a teaser poster now appearing in some theatres…

I don’t want to toot my own horn, but I feel like these should be included:
Absolutely mate - my apologies for missing them out.

Our likely best hope of a professionally done and released restoration for a 4K theatrical version of the Original Trilogy probably lies here - with poita’s superb The Original Trilogy restored from 35mm prints ongoing project.
The 4KXX Original Trilogy project by the good people at thestarwarstrilogy.com are also well worth reading up on and following…
Some info & help for TN1’s 4K77, 4K80, and 4K83 projects of the Original Trilogy…
TheStarWarsTrilogy.com - and invite codes to it (read the actual thread before posting!)
A quick online search of ‘how to post pictures on originaltrilogy.com’ should do the trick mate 😃

You may also wish to check to see if there is already a meme thread…
No please or thank you?
No memes posted by yourself?
No other info at all except ‘show some memes’?
You can do better than this, I think…
Speaking of which, well, almost…
if you’re in the UK (and maybe abroad - it could be well worth a try too?) - the Big Sleeve edition of Rogue One on blu ray is available again - though this time it is available online too:-
https://www.tesco.com/direct/rogue-one/411-7216.prd?skuId=411-7216&source=others - £25 each, free delivery or pick up in the UK.
^ 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 😉

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’…
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?:-

‘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 😃
