Doesn’t matter if anyone on the set knew about it. All they saw was David Prowse kneeling and staring at nothing.

Really? Source?

They actually released them on DVD. They were poor quality transfers from the laserdisc version, but it’s out there. It’s a bit expensive now, I think. You can only get them used.

Probably not in the cards, as it would be a licensing nightmare to figure out how to do it... Disney doesn’t own the distribution rights to the previous films, won’t have the option of buying any of them till 2020, and word is that Fox will likely hold Ep 4 forever.

You know what change they should have made? They should have given Chewie AN EFFING MEDAL!!!

Actually, they’re monkey eyes.

I haven’t seen it. Where can I find it?

That’s why ad blockers are so popular these days.

Um, the planet isn’t a computer...

You know what I would like to see? A Special Edition, Lite. Take out all the crap that doesn’t work- the new Sarlaac, Greedo shooting, “NOOOOO!”, Jedi Rocks, etc, and keep all the stuff that works- the cleaned up effects, the wampa scene, etc. You could fix all the stuff that almost worked, but they just didn’t quite…

I remember reading somewhere a long time ago that posited the idea that Palpatine’s disfigured face in Jedi was the result of years of exposure to the Dark Side- the evil of the Dark Side had twisted him physically. I always liked that idea.

The celebratory scenes at the end of Jedi didn’t make sense. The Emperor’s been dead for, what, 15 minutes, and suddenly the capitol of the Empire falls? Word has spread that fast? The Imperial Moffs and governors lost control that quickly? The Imperial garrisons were overrun that fast? All this while the Rebels were…

Gotta disagree on this one. There are two problems with this. First, you can see way too much of the Emperor. He’s not shrouded in mystery like he was originally. Lucas made this change with the idea that we had already seen this dude before. He forgot that we hadn’t seen him up to this point and it ruins some of the…

Yes, yes it is.

Big deal. Humans have been doing that since at least 1995.

Crappy third-in-a-trilogy superhero movies that generally suck because they try to throw way too much into them.
