River ,'Ariel'
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
The only good thing I can think of to say about the Star Wars re-work is that Chewie Finally Gets a Damn Medal.
Otherwise, I'm boggled as to why Lucas thought it made more sense to make two new movies that don't match the canon of the existing movies and then redact the existing movies even though the entire population of the world has already seen them at least once, than to make the two new movies fit the story as already told.
It's like he works at my office or something.
I saw the more Bettany based ad for Wimbledon and it was a thing of beauty and makes me want to see the movie even more.
Could this be cooler? I don't think so.
Seriously! That's the best thing EVER!
Plus, I love the name of one of the groups claiming responsibility for the catacomb cinema: the Perforating Mexicans.
That is SO COOL. I wanna go there.
Thanks! Actually, they're digitally adding me into the Ewok chorus.
Does that mean the ewok song is being returned to the end? I hope so!!
The jub-jub song?
The song that was replaced by the vangelis-like music at the end of the Empire Strikes Back. The Ewoks were kind of lame, but that song was their finest moment.
Really? I never saw the re-releases. No jub-jub? No DIGITAL jub-jub?
Actually, I've seen the edit of the soon-to-be released DVD ending of Jedi. Yes, they've digitally placed Hayden Christensen in the Jedi lineup at the end. No even now, the jub-jub song is not there, the ewok sing a totally different song, with no jub-jub.
One of the "subtle details" they changed, at least in Jedi? Dying Anakin's bushy eyebrows have been digitally removed.
No, I'm not kidding.
