screams in the void

I think I see what some are saying here about the vhs hiding some deficiencies in the master , I said it before and I think it bears repeating that the type of display plays a big part too . VHS Faces set looks very vivid and crisp on a crt tv whereas it looks faded on a modern display .The gout looks grainy and faded to my eyes either way .The guy in this video is playing the faces tapes on a couple of crt tv’s on a high quality vcr and it looks pretty damn good to me …https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QZOUB4gZ0I Now , I know it is in fullscreen but the colors really pop and hi fi analog stereo sound trumps dgital in my book .by way of comparison , here is a sample of the 2006 Gout bonus disc…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYCK6-MCn5Q the colors are much more desaturated .Also , does the definitive collection laserdisc have the blue tie fighter lasers in the asteroid chase scene from Empire that the faces tape has ?

I gotta agree with Chainsawash …I think Attack Of The Clones is the worst title hands down , when I first heard it I thought it was a joke and could not be real , but it was . Invoked memories of bad B movies like attack of the killer tomatoes .Hey , there is an edit title Frink would have loved …Attack of the killler clone tomatoes ! lol . As for the Rise of Skywalker …meh. It could be worse . It makes you wonder what it means and provides a hook , but I think it should have been thought out more if only for the life the film will have after the theaters on whatever media people will re watch it on .And I have already started hearing the inevitable jokes about little blue pills making Skywalker rise …

^ Awesome ! these are the droids I’m looking for !

I loved Rinzler’s making of books …hope this one is just as good …gotta agree with the first commenter on this page , I loved the book and all the nods to the Daley Han Solo books in the film as well as Splinter Of The Minds eye and even the A.C. Crispin Solo trilogy…https://io9.gizmodo.com/a-look-inside-the-new-book-exploring-the-making-of-solo-1833757076

While I did enjoy the Last Jedi , Your attitude of respect makes me curious to want to see your edit . Well thought out and articulated post . Will be watching with great interest .

ok . I loved this scene in 3d Imax and was inspired to create a poster of the scene …https://www.deviantart.com/screamsinthevoid/art/Rey-Rocks-Redux-791868063

so , how are those goals pursued and what are their methods ?

yeah . wikipedia is a credible source…

the whole thing of using the term social justice warrior as a pejorative when talking about super heroes is just plain stupid …of course they are social justice warriors …that is the whole damn point of them !

debateable

the hearts of my enemies

L3 has the most peculiar dialogue , I don’t know where she learned to communicate …

gotta be this one for me …https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtjfWvWowgM

^ at least someone sees it , but really , come on now , you know Phantom Menace was a masterpiece and the very best film in the saga !

finally got around to seeing Infinity War …thought it was ok . Does anyone else think that the ground battle in Wakanda near the end ripped off the Gungan ground battle from The Phantom Menace a bit ?

^ That looks awesome ! Reminds me of some of the prequel concept paintings by Ryan Church and Claudia Gray is hands down one of the best writers in the new era of Star Wars fiction . I thought Bloodline and Lost Star’s were excellent !

^ not sure this is entirely true …how do you explain the blue tie fighter lasers during the asteroid chase in Empire on the faces vhs ? it is not on the gout . the colors overall look a lot more vivid to me on the 95 vhs in comparison to the gout and less grainy

never tell me the odds !

Proud of you I am , a powerful Jedi you are , hmmm , yes , powerful jedi !

They have a gone?

The out of context thread , this is not . Talk like Yoda thread , this is not . A thread for it there should be though . rectify that , someone should .

That was one of my favorite two issue arcs of the series ! Archie Goodwin also did a story where Imperial officers plot to assasinate Vader in the newspaper strip around the same time those issues were published .That attempt failed as well .

or Hux was just always an overly hateful whiny bitch whose bark was bigger than his bite from the very start and the intent was for the audience to feel a bit of catharsis watching him get his come uppance and be exposed for the punk he really is

Thus leaving only the very emo Kylo Ren as the face of evil, making the FO seem far less capable and threatening than ever before. That doesn’t seem like a smart move for setting up the final installment of the saga, although it does explain the very postive attitude of those aboard the Millenium Falcon. With the opposition only relying on superior numbers, led by an emotionally instable Supreme Leader, who Rey’s already beaten once, the good guys can’t lose.

I will just leave this here …http://colleenhenry.blogspot.com/2007/05/awesome-kevin-smith-comment-about-star.html

No problem. This guy did it first. 😃

Take a closer look … he tried SPINNING … and we all know: that is a good trick. 😉

actually , this guy did it first but it ended up as a deleted scene …https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLlWcMRjeJo it happened in the Novelization though and I think it was Hobby who was the pilot but I could be mistaken

is there really separation of church and state in America or is the church becoming the state ? like when you go to the trustee of your town for rental assistance and they refer you to a local ministry as your second step in the process . Ministry that is funded by tax dollars . And then you are not required , but strongly “encouraged” to pray . Sorry , my conception of God does not ask for the bowed knee or demand obedience . I don’t believe he/she/it is that insecure .I see the concept as one of unconditional love and enabling one to rise up and help themselves that they may do good in the world . I am grateful for the help , just not the feeling of being judged for it .
