He knows he has borderline religious fans, he knows people are already pissed about getting Hayden Christensen as vader after death in Return of the Jedi and a lot of other stuff, so I really have to wonder if he is just doing it for the cash. I so want to belive he actually wants to improve his work, but it's getting harder and harder to the point where I am concidering that he is just sitting at home and thinking up subtle ways to piss of more fans.

This is like if at the end of Shawshank Redemtion a prison guard was standing outside the prison and shot Andy as he tried to escape on a new blu-ray version.

So what if some guy hate his fans?
Maybe he just want to live a normal day life w/o being disturb?
Have you guys ever thought of that?
If he wants to be left alone to live his life with the shitload of cash he's made then why does he insist on shitting all over his previous work? Why can't he just let it be and stop pissing people off if he doesn't want to get disturbed?

Because he is an asshole?
If that was his intentions to do that. Then let him be. Its just StarWars lol

Hopefully, that wasn't true.



I actually just watched star wars for the first this week. Some puppets looked goofy, but I didn't mind. And the yoda puppet was fucking awesome. I think it will look weird when everything else looks out of date to have amazing CGI.

Well done puppets are better than CGI. Good thing i have them all on VHS :D

And yea, it must look wierd to have yoda be done with CGI but everything else to still be super dated.

I disagree with that, there's a lot more you can do with CGI than with a puppet.

As for the dated thing, I don't understand your point on that. The CGI is supposed to make him look believable.

I think he does that voice on purpose, because in the episode 2 review on his site he suddenly starts talking normal for a few sentences, then seems to remember right away and go back to the "funny" droll voice.

The first starwars films were not great in story telling either.
The characters were very simple and stiff. You only got to know the main characters a bit after 3 full films.

You dont even know who leads the rebellion, you know nothing about the imperator he is just the evil guy. Starwars was about the special effects and adventure all along not about the stroy telling.
What really hurts is this children crap they put in. I want to see dirt blood and rape in war and action movies and not these steril shit. I want to see strugle and not this bullshit.
This vader buring scene should be all over every battle scene and should be nothing special.

The childish approach is lame and the story telling is lame.

They should have set it darker more realistically with more storytelling and not this shit, episode 1 was an enormerous failure.



And shakespeare was just an illiterate imbecile who made up his own words....

The changes to Star Wars made since the originals make me sick.

The end of ROTJ being the biggest. Putting an evil looking young Anakin in place of that kind smiling old man? Some gungan shouting "WEESA FREE" at the end sequence?

Absolute rubbish.

Anyone give some background on this?

Whats the big deal?!


...

OK, I'll explain, I don't have the time to sift through all these pages in case someone beat me to it.

Have you ever seen a movie where there's a silent scream? All you see is the actor's anguished face, the harrowing background music...and other than that, there's no sound at all.

The effect on the viewer is incredible and delivers an enormous emotional punch, where hearing the actual scream itself, could never do. If done correctly, it's amazing. But it's been done so many times over the years, and in many horrible movies too. But anyways...

In the original, Darth Vader wordlessly picks up the Emperor, and tosses him down the shaft. I'm a little disappointed that I actually have to EXPLAIN to you, what thousands of people "get" about the significance of the silent actions, and somehow it's completely lost on you.

It is completely unnecessary and also entirely changes the scene. It's the little things that kill you.

In all honesty I'm not sure why it matters that much - the official version of the OT has been garbage for years now, further changes won't impact this.

I hate reviving this topic, but I just finished watching Epsiodes 1, 2 and 3. I thought they were decent back then and now I've watched them for a second time.

The above spoilered image is pretty much everything I thought of and finally made me stop at this point in the movie. If you haven't seen the first episodes, don't. They're absolutely horrendous from the terrible acting, to the horrid scriptwriting to the need to fit every single big-name in the movie who don't entirely fit the role (I am hugely in love with Natalie Portman, especially in this movie).

There's a movie recently out about George Lucas:


I simply adored this documentary, but don't go in thinking you're going to learn something immense or life-changing.
