Does anyone have a screenshot of the shot of Lucas’ pad of paper that just says “STAR WARS EPISODE 1” from one of the documentaries? I need it for comedy.

Looks like its in here, but I can’t get it to load at work.

EDIT: I guess it’s not in there.

EDIT2: It was from the end of The Beginning, I was able to make my joke:

I’m looking forward to that eventual ‘saga’ trailer too! I’d forgotten about that.

That’s likely to be after ESB:R comes out now.

sorry if I missed it but what exactly is the “saga trailer”?
thank you

It’s a trailer featuring potential shots from all 6 Revisited edits.

I was asked to talk about my Top 10 Movies of 2016 on my friend’s podcast, so I had to watch some more movies from 2016 before I recorded so I wouldn’t have to have X-Men: Apocalypse or Deadpool in my list.

If you haven’t already recorded, I’d recommend the following:

We recorded Monday, but Hell or High Water was on my friend’s list!

So, is there still going to be a list of names added to the end credits? If I’m not mistaken, I tried and successfully made the list, but I can never be too sure.

We’ve got your real name on the list, but it was finalized some years ago, so I’m not sure exactly how it’s going to be handled in the end.

Argh! Makes me so mad to check his FB page and see idiots commenting that Ady is somehow scamming people for a new laptop. Effin’ dumpster-heads!

(That’s why I don’t have comments on the site)

Green Room

Super-intense, like a season of Breaking Bad condensed into 90 minutes except that you actually want the main character to win.

Sing Street

A story of a boy who makes a band to impress a girl, with great original music and 80’s classics.

Good episode. Enjoyed seeing Zeb on his own, and really liked the design of the infiltrator droid–evoked the look of McQuarie concepts for seethreepio

Dave Filoni says had he looked at the schedule and remembered this would have been after R1 came out, he would have made it a K2!

To be clear, we WILL be getting a Saga Trailer, as he promised a while ago. But it’s obviously not the priority. Cutting a trailer is a lot of work, more than editing the movie, I’d think. We already had at least one “final” ESBR trailer, I wouldn’t expect another!

I just purchased the collector’s edition of Exorcist 3. I’m interested in seeing the reassembled cut or whatever it is. It’s not the same as watching the film as originally intended but Morgan Creek lost the original footage. btw the TV series isn’t as crap as it should be but it’s as silly as it could be.
JEDIT oh maaaaaan.

I popped the disk in. But it seems to be the wrong fricking region. I was having such a nice day too. Oh hum.

Weird, a few days after this I got a MYSTERIOUS package in the mail that contained this very same Exorcist 3 set. THE VERY SAME!

Spooky!

Trump tweets to support LL Bean, but links to the one lady on the board who actually likes him’s side company selling lobsters, somehow screwing over LL Bean because now people will boycott it while promoting her personal business.

Good use of power there, Trump.

huh? him’s? and what do lobsters have to do with LL Bean?

OK, so LL Bean has a member on their board who supports Trump. The board denounces her for proclaiming any political affiliation at all. This board member also owns a company selling Lobster. What Trump does in his tweet is tell his supporters to shop LL Bean, while linking to the profile of the board member’s lobster company, making it so liberals want to stop supporting LL Bean while making conservatives want to buy lobsters from the board member’s side business. So Trump hurt the LL Bean board that rejected his friend by causing a boycott while promoting the personal business of his friend. Seems really shitty to me.

Han - Solo Movie ** Spoilers **

Alderaan said:

When I read the articles today the much more worrying thing about this movie were the things the co-directors (??) said. These guys sound like total bozos.

They are comedy directors, first and foremost, so they’re going to be a bit goofy.

And wtf would anyone want to watch a Han-Solo learning-from-his-mentor (?!?!?!) movie?

I’m imagining this is more like a Saw Guerra role, in for like 3 scenes and we’re left wondering why they made a big casting reveal for this.

The best thing TNG ever did for the franchise was make red the command division colour. So much better than pissy gold or milquetoast white.

I agree, the red does look way better as command. However, the command red shirts did kind of hurt the “red shirt dies” joke industry

Which was actually the point of Roddenberry wanting them to swap colors!
