Speaking of mverta (shocking, I know), does anyone know what he is up to in addition to Legacy? Is he on an actual work project that’s keeping him from talking here, or have there been no updates purely because he shouldn’t talk about it right now?

He did the music for Independents’ Day. Oh, and some VFX for it. WAIT, he’s also IN it! Now I have to watch it.

Other than that, he could be doing anything.

BACK FROM THE DEAD, HERE COMES THE COMICS THREAD!

I picked up the IDW Ghostbusters that Humble Bundle had recently, which contained all but the Mars Attacks one-shot crossover and the TMNT crossover series (that I had already purchased on sale last month).

I really, really enjoyed it. The early one-shots aren’t that great, but the direct lead-in to Ongoing Series 1 and everything after is so good. The writer really gets each character and their voice, my mind even went to the different voices when the Real Ghostbusters showed up. The art is fantastic, and each issue has some reference to the RGB toys, usually through ghost design but there’s one issue where they flat out fly Ecto-2! One later issue had the guys wearing the see-through goggles that came with a nerf blaster toy that I had as a kid! The whole thing was so much fun.

The plots are good, tying together GB1, GB2, and the Video Game (the player character is running the Chicago franchise!) while adding new villains and bringing back old ones. The fact that the writer wrote the upcoming “Tobin’s Spirit Guide” and both of the recent board games really gets me excited about those projects.

Obviously Ady isn’t around to ask - but perhaps someone else could fill me in -

COCKPITS!!! Is this going to be filmed in the UK or is it with the second unit in the US? And would there be intentions to film content for PT:R with these?

Last I heard, cockpits were going to be filmed in the UK. I think OT only at first (PT stuff would require different uniforms and cockpit configurations).

But yes, Ady’s plan is to put people in full sized cockpits.

Oh, and just had a thought, perhaps the moment Padme tells Anakin she’s pregnant, you could throw up a Windows Blue Screen of Death (or replace his face with one) for a beat (comedic length of your choosing). Or a pop-up error over his face… (the markdown thing inspired this comment).

It could go over his forehead, kind of like when his internal monologue gets the black box when it swears.

Wherever it goes in the film, I agree with 005 that it should be in the credits. First and second (maybe even third?) listings.

I don’t think it really fits in the credits.

WRONG IMAGE
YOU’RE WRONG

The idea I came up with is that you tried to create the credits using the new forum software.

So now the question is - how to use that idea? 'Cause I want to use it.

I want to use it in this movie, not Jedi, as who knows if forums will even exist by the time I get there, and we’ll all be long dead anyway. Certainly we’ll have forgotten what it means.

So…which scene/shot should I do it in? And is there any way to explain it to the rest of the world, or is it just one of those random ot.com references that no one else will get? Is it this movie’s “Deliberate Creative Decision?” Should I…put it in the crawl?

Just replace the credits with it. Show it for like five minutes, then quickly go through the actual credits.

On second thought, 5 minutes is a bit much, maybe 1 minute.
