Mad Men went live on Netflix Streaming a few weeks ago. We decided, eh, we didn't really care anymore.
Last night, we thought, we might as well see if its ok. Then watched half the season. Somehow it feels better than before. More coherent.
I think you can run Harmy's file through Handbrake, the "normal" settings will play on the 360.
I guess that means no internet for the next 3 weeks.
I never referred to them by number until the prequels came out.
Pretty sure the novel called Kenobi is about... Kenobi.doubleKO said:
I can only see Mark Hamill. It looks nothing like Ewan McGregor or Alec Guinness to me. The power of wishful thinking?
Harmy created "rontoscoping", which is removing SE elements from the movies.
Adywan created "cantina-izing", which is manipulating mask/puppet facial features to be more expressive.
We're very verbose around here.
He calls them "parts 2 & 3", which is interesting to me.

Well we were in our mid twenties back in 99 so Disney wasn't something we were necessarily interested in, frankly. TPM was a huge lump of disappointment for us.

^That's disingenuous - Disney was producing quality material back then.
Thank you for your spam. It's quite lovely.konglong said:
You might be moving too fast. Sometimes it takes a bit before the advanced editor kicks in.
I'm not sure exactly what shots are being replaced (not all of them, I know that much), but since Adywan is not building a full-body suit, he couldn't replace it even if he wanted to (which I don't think he does).The Nerd said:
So you're saying that the shot will not appear or it will be refilmed along with the rest of the wampa shots?

The Emperor is now saying the original lines, but its the "new" voice. I'm not sure what sample video you found, but that was done a few years ago.
As for the Wampa doing the hokey-pokey (he put his arm in, now he's shaking all about), I'm pretty sure Adywan agrees with me that is probably the worst shot of the SE scene and must go back to the cutting room floor from whence it came.

I want to hear a commentary with some of the people involved. The problem would be, the answer to every question would be "I don't remember, I was pretty high at the time."SilverWook said:
Since there has been a trickle of H.S. merchandise over the years, finally releasing the damn thing (with a retrospective in which everyone involved has a good laugh) would be the next step. I fear some music licensing issues might come into play though.
The last movie Mrs. O'Five and I watched was Children of Men. We decided to bless you with a recording of us talking about it again.

I liked "Hide". I'm not sure why, I was NOT looking forward to a haunted house story. But it worked itself into a Good Timey-Wimey.
I can't wait for the 50th. I want to see Tennant & The Old TARDIS (which is also the name of my Mumford & Sons cover band).
Swain's reaction to the mention of the EU will be my reaction in the Revisited threads from now on.
I say this with nothing but love...
I was hoping that was this video by Five Year Mission:

Speaking of them, check out their stuff. They're a band out of Indianapolis that is doing one song based on each episode of Star Trek. It's not a parody band or anything, they're well-written songs covering a variety of genres. Check out Arena and The Naked Time, they're two of my favorites.
Started reading my #1's on Mrs. O'Five's iPad. Wow, that's SO much better.
All-New X-Men
Reading these randomly means I keep jumping in and out of the timeline. Just like Beast in this comic somehow.
Avengers vs. X-Men
I love the concept of this.
Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe
Deadpool murders the Fantastic Four. Ok.
Uncanny Avengers
I wish all Marvel comics were numbered by in what order they should be read. I'm confusing myself. I like the idea of having a mutant on the Avengers after all that apparently happened between the 1's I've been reading.
Uncanny X-Men
These old comics are hilarious.
BEYOND MEMORY ALPHA! That's the title for my next Trek novel.darth_ender said:
I've always enjoyed Trek, but my interest in it waxes and wanes: it's always something I like, just not always something I think about. But I definitely have recently had a resurgence of interest. Phase II in particular is extremely interesting to me. I'll have to check out all these books you're recommending, as they sound so very interesting. Also I'm curious about Planet of the Titans, but I know very little about that or where to research further Beyond Memory Alpha.
UHD is impratical for home video. Besides, the modern SE/prequels were CREATED in 1080p, they would have to start from scratch to have new source files for a UHD of Revisited to even be considered. Besides, the file sizes would make traditional sharing options useless.
You realize you're going to have to pull from the GOUT for EVERY SINGLE WIPE in ANH and ESB, right? And most if not all of the model shots? That might get tedious/insane. At that point, you might as well watch the GOUT.
I'm not saying I'm not interested in the project, I'm just pointing out some considerations.

I'll then be taking about a year off while i finalise all the plans for the rest of the saga, before starting any video work on the remaining movies.
That's about it, though Spock does mention his human mother and his father being a Vulcan ambassador before "Journey to Babel". Continuity in TOS is a fleeting thing, you must treasure it when it comes.
That's awesome! Some friends of mine who've never seen TOS are watching random episodes based on how ridiculous the Netflix summary sounds.FanFiltration said:
My apartment mate and I have been working our way through TOS for the last few weeks. We made the episode selection a game of sorts. My friend will give me a stereotypical and common Star Trek related situation, theme of Character element. I then pick an episode that fits his request. Some of things he has suggested and the episode I have picked are as follows...
Shuttle Craft related = Metamorphosis
Mutiny = Turnabout Intruder
Spock uses a Vulcan Power to save the day = Is There no Truth in Beauty
Gee, what smooth floors your cave has = What Little Girls Are Made Of
That sort of thing. It's been an entertaining way to pick what episode to watch. I've personally done the chronological and production order more then a few times, and this has been a nice change from that.
Sorry, I was talking to Frink.TheBoost said:
They'll never stop. They spent 4 billion.
doubleofive said:
I thought you were stopping after Episode 3.
That would be terrible! Especially if the writers kept writing THE SAME PLOT with conflicting continuity between them.TheBoost said:

I don't understand. He was really great in that show that only lasted one season, but got cancelled before it could get really really really really really really really really really really really really stupid.
Are you talking about that great mini-series Heroes? I'm so glad they never did a sequal miniseries, or even worse, spun it off into a weekly show.
