May the fourth be with you. I posted this quite late so that those people 16 hours or so behind me in California get it as they wake up. Regards Tim Brimelow > May the fourth be with you. > > I posted this quite late so that those people 16 hours or so behind me in > California get it as they wake up. Whatever happened to the plan of four groups of three films to make twelve films in all ? There was an interview with the man in a very old Playboy and that was his plan. Richard.  SignatureTwo updates tools for 3D Studio Max <http://www.kdbanglia.com/maxtools.html> >that was his plan. He appears to have problems tearing himself away from Eps 4-6. Latest I heard is that he plans to re-release them in 3D next. It's funny - I've heard him in interviews, saying that he's glad he's financially independent now, so he can do the small, niche films he's always wanted to do, without fear of interference from studios. And yet, every time we turn around, he's spending more time re-working 4-6. What's next - Smell-o-vision? I REALLY wish he would just Let Them Be. >>that was his plan. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > yet, every time we turn around, he's spending more time re-working 4-6. > What's next - Smell-o-vision? Now that'll be a great idea for a studio logo. Staring at the rear end of a an old nag, cue sound effect of a horse whinney, arse open and plop! One big steaming pile. > I REALLY wish he would just Let Them Be. It'll turn into the Monty Python 'Mr. Neutron' sketch but where the Star Wars characters have great backing music as they walk to work, do the shopping, mow the lawn and just live ordinary lives.

If what the horse shat out had a sign pop out of it that said "Script for Ep.III", it would be fitting. "Hold me, Anakin - hold me like you did by the lake on Naboo" indeed. *huurrghhh!!* > >One big steaming pile. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > "Hold me, Anakin - hold me like you did by the lake on Naboo" indeed. > *huurrghhh!!* I've not seen the film but I did read that the dialogue was stinted. Apparently it's not coming out on VHS so I'll have to wait for it to show up a TV channel and put up with the commercials. OTOH, that gives me time for foraging in the kitchen and potty breaks.

In that case, imagine it as the same film but set on a British wartime airfield. "I say Roger (or is that pronounced Woger), that's not on old boy!" There, it works! > Bill Banaszak, MFE Sr. > who missed the big fight in SW I the first time because I couldn't hold > out any longer. Were you one of the people queuing around the block as in the documentaries ? That's something to tell the grandchildren, any grandchildren - and no Werther's. Richard.

Actually, even the fights were dull. Compare *any* of the fights from Eps. I-III (with their fuzzy cinematography; poor two-dimensional and flat composition; and an awkward Williams music score); with the brilliantly realized fight between Vader and Luke in "The Empire Strikes Back". The cheesiest scene, though, is one of the final scenes in III: Anakin/Darth's "Nooooooooooooooo!!!!" scene. A coworker compared his physical actions to a typical "Frankenstein" scene. I corrected him: It was more like PHIL HARTMAN'S "Frankenstein" (re: SNL's "Tarzan, Tonto, and Frankenstein" skits). :o) SignatureGreg Heilers Registered Linux user #328317 - SlackWare 10.2 (2.6.13) AUS .....

I-III (with their fuzzy cinematography; poor two-dimensional and flat composition; and an awkward Williams music score); Hmmm... I don't know... Empire was good, but the 3-way fight in Ep1 was quite a rush, and I _really_ enjoyed the 'Dual of the Fates' score. >> In article <6YadnRXAMLf42cbZRVnyrg@bt.com>, Richard Brooks >> [quoted text clipped - 49 lines] > >:o) i haven't got there yet. i'm still 40 minutes before the end. i can't even take it in one spew. >>> In article <6YadnRXAMLf42cbZRVnyrg@bt.com>, Richard Brooks >>> [quoted text clipped - 52 lines] > i haven't got there yet. i'm still 40 minutes before the > end. i can't even take it in one spew. Well...you *do* have one bright spot coming up. The final scene with Obi Wan and Anakin has one redeeming aspect. Ewan McGregor actually appears to accomplish "acting" in this scene.

You should invest in one of those new technology video players, "BetaMax" I think they're called?

I remember one owner who was sure that the East Coast would eventually catch on to Beta. I wonder what he does with that piece now. Maybe he repainted it with my air brush?
