May The Fourth Be With You!
Cause it's that time of year! From it's beginnings as a joke to an unofficial holiday for Star Wars.

Anyways, Adywan's Star Wars:Revisited fan edits are the best. I love the original theatrical version of the Original Trilogy, but they are letterboxed instead of anamorphic widescreen.
Here's a video comparison of Han's rescue of Luke on Hoth for the upcoming Empire:Revisited:

Here's a video comparison of the Death Star attack for Star Wars:Revisited:

Also, the SE's additional changes (especially Jedi Rocks in ROTJ) are stupid and the PT sucks.
Why do you expect that just because someone is a Star Wars fan that means they ought to keep up with random stuff like that? I've seen Star Wars a bunch of times, and read several EU books. Why then should I know what is so special about May 4th?
You don't have to facepalm at me like I'm a moron or something.
The real pain isn't that it's a trek face palm, it's that it's HIM...
More importantly does anyone know if these films have more edits in them, extra scenes in the films? I can't find any solid information on actual content. Such as a new CGI jabba in A New Hope, things of that nature...
Incidentally, has that Empire: Revisited been released yet? I've really been looking forward to it - that comparison video was just... wow.
On Adywan's fan edits? He took CGI Jabba back out of A New Hope.
Of course, given that Greedo already talked to Han about Jabba, and given that Jabba is a crime boss (and crime bosses are known for sending others, like Greedo, to do the dirty work for them,) Jabba shouldn't have needed to be there anyway.
More information about ANH:Revisited can be found at fanedit.org and the originaltrilogy.com forum. The movie is free, not-for-profit and should only be obtained if you have bought a copy of the official movie. There are various formats (.avi; single-layer/dual layer PAL/NTSC DVD) available from various places, which can be linked to from Fanedit.info
More information about ESB:Revisited (which has not as yet been released) can also be found at the original trilogy.com forum (on a different thread). It's not finished yet, but there is a clip of the first 16 minutes on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjfECy6kW2Y
Peace...
Ohh. [/care about Star Wars on Bluray]
Okay then.
Kidding. I never liked Star Wars. Have at it, folks, I'ma go make some popcorn.
That is to say, George Lucas is fleecing the fans for money by further ruining a wonderful franchise with his stupid changes, and I want no part of it.
If there's supposed to be some upcoming news about SW on Bluray today and I didn't know about it, then so be it. I don't care.
Doesn't really work over here. There should be an unofficial Doctor who day though. I suggest 26/06. The date the universe ended.
Blu-Ray's are due in September. Don't know if anyone knew that or not.
But that's why. That's why it's Star Wars day. Because it sounds like the thing people in Star Wars say. It isn't any deeper then that.
An obvious answer, hence the facepalm.
Anyone can tell it sounds like "May the Force be with you." I already knew that, I'm not stupid. I was confused about the date's importance, not the play on words and I don't consider that as being worthly of a facepalm since I don't regularly follow SW news.
You could have just said something like "Well, there's more information about SW on Bluray coming out on the fourth" and that would have answered my question. Obviously.
And it'll probably pass away in some hours. Oh well. Won't miss.
Blu-Rays are released September 12th internationally and September 16th in North America. There's gonna be over 40 hours of bonus material, which'll be on 3 additional discs (and, I believe, is only available with the Complete Saga), and all six films will have two commentaries.
Now stop arguing!
Honestly I don't at all... they look too much like fanart to me. Especially the "Complete Saga" artwork looks just terrible... I mean, just look how crummy the homestedt is painted. And booger-green for the prequels?
I really don't understand why Lucas didn't get Drew Struzan for these... he always works out of retirement for his friends.
The problem with the two trilogies is that, odd colour choices aside, they're way too cluttered. Every single bit of free space has stuff crammed into it, and it just looks messy That's why I thought I liked the Complete one, which is much bolder in its simplicity. But the artwork on that one seems far too simplistic and doesn't do either trilogy justice.
Why couldn't they just have a starfield with the Star Wars logo on it? That would be far more effective.
Sorry. I just wanted to post in this thread. And as new Drew Struzan posters would be about the only reason I'd buy the Blu Ray set, well...
There are so many fanarts of this dreaded franchise, I think Lucas can't find a better idea than using them to advertise his latest product of the sameoldthing.
You see, Yoda is the main character of the Phantom Menace though.
Would that not look awesome on the cover?
(Sorry for stretching the size of the window, couldn't find a smaller version)
Come to think of it, yeah, that would be the perfect cover. At least this image on the cover would emphasize the fact that they want to sell the movie to the people who've already seen it for like 15 times or more.
EDIT: Largo's edit looks too crummy, though.
