No love for my shrunken Death Star laser operators??

I also suggested more turret action from the Falcon, but that might be covered somewhat already in some of those suggestions.

What's the link for the video you did?  And not only is the turret suggestion on there, I liked it so much and I couldn't phrase it right so I just copied and pasted what you wrote and credited it to you! ;-)

Angel Blue01, I'll be adding some of your points to the list as well.  Thanks for the pictures, they really help.

Is there any feasable way to rearrange a lot (not all) of Yoda's lines so he isn't backwards-talking 99% of the time? It's a little over the top in these.

This.  It's like Frank Oz started doing a parody of Yoda and no one told him to stop.  Some people assumed that Yoda's backwards talking was due to being so old and in exile alone, but it turns out that it actually drove him saner!

Make the Death Star leave debris in orbit after the big explosion, even with two or three bigger sections intact, something like what happens to the Moon in The Time Machine:

One of the best things in the time machine was the cliff houses. I think something similar could be done in ROTJ?. Thanks for that picture it helps in many ways. ADD TO THE LIST 005

OK, I added the pieces of DS after he posted it, then added the picture.  You like the cliff houses?  for the ewok village?

Age appropriate for who?  As far as I'm concerned it's age appropriate for 0-120.  And I disagree about the plot hole part.   Pretty much all of the plot holes people have brought up are easily explained if one uses their noggin a bit.  But I do agree some of the humor is too corny or over the top, or just goes on too long.  And it does meander a bit the last hour or so.

Well, I for one felt VERY awkward in the first movie when they stop a scene to have a discussion on masturbation in front of my 9 and 14 year old brothers.  And the scenes in the second with the Deciptiwhore trying to seduce Shia would be the same, along with the random pot brownies.  I think both movies have several examples where "fun for the whole family" becomes awkward really fast.  Pixar seems to know how to make movies that appeal to both children and adults, and you don't see such a wide variety of senses of humor in it.

STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time

I was thinking about this the other day when someone mentioned it, and thought it made sense to keep the regular numbers since first time viewers need it for clarity.  And while I'm still pushing towards the normal numbers (I mean, we have "R2-D2" and "C-3PO" in a language that shouldn't have those letters at all), I can see that non-traditional numbers would work as well.  Think about Predator.  We have a totally alien number system that doesn't even make sense but its obvious what is going on there.

Am I too big of a geek...?

So, I ran out today and bought the big-big Millennium Falcon at Toys R Us since it was 50% off.  I showed my wife and she rolled her eyes and told me my mother would be giving it to me for Christmas.

Am I on the wrong side of "cool geek" here, or am I doing okay?

One to open and display and one to keep in the box.  I don't what kind of geek that makes you, but it makes you awesome to me!

Post Your Artwork Extravaganza Thread!!!!
Time

We actually met because of Star Wars.  I leaned over to see what she was watching on her iBook before class and she was watching Empire of Dreams.  I asked her if she knew that you could access bloopers on the disc.  She didn't and I couldn't figure out how to do it on her iBook, so we had to set a date to try on another DVD player.  Extremely nerdy.

Anyway, we found the pattern online.  I'm sure its still out there somewhere.

Hey Ady,

How about you do something similar to Luke's hand. Come on it looks like crap LOL.

This looks like another job for Ady's Hand!  It should have a cameo in every movie!

 Hey doubleofive maybe you could make those tubes glow a bit too? as if the tube is filled with the liquid makin the inside glow?

That's EyeShot's mockup, not mine.  I think they could glow, but it would be weird to install lights on something that goes INSIDE a person.
