    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    Does the Death Star say "Nooooooooooo" while firing back in self defense? :D

    Maybe if you were two guys at a meet-n-greet asking about the OOT... :D

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    But people often don't read the second half of that quote, where Lucas goes on to say "Call me Conan, beeyatch!" :D

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    :laugh: Well put. I just have to give you a :tu: :tu: for the way you phrased that. Sums up my feelings too. Or perhaps "George Lucas is keeping me from buying the Blu-rays" but your phrasing has better zing! Anyway, for the record I discovered and downloaded the fan edit *after* I had made my...

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    I wonder if George ever has the Bill Cosby conversation [that his father had with him] with his original O-Negs of the OT: "You know, I brought you in this world, and I can take you out. And it don't make no difference to me, I'll make another one look just like you." Oh wait…that's exactly what...

    Which in a sense Lucas has started to do with his replacement of certain visual effects with CGI and the [much maligned] reworking of sound effects.

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    I've read about these so-called experimental films that George has wanted to do for quite a while now. I just realized something: I have no interest in seeing these films (if they ever even materialize, which I'm beginning to doubt). Not if the prequels are any indication of his current skill as...

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    +1. Someone just needs to look at my library of CD/DVD/BD to realize that I fully support the artists in their artistic creations by voting with my dollars. No pirated discs at all. I've voted for Lucasfilm's efforts nearly every step of the way since the VHS days. But now after seeing the fan...

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    I think there's a few who believe this. I view the Lucas/Kurtz/Kasdan/Kershner partnership as an example of where the sum is greater than the parts. All have had mixed success individually (and yes despite the billions in revenue I consider Lucas's output starting with ROTJ to be mixed in terms...

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    Wow, that just explains so much regarding the way the OT has been treated in his hands, along with the lack of quality and story in the PT. The pieces just fell into place for me. And no, I'm not just taking Kurtz at his word. I'm looking at the body of evidence Lucas has given us since the 1997...

    JohnSM, are you saying Kayleen Walters = Rick McCallum? :D

    Not to mention it was kind of a nice shoutout to Wolfman Jack who appeared in American Graffiti.

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    Technically correct. I think "Han Shoots First" makes a good tagline for the movement to get this scene restored to its original version, but in reality Han was such a bada$$ that he got the drop on Greedo who couldn't even fire a shot off. Let's not forget the original scene of which this is an...

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    Actually, having not seen the set myself, and having read no other reviews of this set online: I don't know the answer to that. I have a fear and suspicion as to what the answer is, but unlike many on the net who jump to conclusions, I like to ask people who have seen the material firsthand for...

    Interview Lucasfilm on Star Wars the Complete Saga Blu-ray: Hands on Report

    Don't suppose you know if the "Bring my shuttle" line has been restored? And does Greedo or Han shoot first? Thanks! The answer to these two questions will largely determine whether Lucasfilm gets my money.
