Well that’s true, but in this case I think it would fall under misinterpretation by the reader rather than accidentally racist. The main reason it needed to be deleted by a mod was because it was a picture of sexually active cats. No one wants to see that.

The text in the post was very clear - though it was not what Duracell was meant to actually post (confirmed in his latter post for clarity).

The picture of two cats at it is somewhat incidental and secondary to the text - though I agree in that no-one needs to see that.

Hence the deletion of the picture and editing of the text in his mis-post.

How much longer until the next versions of the Despecialized Trilogy are finished?

I believe this is the most recent post from Harmy on the matter - http://originaltrilogy.com/post/id/1098196

The man has obviously been busy, he may wish to have a break, do others things, or get straight back into it.

Whatever he does choose to do - those ‘next versions’ will likely take some time.

Try and stay patient Editroid - we already have some superb versions of DeSpecialised, 2 AdyWan Edits & ROTJ being worked on, a whole host of Star Wars fan edits - including those for the new films. As well as a few more Star Wars films (& books and games etc) coming out soon too.

With the foot in mouth bug that’s been going around here lately, you could have gotten a temp ban.

Really, without a warning? It’s Duracell, he was obviously just being weird, not racist.

Unfortunately, the original post came across as just that (racist) - though thankfully was just a misunderstanding/mis-post as confirmed from Duracell’s later explanation.

As a general request to everyone - please be careful when posting - and read through how it may appear to other posters when they read it - before hitting that ‘Submit your reply’ button.

Thank you.

Very cool - and top choice of artwork for them as well 😃

If I were to be hyper-criticial I think the ‘Despecialised Edtion’ text is a little too much to the right in not lining up with the white text box on the Empire Strikes Back poster - but that’s the likely just the OCD in me 😉
 

Sweet work - you should think about posting them in one of the Harmy Despecialised Edition threads in the ‘Star Wars Preservations and Other Fan Projects’ section to give them a little more exposure.

What about when referring to Trump or the nut in N. Korea?

I’d go with following the rules and guidelines of the site and any that the OP has specified for the thread.

You just confirmed that they’re members here!

I thought everyone knew!

It’d likely be also helpful to put it into context why such a descriptive word is being used too (though, granted, at times this can be obvious with the likes of the two individuals mentioned above - and a few other politicians around the world as well).

I understood when the other mod already told me, thanks.

I hadn’t seen that - doh!

Though think of it as a general request/reminder to the others on here 😉

Good folk - please lay off using words like ‘dick’ when criticising or critiquing fellow members.

Stating that they you may not have got on, or they pissed you off is somewhat ok - but leave the other insults off the site please - thank you.

So does anyone know how to post pics side by side?

I don’t think there is currently a code for posting 2 picture side by side on here (though happy to be proved wrong - and like Wook says - if there is one out there please link to it 😃)

You may find it easier to use a program like MS Paint to create a new image - then post the 2 images you wish to use and place them side-by-side and then save that image. You can then upload that newly created image to a photo sharing site (imgur for example - quick, free and easy to use etc) - and then link to it on here.
 

Alternatively feel free to PM me the 2 images and I’ll knock up a side-by-side image for you.

True…but in this case, is the spelling variant actually used in the movie title?

I completely forgot about this…

Still loving STD 😆

Which do you think is better though mate, STD or STI?

Yes, Deckard being a human is thematically important. But so is raising the question of whether he might be a replicant.

Also, is there not a dedicated Blade Runner thread?

There have been a few Blade Runner threads on here over the years - this is one of most recent/relevant threads from the ‘Off Topic’ section:-

Can we not use this thread to bitch about the new movies, please?

Spot on doubleofive.
 

Let’s stay on topic of the thread title and first post.

Nice one and thank you 😃

'Interesting idea. I’m a proponent of incorporating Dooku into TPM as well. I’m no editor, but it seems to me the simplest way to do so (not to mention the way that would least contradict existing canon) would be to add a brief scene of him watching Qui-Gon’s funeral. You could either edit the back of his head into the foreground of an exterior shot of the temple, to have him back on Naboo but keeping his distance from the Jedi, or the AOTC footage (including one of the deleted scenes) of him sitting at the conference table could be repurposed into him watching a hologram of the funeral.

Throw in a line or two spiced together from Dooku and Saruman dialogue – vaguely talking about going to war, “the Republic cannot be fixed,” or something to that effect – and the result could be really cool.’

Thanks for posting that - a quality watch and re-assuring to see how they have both approached this new film.

Looking forward to seeing more about it - and eventually the film itself 😃

Nice one - a BD-25 just in time for this weekend to watch with a few visiting mates.

There are a few rare (and claimed ‘never seen before’) pictures of Carrie Fisher from behind the scenes of Empire Strikes Back here (and a few items for sale at an upcoming auction):-

http://www.thegeektwins.com/2017/10/11-wonderful-things-from-carrie-fisher.html

From the I haven’t watched Empire in 20 years file; I don’t even remember Treat Williams being in the movie. Some nice pictures of Carrie for sure. It’s always nice to be reminded of how beautiful she was. It will be strange watching her last film two months from now.

I think there’ll likely be a fair few of us with ‘some dust or something in my eye’ when we see her in that film.

Anybody stop to think what this society would look like if we banned all the characters who have nasty contempt for those citizens who support the Second Amendment in letter and Spirit?

If those nasty creeps had to live in a world where the values of the US and it’s Constitution were completely destroyed, after 5 minutes they’d be screaming and begging to go back to the world of those evil conservatives who deserve to SUFFER and DDDIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!

You can explain your thoughts a lot better - and with more clarity - than you are currently doing.
 

Stop the trolling and inflammatory nature, generalisations and stereotypes in your posts.

This is your last warning.

It may be an idea to let members on here know that they’ll have to ask permission (or sign in) to be able to access your list of fan edit ideas in the first post.

It’d also be cool if you list an overview of the Fan Edits ideas you have in there too.

Play nice, please lads.
