1. Oh god I don't really want to get involved in this, do I?

2. He just told Congress not to extend the Bush tax cuts.

Yeah, I'm going to have to look into fan-fixed versions of the LOTREE Blu... sigh.

Actually, does anyone know of comparisons between the EE Blus and the EE DVDs?

Also this is wildly off topic, isnt it....

Bluegrass is the only genre of music I listen to that doesn't suck in these modern times of ours.

That's because it hasn't sold out.

Oh, but you're so wrong. Bluegrass is the sold-out version of Old Time: http://bluegrasswest.com/wordpress/?p=56

As the title says, at some point in those films there was something in it that you liked.

You do know what happens when you ASSuME things, don't you?

This is why I always presume.

If they're just production blueprints, won't they simply show the one section that was built and then reused at different angles? Weren't we debating the implied room, rather than the actual set?

Or was even that up for debate?

Maybe you can make them more ominous somehow?

I actually think the Benny Hill music starts too soon. That music is traditionally used for zany run-around situations, but you've got it playing during the slow droid-unfold sequence. I think it would work better if you let the droid-unfold be super-ominous, then played Benny Hill starting when they come through The Shield.

Discuss? Already have! http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/No-but-seriously-What-we-like-about-the-Prequels/topic/11950/

Good point! Sorry about that!

And Frink, that hasn't happened to me in a long time. Good job.

You want the thread where S_Matt called us all idiots and left the forum.

Jerkwads, Frink. It was jerkwads.

As for the ESB-preference... I dunno. I think the Asteroid Belt sequence is fantastic, though I acknowledge that a lot of that is John Williams.

For Narnia!

Close the blastdoors! Close the blastdoors!

Wait this sort of feels like a diversiiiii...

Nah, I'd rather hear everyone's opinions?

Well on my new system 1 channel mono comes out just the center speaker

This is unfortunate

just like it is supposed to

Not necessarily. But obviously, given that this is the case, it makes 100% sense for you not like the mono-mix.

Also, you may want to use periods sometimes. I am really not sure what some of that post meant.

I see your point none but if we start demanding the "original" version of the end credits, while the other one was also made in 77 and is pretty much the same and definitely doesn't effectively change the film in any way, we would be totally playing into the cards of those who claim we are lunatics.

I actually believe that if there were two different versions during the original theatrical run, the most true original is the one that was most widely seen.

I agree with both points wholeheartedly. It's a thing to note, but not care about in terms of that hypothetical future release.

To be fair, I'm not sure there's ever been a community so focused on the differences as to bother with the credits. Not that the credits aren't a part of the film, but they are the part people find the least interesting/important. So I'm not surprised no one's documented this before...

but I'm glad it's happened.

I see that Tolkien and Lucas could shake hands, altering their earlier works to account for inconsistencies with their newer works. Sneaky little hobbitses!!!

This is actually really common practice in the world of books.

Well. Never....mind.

You just keep saying things that I've only ever seen on reddit.com, and it confuses the heck out of me.

Never mind....

TV's Frink said:

tl;dr either way.

;-)

True.

I have long assumed you're a redditor.

Just so you know, Danny, the accepted practice is to switch in and out of quotes

Something someone said

My response.

I never knew Bossk had avid fans!

Try to think about how Vader would have to be holding his sabre for the 2004 version to make sense.

Can someone explain the glow thing? Is it just the missing sabre blade?

Oh, just black shoes. TOMS, if that matters, but they're just black.

As for accuracy, see http://www.rarebricks.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/lego-jango-fett.jpg for a reference. Both sides of the torso taper the whole way.

Those are pretty great, although I do think the minifig torso is a little more tapered than you're showing it to be.

Also, if you can do one of me... I look like my picture? Light-brown/tan pants, red shirt with the coca-cola logo in Arabic, perhaps?

It's just not sexy enough.

What would I have done to Jedi?

 

Nothing.

 

It is fine as is.

Agreed. This thread is unworthy of OOT fans.

Indeed!

I find it hypocritical that fans here curse Lucas for changing the OT,yet have no problems with introducing hypothetical changes of their own!

A lot of people here aren't so much upset with the changes existing as they are with the changes being the only version available.
