mimartin Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 @ mim: We're not mindless fanboys who kiss GL's ass saying everything he does is perfect You can do that if you want though, none of us will stop you. Yeah, I'm a mindless fanboy, but that only applies to BioWare. I just tend to ignore stuff I don't like, ie Force Unleashed. Isn't worth my time to whine and moan about insignificant nonsense, but to each his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 That's why this place exists... just as long as the whining is about Star Wars or vidya instead of unimportant things like politics, its all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC-2067 "Evo" Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I'm 15, and when I was little, we had the original VHSseses. The new Jabba's palace songs were good, but the animation just didn't fit. The only things that I liked that they changed are Ian McDiarmid in ESB, the song at the Ewok party, and Hayden Christiansen. Just about everything else made me gag. EDIT: Oh, yes. And Tamuera Morrison as Boba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Avlectus Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Hated the new music number at Jabba's Palace; I'm embarrassed to even watch it. I mean, the music isn't really at fault, it's just that f****** cartoon character's solo at the end. Hell, compared to this guy I got nothing against Jar-Jar. lolplagarism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I've seen hotlink denial notices that looked, um, far worse than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Avlectus Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 So have I, this one is actually funny compared to most out there. The other ones I have seen are either boring or something like "don't steal images f-tard" or "u just got pwnd for using images without permission mf'ing noob".

Alexrd Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 The Best on Blu-ray: Restoring the Star Wars Saga for the HD Generation This is looking great. And I was very pessimistic about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 ^It's a great, and interesting read. It also great that they're showing some examples - and I'd never even noticed some of the defects mentioned in the article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynk Former Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 If true... (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.) But I'm sure like most everything else on the interwebz, we're all being trolled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexrd Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I don't mind the new Ben' scream, nor the new Ewoks' eyes, Han unfrozen effect, or the new shot of Jabba's Palace gate. What I do mind is that awful 'no noo' from Vader, and the unfixed lightsabers. Why did they ignored that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astor Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I don't know, if these are actual scenes, and not just someone trying to cause a stir, Vader's noooo! bothers me far less than I thought it would when I read about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthParametric Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Lol the Obi-Wan thing is rape of a classic, pure and simple, but god damn if I don't piss myself laughing every time I hear it. I think I'll make it my new ringtone. Who would have thought Lucas was a comedy genius? Although I guess there was Howard the Duck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexrd Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Lol the Obi-Wan thing is rape of a classic, pure and simple, Well, these are the special editions, and this scream looks way more human than the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 But I'm sure like most everything else on the interwebz, we're all being trolled. Yeah, that's very likely the case, especially when one considers the uploader's comment: NOTE: The video is not from the blu-ray, I just synced up the leaked audio clip with existing video. But, never fear. I have no doubt that George and his flunkies will provide us with more unnecessary stupidity and the controversy that it will generate. Count on it.

adamqd Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 and the unfixed lightsabers. Why did they ignored that? "cough" Edit: also the vader "NO" and Obi Wan "YO" are fake, £50 on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astor Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Jeez some of you guys are dramatic... Indeed. The enjoyment that Star Wars has given me over the years far outweigh any annoyance, anger or rage that I could ever feel about these supposed changes.

Lynk Former Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Jeez some of you guys are dramatic... If they included the original theatrical versions of both the OT and PT with the full 6 movie Blu-ray set then I wouldn't have a problem with them changing anything and everything they want. Hell, if they want they can have Darth Vader riding a unicorn during his fight with Luke in Cloud City. The problem I have with these changes is the fact that it's essentially a revisionists history. It's like when the US single-handedly won both world wars and every other country did NOTHING. Of course thanks to the Internet we won't ever truly lose the original theatrical versions of these movies... but in the mind of the mainstream it'll be a forgotten memory.

TKA-001 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I'd like to know how many people here would actually buy this set if it was exactly the way and version they want it. Like, how many actually own a Blue-ray player, and whatnot. Also, what the hell's with the backdraft on Obi-Wan's crazy old-guy scream? It's arguably the best-done and most warranted change since the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Oh, frak. It's true. All of it's freaking true. It's like he's deliberately stirring up controversy to sell more Blu-Rays. Oh, well. It's not like Lucasfilm was getting another dime of my money, anyway. Troll on, George. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
