Topic: Lucas saved face as director?

In both TPM and AOTC their were subtle little mysteries that we all 'knew' would play out by the third film and surprise us all. Alas that never happened and these subtleties ended up being nothing but hot air which lucas put in there but in the end he couldn't deliver on. Ooooh the mystery of Syfo Dyas, the ordering of the clones, where did anakin and his mother really come from, and the explanation of jedi dissolving into ghosts communicating from beyond the grave.

Not only is he a crap director but he needs to see a doctor as I think he may have Alzheimer's.

customers won't buy them because they're packaged with the 2004 versions which they got when they bought the boxset and don't want to buy the same disk twice. that's all.

I never liked the pacing of the movie after OB1's death. do you plan to do something with that?

The PT was designed to be future proof.

In about 50 years or so if anyone is still watching old two dimensional movies on video screens the poor little 21st/22nd century tikes wouldn't get confused watching the movies in numericall order.

If I'm not mistaken the original crawl was done on a mechanical rig that spooled the crawl in front of the camera and then was composited onto the star field. I noticed that because of the close camera shot the original crawl had slight lens distortion at the edges, perhaps thats the reason for a digital crawl.

What a pathetic thread. Listen, star wars didn't die with these new dvd's it died the moment lucas announced a sequel to 'star wars' - a classic film, that was then turned into a franchise way back in 1980. and the same thing happened to alien.

Probably untrue. although Harrison Ford has agreed to do another Indy film. Perhaps star wars is next!

Your being duped by the hardware companies to buy something you don't really need (yet). x264 and WMVHD encoded movies on one standard dvd @ 720p resolution are plenty good enough for current HD tv's. Do you know anyone with a 1080p tv?

The sacrifice of Aslan had more emotion in the animated one, imo.

Lots of blockiness in patches of the same colour, ie blue sky seems to cause it lots of problems. Looks very soft to my eyes to.

If you've got a widescreen crt then it would improve the picture (less obvious scan lines) But if you've gotten yourself a digital display eg TFT or plasma then you wouldn't gain anything.

I'm thankful that we're finally getting an official OOT on DVD instead of bootlegs, and thats the bottom line here folks. I just wish we could buy it without the SE versions.

That's why they are being packaged as 'bonus' disks so home theatre 'head cases' won't start filing lawsuits against LFL because they don't come up to the standard you would expect for DVD. (Mind you it's debatable wether the 2004 versions meet DVD standards) So I'm afraid we just have to accept it as an 'obsolete work in progress' that Lucas no longer likes (and I say that with tongue in cheek, I don't agree with it!!)
