So a site that has had a successful petition of get the OOT on dvd (garbage quality aside), pulled people together to make the best damn fan restorations anywhere and the best damn fanedits anywhere is “pathetic” because we didn’t like you posting porn pics?
ok then.You forgot this place also has the best damned off topic section of any forum on the net.
What John Landis’ story says to me is that George doesn’t mind the idea of the original versions being out there.
It’s not his money being spent anymore and that was pretty much the only reason we got the GOUT instead of an hd remaster like they did for the '04 set.
Now he has no reason to care.
I dunno… I think the reviews and praise for the original versions and the backlash against his SE’s could be pretty damaging to his hubris. He doesn’t seem to realize that HE gets the praise either way because HE MADE THE MOVIES. He’d just be mad because people prefer the original versions over his “new and improved” versions.
But I think he realizes that there’s not much he can do about that now, he knows the demand is there and he knows The Mouse will want to cash in on that demand.
At least I hope The Mose wants to cash in on that demand…
Just release Legacy!
Sounds good!
I hope you can get the wampa figured out. Seems annoying, but fixable.
I’m still as excited as ever for this project!
I inherently hate Haydenghost because Obi-Wan and Yoda, who were true Jedi when they lived and when they died, can only appear as they were when they died. But Anikin, who was a true POS when he lived and did one right thing before he died, comes back looking like he’s ready for his photo shoot for TeenBeat.
Also, if they can bring back Peter Cushing, they can bring back a ghostly Sebastian Shaw.
…get annoyed when users revert to childish behavior and mock people who like the Disney films. They are not policing people who disagree with them.
You mean like reverting to childish behaviour and mocking people for liking the prequels?
I would enjoy knowing why it’s okay for some people to be childish and mock people for their differing opinions, but not vice versa. I’d also like to know which lame justification I’ll get this time.
There are a lot of double standards here but I think the “you can’t disagree with me but I can disagree with you, and in turn mock you” may be the biggest one.
There’s not one sole perpetrator but the irony of arguments like these surely can’t be lost on everyone.Nobody here is going to PrequelTrilogy dot com to bash the PT. If you want a place to discuss your PT love, maybe OriginalTrilogy dot com isn’t the best place.
Keep in mind that the only uniting thread we all share here is a love of the Original Trilogy. Don’t expect people to share or respect your opinion of anything else, but you are free to have whatever opinions your have on any subject. And everybody is free to state their disagreement and engage in debate.Sorry Ray but this a very poor argument. If you follow your argument, the same could be said for TFA lovers: “If they want a place to discuss their TFA love, maybe OriginalTrilogy dot com isn’t the best place”.
There should not be double standards when it comes to PT lovers and TFA lovers.
I actually have to agree with impscum here. The argument that you shouldn’t express your PT love here because of the website tile is pretty weak.
That’s not what I said at all.
I’m just saying you shouldn’t except everybody on OriginalTrilogy dot com to agree with anything other than love of the OT. All aspects of Star Wars are discussed here, and that’s great. But if most people you’re talking to hate the PT, you shouldn’t be surprised when they say so.
NOTHING about any announcement being one of the “surprises”.
If they announced the surprise announcement, it wouldn’t be a surprise! 😉 😛

I could get behind this as well. But there seem to be more TFA fans than not around here, so that’s how it goes. It would be the same if the PT ratio was flipped.
My point about OT love being the only thing to count on here stands.
I like Electronic, but my enjoyment is always subdued by thinking “Johnny left the Smiths for this?”
(Ok, so Johnny didn’t leave the almighty Smiths to join Electronic, but it was the next musical thing he did.)
dated
Worst word you can use to describe about just about anything artistic. The time in which something was made and the fact that the times are reflected in the thing being created is in no way a bad thing.

Hairspray (1988)
Been a few years since I last watched this and I’m very much looking forward to it.
I love John Waters.
Great work Liam! I dig the style.
Just found this. Dunno if it’s been posted before, but it’s new to me.

ok then.
Spock mode. Pull all the way left. Kirk’s doin’ his Jerry Lewis impression. Spock likes.
“OI LAADY!”
I don’t understand why anybody would come here to complain about a movie that is over a year old now. It’s just a movie.
You mean like complaining about a movie that is almost 20 years old?
I don’t think time is really an issue for Star Wars fans wanting to complain about something.
I don’t go to places where PT fans meet to complain about how awful I feel the movies they love are. If it comes up in conversation, I’ll express my feelings. But I don’t go out of my way to constantly tell people I don’t like what they love.
I rarely go into this thread, but anytime I do, it’s the same conversation between the same people. What’s the point?
I’m gonna go with “wait for the inevitable superior double-dip.”
That was gonna be my response too, but I’m pretty eager to get to editing on this one. It’ll be the first fanedit I put online. And while I’d love some deleted material to go through and possibly add, my edit will be fairly simple. Just removing and switching around a few things.
I’m gonna go with the cheapest Blu-ray option.
This makes me happy
I don’t understand why anybody would come here to complain about a movie that is over a year old now. It’s just a movie.
I didn’t care for it, but it didn’t wound me. I was disappointed, but so what? It didn’t erase movies I like so that it can exist. It doesn’t force it’s way onto my tv screen. In fact, TFA has stayed out of my way since I left the theater, but it’s there if I ever want it. Good boy!
^ The split pics in the background there are funny! (cool tshirt too)
I love all of these profile pics! Except the ewok… I gotta say I think that one is actually awful.
^ Ha! I was just about to do this exact thing!
Crisp and clean. No caffeine!
It was schlocky and it was fantastic.
I’m dragging this conversation from Off-Topic to here…
[ray_afraid said:]
I disagree that there needs to be a scene with Lando and Han reconciling. Lando did the right thing and Han knows it. I would like a scene where that conversation happens.
I never said there needs to be a certain way it needs to happen, all I said is Lando’s betrayal is unaddressed. I’d be fine with either of the things you suggested, but as is it just seems to be forgotten as if it didn’t even happen, which is weird. There’s simply nothing in the movie that gives us anything other than “How are you, old chum, tra la la!” when the dynamic between the two could have been much more interesting.
Agreed.

The only point I disagree with is when you said Luke seeing good in Vader is naive. He surely should have felt something in Vader when he was offered a place at his side. I wish Luke could have said something like “Bringing our father back won’t undo all the things he’s done but it’s a start” or something stating the realistic nature of redeeming the right hand of The Devil.
Handman said:
I just think it was done in a very black and white way, when it could have been much more complicated. Vader’s eventual turn is great, one of my favorite moments in the trilogy, but Luke just believing there’s good in him without really giving any reason (his reaction at the end of ESB didn’t really convince me he felt anything for being offered a place at his side, and that specific point isn’t really addressed in ROTJ), and just the phrase, “The good side!” rubs me the wrong way. It’s not something I felt would have been uttered in the previous films. Luke’s conversation with Ben could have really set up Luke’s motivations, but it’s also a missed opportunity.
Agreed again.
I took it to the SW Discussion thread.
JEDIT: And so did Handman. 😉
You could say that after every post in every thread of every forum.
