Oh, so that's why that shot sucked. I always felt that vent was missing something. It would have been better if there had been a pair of ewoks behind the vent blowing the gas into the room through straws while whispering "yub yub" to each other.

Lucas clearly intended to have a dewback singing behind that vent, that's why he'll throw that into the 3D version of TPM.

You know, it occurs to me that Jedi Knight had a very strong Indiana Jones feel. The protagonist is a stubbly, rough-around-the-edges badass who uses a unique signature weapon. He's chasing a weird evil guy who is trying to discover a mystical artifact of immense power. Along the way he visits numerous exotic locations and fights Nazis Space Nazis as he tracks the main bad guy and the artifact. He fights the bad guy's beautiful but deadly female assistant. He crashes an airplane a spaceship. Eventually they end up in an arid desert canyon and have their big showdown. All of this is set to a score by John Williams. I mean, if you told me to imagine "Indiana Jones in a sci-fi setting" it would end up pretty drat close to Jedi Knight.

Maybe it was just the pixelation, but Jedi Knight seemed closer to that grungy, worn aesthetic that made the OT so interesting, rather than the excessively clean, smooth environments from Jedi Outcast and later games. I wish it ran on Vista.

You know Jedi Knight is on steam and totally works on vista, right? Dark Forces as well.

Is there any word on a follow-up to Dark Forces 4: Jedi Knight 3: Jedi Outcast 2: Jedi Academy? I thought they were a great series of games, and they got good reviews.

LucasArts just had a huge management shake up and Lucas hates the original trilogy stuff so it will be released the same time as Duke Nukem Forever.

That DICK! posted:

My friend and I had a little in-joke about that. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon subscribe to this crazy made up drunken notion that Anakin blindly follows, Palpatine takes advantage of it and starts talking about "midichlorians" doing all sorts of badass poo poo. Then Anakin confronts the council about not being a master.

"What are you talking about?! I have more midichlorians than all of you!"

And then the council laughs their asses off as Anakin stands there dumbfounded, with that little pissed off face on his... face.

You know the one.

This sounds like an episode of Always Sunny.

Perhaps Lucas can make the live action show It's Always Sunny on Coruscant.

What you guys are forgetting is that the estate tax will necessitate the selling of portions of the Lucas media empire. This means the rights to all the movies and tv shows will be for sale unless the kids have poo poo tons of money. I say we get a goon collection going to buy the rights to the holiday special and remake it with the cast of either 30 Rock or It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Clone Wars... how do you do the three awesome Nightsisters episodes and then follow it up with the latest three where you reveal to Anakin whats gonna happen and then wipe his memory within 3 minutes. I want to stab my eyes out.


But the ending is the best! It was all a dream!

gently caress Lucas.

^^ How come you got a stupid newbie-avatar and I didn't? I'm so sick of all these forums.

I just missed out on an ebay auction for an original Rebel Trooper helmet I don't know what the hell I would have done with it, but still.

Uh, wear it around town?

In-universe, it was written by a random Ewok named, oh, let's say... "Moe".

Who is also force sensitive and helped the rebellion steal a portion of the Death Star plans. Get your back stories right!

Well FDR was. Churchill was just lucky nobody else with balls was up for election when the war started (not a slight on poor Chamberlain). He had the tactical military sense of one of the shittier minor EU villains.

Good thing for Hitler he didn't have kids or Churchill would be trying to kidnap them every other week.

Is it bad that I think the blooper reels from the prequels are better than the movies themselves?

Watching the Holiday Special right now. Starts off with a cool Han and Chewie moment, outrunning the Imperials. I'm gonna go with it goes downhill from here, seeing as how 'A long time ago, in a galaxy, far, far away...' was just simple text on the screen, and not the traditional scrawl, coupled with the cheesy announcer spewing 'THE STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL!!!' absolutely SCREAMS 'WE THREW THIS TOGETHER!!!'.

...why do I kill my childhood by watching stuff like this?

:edit: Oh god, the cameo snapshots! Carrie Fisher looks so loving stoned. So stoned.

:edit edit: gently caress this, I got to baby Wookie taking the trash out, and have to turn it off. Wow. I at least got 5 minutes into 2girls1cup. drat.

You miss all the good parts if you stop it early! You get to see carrie fisher stumble around the set! And don't forget the sweet cartoon that is the first appearence of Boba Fett.

Here's an interesting fact about the Holiday Special: Carrie Fisher doesn't remember making the movie.

I accept this into my personal canon.

That's some G-Level poo poo right there. Lucas is going to release a special edition of the commercial which will have Starkiller hiding the death star plan in the can of whatever the gently caress they're selling.
