Your tombstone
Time
Actually I've visited a cemitery (same one) about 3 times my whole life, I've never been to a funeral, and I don't think I ever will, except for my own. I don't know what my reaction would be when losing a close, loved one, everyone who has died in my family was someone I never talked to. I suppose I've been kinda lucky so far.

My favorite one was one I've seen in one of my rare cemitery visits, a japanese man (judgin by his last name) who died in the late 50s, and we see there was supposed to be a picture of him on the tombstone, but it was missing. It was kinda sad, like, no one remembered him, or even bothered to put his pic back. In a way, his face was missing forever, and we'll never know who was that man...

Wow!

The space battle scene in The Phantom Edit really made Anakin more mature.

I just wish the picture and sound were better than a used VHS.


And they achieved it only with cuts, nothing added? Maybe they should hire the guys who did it to edit episode 3 too, if they can achieve such a thing with nothing but the original cut...

Disney Forbidding Distribution of Film That Criticizes Bush
Time
I like George Bush because he took it to the mother fuckers who nocked down the towers. He showed Americans aren't pussys (at least most of us) - You mean, the saudi arabians who did it? Nope he didn't do that.

I like how taxes are low for the working man. - You have got to be kidding... As far as I know, and I admit not knowing much about the taxes policy in america, he cutted the "rich people" taxes. Besides, how could you know? You don't pay taxes, you don't work, and you are not yet a man.

I support a constitutional amendment against Gay Marriage. Homosexuality is ruining our society. I for one don't want my children (when I have them) to grow up in a world where homosexuallity is considered normal. Gays in my opinion have a problem, a sickness, and should try to seek help for there problem rather then try to be considered normal. - Jesus fucking Christ, what is this, 1955? I can't belive you actually think like that, I just can't belive. Why don't you stripe a fucking suastica in your arm and go shooting gay people around? If one american child can say such a thing, then WW2 was in vain. Facism and nazism rule the young ones minds.

US troops abuse Iraqi prisoners
Time
But I make GWB words mine: I don't hate the american people, only its government. I think the american people is one of the most brilliant, inteligent, funny and warm-hearted people around, altough I still belive you guys could get a little bit more "loose" and not so "formal" and stuff. So sad I can't say the same about the people who rule you. too bad you can't have canadian politicians running the place.

The Brazil one happened in 1964, not in 1962, but it's absolutly correct, even though it's not very detailed, it was far, far worse than it says. People were tortured by CIA agents for posessing books with red covers. My mother had this friend back in college in the late 60s, she once badmouthed the dictatorship and america, she was never seen before (my mother refuses to talk about it, she told me that story only once). I had a teacher that was also in college during the late 60s, her teacher criticizing america's decision to run oiver the world by showing a "captain america" cartoon and talking about it... he was arrested at that same day, tortured and killed. It was forbidden for 3 or more people to walk together on the street. The media was censored, and those who refuse to cooperated were tortured, set away from the country or killed. College students and artists were those who suffered the most. And why?? Because the CIA had considered that Joao Goulart (our president in 1964) MIGHT had some communism connections, and COULD possibly lead the country into communism (an horribly absurd idea). So screw that third-world country, let's kill their growing economy, kill their people, torture everyone who even thinks about the word "democracy", instate insane military dictators, so we can all eat Big Macs later and live the american dream. So now you understand how we feel about Iraq...

Jesus tapdancing Christ. You know what Jimbo here needs? Let's get him out of his safety in his parents home, filled with microwave dinners, videogames, toys, cable TV (fox news?), heating system, 3 cars in garage, a gun under every pillow... and let's send him in a time machine to 1969's My Lai village, in Vietnan, dressed as a vietnamize kid. I'd love to hear him screaming when they shoot his parents in front of him, or when his flesh is being burned to the bones thanks to Napalm.

As far as I can remember, it takes 1000 years for the sarlaac to digest his "food". I do belive Fett has survived, it's just that it didn't matter in the movie, as Fett was not going to appear again.

Whyyyyyy?

And... now that I think about it... you guys were right... they underestimated the rebels so much... I mean, it wasn't that hard to blow up the Death Star a second time... Let me stop thinking about it, or else I'll start to hate ROTJ, and this CANNOT happen.

MORE CHANGES!!! (for the 2004 OT DVD release)
Time
GL didn't create much of the OT by himself. I remember reading that Vader's full body suit concept was created by one of his artists based on an early draft that had Vader space-walking to another ship. What he did was to create a rough plot line, assign roles and gather ideas, even the ANH screenplay wasn't written only by him. But he sure is one hell of a producer, probably one of the best around, and he sure knows how to make money from movies...
