I have the final file, but I don’t think it would help this project.

Just another voice to back up this ^.

While the PT isn’t as great as the rest of the saga, a lot of us here do consider it canon and part of the full Star Wars story. So even though it’s understandable that some want to ignore it, please at least don’t make any changes that contradict it!

The PT did it first.

Examples?

Examples of what the Prequels changed from the Original Trilogy? You can find those on many other threads.

I’m sure there are very legitimate explanations for them.

Explanations made after the fact to try and cover up the bad writing

Oh come on, Ady! You know as well as I do that having someone die in childbirth 20 years after writing that her daughter remembers her is poetic and rhymes or something.

In Chapter 19 of Star Wars: Bloodline (a CANON novel), in a voice recording Bail Organa addresses Princess Leia “not expressing much interest in knowing who her birth parents were.”

This means that in that scene in ROTJ, Leia WAS, in fact, talking about Padme, because Luke clarifies that he is talking about Leia’s REAL mother and the recording of Bail obviously is from before Episode IV, which means Leia would have had some form of conversation about the adoption with him FAR before this scene happened.

The point is they shouldn’t HAVE to try to explain it on a novel decades later. Why not just write the new movie to line up with the movie you made years before?

Cool story.

I own the OG Battlefront II for PC with shitloads of mods. I honestly don’t need EA’s crap version.

Cool.

RayRogers said:

Maybe have the new trilogy take place thousands of years ago. Knights of the Old Republic slightly. Only worth it seeing in cinemas, not worth owning, even as a gift or a present. I’ve refused since 2006.
No, I don’t need to explain.

Cool.

They didn’t have to do that in ESB.

That’s cause they only built half the set for ESB. Apparently having two pits just eats the lighting budget.

Apparently HBO is showing the shifting AR version of Kong: Skull Island, much to the director’s chagrin:

Jordan Vogt-Roberts @VogtRoberts
Dear @HBO. Based on twitter, it seems you’re playing the AIRPLANE edit of Kong: Skull island that shifts aspect ratios. I begrudgingly made this version to preserve my original framing in certain sequences. Why are you playing this compromised instead of the original? Ugh…

Todd Vaziri @tvaziri
Confirmed.

While it’s apparently not the director’s preference, it seems worth preserving. Just an FYI for those with the tools and interest.

Hopefully Adywan can fix the bridge without building a full-sized bridge set in his garden.

I like how they built a full bridge set for RotJ just to not light it, put a console in the middle of the main walkway, then throw a car through it.

No, it’s ROTJ that only has three. The others have four and I’m hoping he’ll add one to ROTJ.
(that’s probably not what you meant, but.)

I didn’t get it at first, then I did.

You don’t think it will be as exciting for him to go back after everything he’s learned in the last 10 years and basically do it for real? I’d be excited.

FTFY

Polygon did a cost analysis:

It seems like now the controversy is that it’s random.

ROTS doesn’t have a single outdoor location shot in the entire movie. It was filmed entirely on a soundstage, which is why the outdoor scenes look incredibly fake.

Oh yeah?

Could we not have this argument here? It has nothing to do with anything.

I don’t see anything wrong with Molly trying their own hand at undoing the SE.

Awesome! 😄

Yes, this I’m excited to see.

No.

Press release on TPM 2001 TV Premiere:
http://ncam.wgbh.org/about/news/pr_11202001
Aired with “R2-D2: Under the Dome”

They are hard to find as they are over shadowed by easier, equal or better, official home releases. Working backward, the 2005 broadcasts would all match the 2004 DVDs. A digital capture might be slightly better resolution, if one surfaces. The 2002 versions would match what was aired on USA Networks through the 1990s, based off the SE. TPM 2001 Premiere would have matched the DVD release which came out months before. Can’t recall off-hand if the ESB tv premiere has surfaced, but versions from the next year from Australia can be found on the 'spleen.

What constitutes a better home release?

The fact that the TV versions would be the most recent home video version broadcast over the air (or cable) then recorded on VHS, which would be a multi-generational loss of quality, when you could just find the equivalent home video release.
