Oh, I meant to ask: Will version 3.0 have shake applied to the full movie?

I joke, I joke.

If there's no shake in the original, where did the Puggo Grande's shake come from?

If it helps any Ginge, I was at the Senator screening too (well, technically there were two screenings - I was at the 2nd one), and I gotta say that Harmy's clip looks great. I hadn't spent enough time on here to know to look for a shake at that point, but I do remember the subtitles seeming almost 3D, floating in front of Greedo. I get the same effect from Harmy's latest, and I think it's the shake: The motion distinguishes them as being a separate object from the rest of the image.

That's fairly incredible. I'm very pleased.

How did you "import" the shake from Puggo Grande?

Note: That piece of equipment to the right of Luke & Leia is a really great looking prop.

What kind of Yoda is that?! Tiny-ears and just...wrong.

Yeah, Angel has shown a tendency to want to modernize the OT, whereas I'm more interested in the largely untackled task of 70s/80s-izing the PT. It is, I suppose, a legitimate perspective, but rarely do I enjoy his mockups. Sorry Angel.

Eh, there's not much to say, really. To the outside observer, black people weren't allowed to be clergy until the Church conveniently announced a message from God saying they could, after racism had become unpopular, much as there was a convenient prophecy regarding polygamy once the Supreme Court had definitively declared it illegal. To the outside observer, they weren't messages from God, they were the head Prophet recognizing social pressures and claiming to have received communication from the Lord. The the LDS-believer, it was all actual messages from God.

Your thoughts, as a believer, on the convenient timings?

What he's saying is that if you hear a recognizable theme from "Close Encounters" or "Jurassic Park" while watching a Star Wars film, you will probably be distracted by the recognition and out-of-placeness.

That's good to hear, I suppose. There's a stereotype of Mormons as rich or middle-class white people, which isn't super-surprising given the LDS's history with African-Americans (I assume you know what I mean?), so it's good to hear that's changed.

In all seriousness, I have never heard of a poor black Mormon. I'm definitely open to counterexamples.

Incidentally, that difference filter view is a pretty sweet logo

[Explaining Spock's odd behavior] Oh, him? He's harmless. Part of the free speech movement at Berkeley in the sixties. I think he did a little too much LDS. 

Oh, I got the reference, no worries there. I was referring to the "What does God need with a spaceship?" bit.

Isn't this project technically misnamed, as true crushed blacks are areas where there was once variation in color but are now all solid-black and thus irrecoverable?

Ah, yes, one of my favorite jokes in the film.  Spock really got into the '60s after all, and did a little too much LDS.

Star Trek V: Not Kolob, I assume?

You did catch the part where I mentioned I was six or seven years old at the time, right?

I did not! That changes everything. Never mind.

My mistake!

Vimeo doesn't allow for anything you didn't make yourself, though. Can you even do the private video thing?
