Really enjoyed that.

Nice one.

Were Yoda and Obi-Wan not ‘broken’ by events earlier in their lives? It would seem Luke is too in TLJ, and understandable given the circumstances - not forgetting his path to a change of heart towards the end of the film - sacrificing himself to do so.

For me, I like it more after I left the cinema. The more I think about it - and I am, weeks after it’s release - the more I’m understanding it and appreciating it.

(That’s not to omit the parts I personally thought didn’t quite work - yet I never went in expecting a perfect film - I’ve never seen one yet. Well, there was that one short film on pornhub…)

I don’t think the Luke and Obi-Wan/Yoda scenario really are comparable. For one Obi-Wan and Yoda didn’t do anything bad to Anakin, like considering to kill him before Anakin went all psycho. Secondly, Obi-Wan and Yoda didn’t just hide under a rock on their own accord, waiting to die. They were forced into hiding by a Jedi purge in a galaxy controlled by the Empire. They also actively tried to improve the situation by going after Sidious and his new apprentice. When that failed, they hid the twins, and bided their time, until the twins grew into adulthood and the Rebel Alliance had a fighting chance.

And despite the above, they remain characters still ‘broken’ by the events earlier in their lives - in the context of a reply to ‘while there is a place for gritty and broken heroes in cinema (John Wick, John McClane, etc.), doing it to existing heroes is a step too far for me’.

Here comes a new one: I liked the look of those junior novel covers they have in the library. So I did one based off that. The gimmick is that each film has their own coloured case.

I like those a lot - especially the different coloured cases for each too - though what do you mean ‘junior novels’? 😉

My Star Wars novel came in a cracking Star Wars tin (and erm… a doodle book). The tin’ll be housing some old SW dvds soon enough 😃

Love the disc art used and those simple yet elegant back covers - nice one 😃

She is indeed a Northern lass - born there and spent much of her upbringing there - as you can tell from the accent - which I too hope she keeps, though it may be a little toned down.

All the best Doctors are from the North 😉 (runs out of thread before any soft southerners pull me up on that!)

Happy Birthday suspiciouscoffee.

^ Very nicely done that. Cheers for the link mate - will come in handy 😃

Was just messing around in paint for a different Faces-based project…

and this very basic idea too (was playing around with OT ‘trilogy’ logos etc)…

Quality all those ChainsawAsh - personally I love the ‘boxier’ style logos - especially for the Prequels.

Nice one 😃

Doesn’t sound very promising for “Solo” even if only part of this rumour spoken about in the below video is true…

Serious question - do you just watch YouTube videos for all your information?

Frink - leave this alone, please.

We should all be a little wary of these opinion / click-bait videos and articles - let alone the more mainstream media 😉

Star Wars is an easy brand to generate misleading publicity on - and even if the some of the opinion and insight on there is of note - it should probably be taken with a pinch of salt.

Sorry Jason but I’m not buying his diplomatic talk over everything else he has already said about the matter on top of his reaction after his first viewing speaking volumes about his feelings on the matter. I think he’s dying to say what he really thinks about the whole matter but at the same time doesn’t want to jeopardise his role in IX by pissing off Disney.

This video pulls some of those comments together along with his post viewing reaction, though I wish it didn’t have the bleeding heart violin music over the top of it all.

That’s ok mate - I’m not asking you to buy anything 😉

Though this is just a twitter ‘like’ from the man himself - who has gone on record to give a more accurate portrayal of his feelings towards the film (likely, after seeing some of those opinions distorted in videos where his many interviews are cut together, out of context, to portray something he may not agree with).

If I were in his shoes I wouldn’t be too happy with that - and I don’t believe there are many that would be either.

Though that’s the clickbait nature of the internet - especially social media - these days.
 

You are correct - what is it with the music in these videos?

CONFIRMED - OOJASON HATES ALL MUSIC IN VIDEOS - CLICK HERE FOR PROOF… 😉

Just release all films sepperatly on each of their 40th anniversary

A little late for that…

True but they could release to coincide with Solo: A Star Wars Story or a release of The Last Jedi if possible

I meant a Blu Ray that may be 4K

Mate - you’re talking to yourself 😃

Searcha yoursa feelings - yousa knows it to be true!

AveKender said:

Is Disney really just going to hope against hope that the billions of movie-watchers who heard Snoke himself utter the phrase “Knights of Ren” in the previous film will never wonder what become of the KoR?

We are only two parts finished of this Sequel Trilogy - there is a reasonable chance that the Knights Of Ren may be mentioned again - or their story told - in the final part of this Trilogy.

If not - you indeed have a valid point. Until then though…

these where leaks from people on the steve Hoffman forums so maybe it is bullshit Idk

Mate, if you’re going to make claims as you did - then it is a very good idea to have sources to hand to back them up.

Or, if it is just hearsay from other people on a different forum then say so - and don’t make an assertion that is then later backed up by ‘so maybe it is bullshit Idk’.

Jedi Master Skywalker said:

It’s well known within industry circles that the plan was to release the OT’s theatrical versions in new 4K transfers prior to ‘The Force Awakens’ but the 1977 film needed a lot more work than initially thought - Disney even went so far as to ask the Library of Congress for a scan of the print they’ve had in their archives since 1978 - and so it was put back until the 40th anniversary in 2017… But we haven’t seen them yet so maybe 2018 to coincide with either Solo: A Star Wars Story or may come after the 4k release of TLJ cause that would kick ass

Please feel free to list sources for these claims.
