^ Nice idea, that 😃

There are a few more Rogue One covers - dvd, bluray and some retro vhs - plus some art & posters etc, in here - http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Rogue-One-PosterPromos/id/50710

Stumbled upon a neat Rogue One retro CBS/Fox style cover earlier - not in the largest size - but not bad…

New meds are making me sick to my stomach. 😕

After relaying this complaint to my lady this evening, she just nodded and said “Hmm, yeah. I guess that’s why you’re supposed to take it at night.” 😕 I’m a dummy.

Brilliant that, mate 😃

You have both passed the test ZigZig & Frink 😉

Harmy has put up a video on youtube - just to remind everyone that Fan Edits must never be bought or sold.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrwKZHv4OS0

Personally, as a member here, I’d encourage everyone to watch it and upvote that video.

It may be worth buying a really cheap boxset from ebay, a market stall, charity shop or similar - just to get hold of a boxset to carefully take apart, see how it was put together, the measurements, the folds and tabs - just to practice with / on.
 

May be an idea to post a couple of pics of your boxset to see how you’re getting on? - and for others who’ve already completed theirs to give some pointers / advice etc
 

Good luck with it 😃

‘Trump retweets British far-right leader’s anti-Muslim videos’…

Even after all he has said and done. The US President supporting a fascist group, who had a member that assassinated one of my countries’ (UK) politicians is a new low. If Trump wants to support Nazis in his own country, that’s his right I suppose but don’t bring aid and comfort to enemies of my country please, if you still want to claim to be our ally.

Aye, Trump may well be a moron - though surprising that no-one is reigning him on his tweets (or activities in general) in at all.

WTF is he doing following - let alone endorsing - that particular group in the first place?

Well said Wazzles.

And with that, this thread is now locked.

‘Trump retweets British far-right leader’s anti-Muslim videos’…

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/nov/29/trump-account-retweets-anti-muslim-videos-of-british-far-right-leader

Diversity, tolerance, culture and understanding was in short supply back in the 80’s - and seems a few European countries didn’t like the word ‘ninja’ in kids tv programs, and also cut some content too.
 

Wiki has the reason for TMHT as this - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles#Teenage_Mutant_.22Hero.22_Turtles

(’…since local censorship policies deemed the word ninja to have excessively violent connotations for a children’s program…’)
 

So we had ‘Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles’ until 2003 (I never realised there was a difference or content was cut) - I imagine the reason why it wasn’t renamed back to ‘Ninja’ earlier was likely to do with costs etc.
 

Looking back, many kids were all out with friends or playing sport / music, getting into mischief etc - watching tv was for rainy days and kids who were being punished / ill / recovering from accidents etc (and computer gaming was for winter). I vividly remember the old girl bellowing out ‘be back for tea (dinner) and not before, and don’t be late either!’

Not at all like today’s youth.

The Last Jedi has received a 12A rating in the UK (and passed uncut) - http://www.bbfc.co.uk/releases/star-wars-last-jedi-2017

Guess there isn’t any head butting going on, which is where AOTC got into trouble. And I thought the ratings board here in the U.S. was weird. 😉

The BBFC can be a strange bunch at times 😃 Though they are concise, clear and helpful as to giving reasons why and how films could meet a certain certification - and explaining their decisions.

They’ll even reply to the public’s queries as to their decisions:-

http://www.theforce.net/latestnews/story/bbfc_defends_head_butt_removal_66745.asp
 

The BBFC were fairly consistent about it - a few other films ‘suffered’ the headbutt cut around that time in order to meet the PG rating; I think around that time there were a number of copycat incidents where kids in the UK were emulating film scenes and injuring themselves - so you can imagine the political and mob-media pressure.

Sadly there is no BBFC rating for bad Prequels 😉

Is this what you may be looking for mate?:-

^ It is by our very own ronwlim - a thread containing some of his great work can be found here:-

http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/ronwlims-custom-bluray-casesbox-set/id/47474

There is also this here, found on a google image search:-

a newspaper feel:-

and a colour version:-

‘Chapecoense plane crash: How the club is still defying the odds one year on’…

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42137506

Chapecoense will likely finish somewhere between 9th and 13th in the 20-team Brazil Serie A - with 1 league match remaining.

It’s a fantastic sporting achievement against the background of such loss and emotion - and will hopefully give some small solace or aid to the local community and those affected by the events of one year ago.

That is superb - there’s some pretty cool artwork & illustrations on there, as well as some rare pictures - well worth a look.

Good luck with your project 😃

Very cool - I like those quite a bit, nice one 😃

If you’d like to post the pics up on here then you can try the following…

Does anyone have this style A poster without Luke and Leía? I have searched to no avail.

That superb quality cover was done by coov. It may be worth sending him a PM to see if he has a copy of the poster art still?

I am going to see the film on Dec 14 and I am not really sure why.

TFA was basically Market Research: The Movie.

This is shaping up to be Market Research Episode II: Revenge of the Focus Group.

But there is still a recognizable kernel of Star Wars in there and I think that is what compels me to show up.

That’s pretty funny. I’m really dreading seeing the purple-haired girl and the fat asian hipster looking girl in The Last Jedi. Star Wars is about escapism. It should not be about reminding you about the types of clowns that walks around in everyday life.

Terms like ‘fat asian hipster’ aren’t acceptable on this site.

Nor is ‘…the types of clowns that walks around in everyday life’ in the context in which you used it.

Consider this a warning.

If you have any questions or problems with this feel free to PM me.

Let’s leave the subject of Jim Smith’s post there - and get back to discussing Episode VIII, thank you.

007 is here! and he is after the GoldenEye…

For me, the ot.com is a little like Bespin in the Empire Strikes Back, we’re a small outfit that goes under the nose of the Empire re the releases that feature on here - we need to keep it that way (though no deals 😉)…

On that note, it doesn’t help when, well meaning but misguided individuals, promote the fan projects on another SW site, where, the response to these efforts has always been at best, tepid and members of that site, even go as far as expressing their unhappiness about this work being carried out without consent from Lucasfilm/Disney.

I’ve promoted Harmy’s work on other (non-SW) sites and told people how to get it. I’ve gotten many thank yous. I’m not sure what you’re talking about, frankly.

I think Jay may have been referring to those SW sites that, in the main, don’t particularly like us (this site) - or the work that takes place here.

I enjoy a good side-discussion as much as the next man, though this - http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/The-Infamous-Stormtrooper-Aim-Explained-With-Science/id/12144/page/1 - or a similar thread, may be an idea to continue the ‘stormtrooper aiming’ conversation without hogging this cool artwork thread.

Besides, I want to see what the letter T will be us 😃
