I didn’t realize this page was for RotJR, I wondered which thread I was subscribed to that was debating love stories.

As for the lightsaber, of course Luke eventually picked it back up. He threw it away to show he wasn’t going to use it to kill his father. It’s still his lightsaber that he should have a spiritual attachment to (see TFA’s Family Saber).

Are people saying that it should be removed from the celebration? Can’t it just be implied he picked it back up while he was slowly dragging Vader’s body down to a shuttle bay?

Yes, if you had the preservation, you wouldn’t be asking for them.

Can’t you just watch the VHS versions and pretend they have commercial breaks?

why are they so hard to find?

Unless you really want the commercial breaks or the VHS distortion from an analogue recording I don’t quite know what the question is.

There was never any reason to preserve them.

As far as I know, they’re identical to the home video releases as they use the same master files.

Not that it really matters (as evidenced most recently by Thor: Ragnarok), but I wonder why Universal will always own the release rights to any future standalone Hulk film.

Did Marvel completely sell them off at some point?

Is it different from the situation with F4 where Fox needs to make another movie every several years?

I found this article on Hulk that should help:

https://www.forbes.com/sites/markhughes/2015/06/19/details-of-marvels-hulk-film-rights-fans-can-relax-about-sequel/

Looks like Universal lost the character by not making Ang Lee’s Hulk 2, but they managed to keep the right of first refusal for distribution, which means Disney would share some profits with Universal on MCU Hulk standalone movies.

As opposed to Fox, which keeps making F4 movies to keep the characters.

Do you think the TV version is different from the currently available official versions? Do you want something from the 80’s? It’s been shown on TV a lot.

I don’t understand your point there.

But when will you get the point? I NEED TO KNOW NOW WHEN YOU’LL GET THE POINT.

Do you want to recreate how you saw them as a child?

I use Kindle because my wife can’t see how many Star Wars books I own.

Remove the receipt number mods just keep I sent 20 dollars part

Are you… both people?

We’ll leave the conversion up to Ady & 1000 Challenge. 😉

We’re waiting on the go-ahead from Adywan.

I know it seems really important right now, but at 16 you have no idea what you want. You’re above normal in my book.

For some reason H40 being a thing makes me want to watch the other movies for the first time.

So I just read the mouse droid story in FaCPoV. Is Tarkin canonically gay now? Was that nameless officer someone else like Motti or Tagge? It had to be someone that high up, and all signs seemed to point to Tarkin. I’m totally down with the recent push for inclusivity in SW media, but making the creepy mass murdering Nazi-inspired villain gay feels like kind of a retrograde trope.

The voice actor in the audiobook definitely does a Tarkin impression. And his room number is “G[rand]M[off]-1”. It is odd, trope-wise, and seems to have gone under the radar completely. There’s an article on the fact that Bea Arthur’s character from the HS is a lesbian, but nothing on Tarkin.

There’s way too many contradictions and just silly stories in the collection for it ALL to be canon.

Did we ever get a comparison gallery of all the changes to ESB-R?

Not yet.

The DVD version (with amazing menus and special features!) is on fanedit.info.

i can attest to the veracity of all of these facts.

I can attest to the quality of the menu imagery.

So you collect movie tickets for movies you’ve seen, but you don’t care if its actually for the date, time, or country you were in at the time? Very interesting.

Sorry I can’t help you.

I’d never heard any of this, but as I mentioned earlier I find Spacey’s reaction really disturbing. I try to be objective in situations of a single accuser going after a Hollywood star for a crime committed decades earlier, but this doesn’t look good for Spacey.

People accusing Spacey of being sexually aggressive is nothing new. It’s just that this time he admitted it could have happened.

No, but I listen to my online friend John’s SMERSH POD.

He was pretty evil in TOS when you think about it and take him literally. He was a human trafficker after all.

The guy who has one robot peacefully take over a ship then maroon the crew on a planet where every need of theirs will be met (and is defeated by pantomime) is the same guy who

goes out of his way to murder members of the crew of a starship as many times as possible, then destroying the ship on the off chance he’ll be able to commit the perfect crime

is just jarring to me.

While I really enjoyed the episode last night, that’s exactly how I was afraid they were going to use Mudd. It makes his presentation as a lovable scamp in TOS completely inaccurate because he’s an evil person.

Personally, I think Tydirium should be the Sential-class from the SE. It wouldn’t take too much to make the exterior set look like the cockpit & the interior set would match well.

I think we pointed it out as soon as we discovered it.

Ah, yes, “reasons”.

1. Jedi use Ilum crystals, which only come in blue and green. Sith use synthetic crystals, which only come in red.
2. Jedi sentinels use blue crystals while Jedi consulars use green.
3. Kyber crystal colours reflect the affiliation/temperament of their users.

Blah blah blah bullshit.

Aesthetics and symbolism are the only valid reasons for any lightsaber colour.

How is it “bullshit”?

Because like most Legends canon, it’s trying to attribute a logical reason to things Lucas randomly decided because he liked the way it looked. 1 makes some sense, which I think is what nuCanon says, but the other two are trying to establish rules that the movies themselves don’t follow. See also: Lightsaber Fighting Styles.

But none of this is relevant for this edit.
