Quoted for truth. I don't think any members of a board devoted to a 20+ year old anime have much business pointing out how we're too mature for something else.

Thats because they're just dirty apologists who work for Lucas' PR department and are only on the "high" they get after seeing the movie.

He's some Jedi from the Dark Horse comics. I don't know his name, but he has some sort of white tattoo/marking across the bridge of his nose and across his cheeks.

Maybe I'm just cynical, but that article does nothing to change my mind. It just seems to be saying "Oh, it won't be as bad as you think. Just wait and see." In the end it won't matter either way, because any Looney Toons we get today are but a pale imitation of the originals. Without the talents of Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Mel Blanc & co. you're never going to replicate those classics.

Man, you kids today... You just have no clue what the world was like before you graced it with your presence, do you? Seriously...maybe next you can comment on some old silent B&W movie you saw on late night PBS, and marvel that people "actually watched it." Or perhaps you can test drive a car thats more than 25 years old, and report on how disappointing its 3-speed manual tranny was. Or you could pick on 8-tracks, AM radio, carbureted engines, and betamax. You're free to share your opinions here, but you're going to have to realize that you have zero perspective on how the tech we have today came to be. Saying that you take things for granted is putting it lightly.

The soundtrack isn't out in stores yet, but it is out there. If you get my meaning. I think Cmdr. Grant was referring to the theatrical trailer, which was made up of ESB music. That music in the Celebration III footage isn't on the ROTS soundtrack. That doesn't mean that its not in the movie, but to be honest I'm not even sure if its John Williams. I'd go look for more info on the SW boards, but those places scare me.

I think most SW/ST types can accept the "no sound in space" concept. If anything, sound would have been added to attract a more mainstream audience. The types whose knowledge of film is solely derived from whatever crap they picked up in the $5.99 bin at Best Buy. The types who actually get excited to see Will Smith mugging for the camera in a "coming soon" trailer. The type who, sadly, make up the majority of the movie going public. But as Gaijin pointed out, the sound seems to have been done solely for the trailer so it's a moot point.

I liked The Dark Half, but otherwise yeah he's been pretty much semi-retired.

I'm not a fan of AICN, but they have two supposed reviews up, HERE and HERE. Make of them what you will. I'm only half way through the first one and I'm getting sick of the ?formatting?bugs?with?question marks? all over.

I'm in the same boat as you. My Falcon is ooooold and beat up. Thankfully those kits are all being reissued this summer, so I'll have to pick one up. At the same time, I should invest in a set of resin sidewalls, landing gear pods and the cockpit tunnel.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Outrider have some sort of polished/chrome finish to it? That's not to say that you can't weather a natural metal finish, but it's still not the same as the nice weather beaten and faded appearance we're accustomed to with most OT vehicles.

Whoa whoa whoa...a 1/72 OUtrider kit? Who makes that? And that 1/18 Tactical Armor was freakin' expensive, IIRC. Wasn't it somewhere near the $200 mark?

If there's anybody who's gay in the SW universe, aside from C3P0, its those darn Sith. Think about it: There's only two (lifepartners), a "master" and an "apprentice." They're always looking to "recruit" new members (classic Conservative anti-gay propaganda) and they are trying to take over the galaxy (or make themselves "accepted" in mainstream culture). And with that post, I officially declare that we've run out of things to talk about.

Ach!!! Zombies!! Edit: Site is down. It was probably just a joke anyway.

I'm shocked that nobody is talking about the Pendragon Pictures version of WOTW. Could it be that the trailers showed just how awful this movie will be? It barely qualifies as a direct to video movie. Besides, for all the venom that the Spielberg/Cruise version seems to get in some geek circles (Cruise I can understand, but Spielberg?! ) it actually seems to be fairly true to the original story, outside of the 21st century update.

AgentONE already has a PS3 and an XBOX 360, but he never plays with them because he's too busy with his PS4 and XBOX 720.

I'm curious if you could expand on this. Its "lame" because there's no surprises? Did you really expect some sort of "I am your father" type revelation to crop up in Ep III, much less one that would go unnoticed in the following three films? And there's suddenly not enough nods towards ANH? Lets see.. Luke goes to the Lars' Leia goes to the Organas Vader is all...Vaderized Tarkin gets introduced, however briefly Obi Wan goes into hiding on Tatooine Death Star construction starts Chewbacca! Republic becomes Empire Droids go to Capt. Antilles oh, and the whole "disappearing Jedi" thing gets explained. So tell us, what else exactly would you have suggested they add to "nod" to ANH? Perhaps an Imperial Officer could chide one of his troopers "Now TK421, don't let me catch you leaving your post." A young Han Solo could heft a blaster for the first time, and comment how much more reliable it is compared to "hokey religions and ancient weapons." A young Dr. Evezan could comment that he has the death sentance in a mere "Five systems" A young Admiral-to-be Motti could remark how the Death Star will someday "Be the ultimate power in the universe."

Ah, well I suppose that only leave ships, cars and figures. Of the three I'd say that a figure model would be the most fun for a "vacation" from your regular field. Is there any garage kits that would interest you? All I can come up with right now are the many many big-breasted Anime girls.

Ugh....without doorknob, thanks. But seriously, do you ever build armor or afv's? I find its sometimes a nice change of pace, especially comapred to trying to achieve a flawless finish on something like a model car. Tanks you can simply paint olive drab (or whatever) and slather on all kinds of mud n gunk.

Make a diorama of AgentONE sitting upon the throne that he won with his own hand, his crown sitting upon his troubled brow.

The 7 minute video was shown at Celebration III. Its just lousy camcorder footage, complete with lots of heads in the way. I got my copy from a yousendit link on MF.com. They are probably still uploading it to new links. I'd check there first.

That boy is our only hope...

It seems that the entire internet has slammed the View Askew forum, and they've now changed it so that it can only be read by registered members.

But he cut Tom Bombadil from the movie because he hates me personally. And for that he can never be forgiven!! Edited to add something in BOLD FONT!!

That's just it. Most of the people who put down Glocks don't own one.
