I get the issue with the force. I dont have as big a issue because I think it had to be explained because of the Expanded Universe. It was known before Ep 1 that children were identified at a you age and taken to the temple.

So much was left open to interpretation and unanswered with the first trilogy. My issue was the horrible dialogue. And the fact that in such an advanced culture and society they apparently never heard of teen grief consolers.

WE'RE GETTING THE BAND BACK TOGETHER

Ironically, the star wars rumor of the day:

anything drew touches is solid...****ing...gold. Did not know he was the principal writer for kotor. God that just makes perfect sense...

I just stumbled upon these pics. I don't know how truly rare they are but I enjoyed them. Here you go:

But in the original trilogy, they also said that some were strong in the force, showing that some people were more connected to it and likely to wield it. That being said, the Midichlorians idea was still terrible as it became too easily measurable.

I wish Disney would buy the Chiefs...

I love you Princess Leah...

BOIIIING!

Dude what would you do if she was just laying on the bed like that with her legs wide open looking innocently at you? Back when she was that age of course.

Punched her for breaking into my house.

You know how I know you're gay...?

My avatar?

Or did you see me through my window playing Dance Central on Kinect while wearing my pink short shorts and white tank top?

big three are in.

How in the hell are they going to bring Fisher and Hamill in? They both look like Jabba the Hut nowadays......sorry. Ironically, Hamill is close to the age Guinness was when the original Star Wars was filmed.

It's called "Hollywood Weight Loss Drugs."

And CGI

CGI kills fat dead. They'll all be on a massive shape-up.

or liposuction

It's tough to get lipo when your skin is sagging 3 inches.

I'm sure that Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher will have a weight requirement to meet, for sure. Whether or not they have elective surgery is up to them.

But IMO, it wouldn't hurt.

I've always said body wise if a "star" wants to look good they can, because they can afford it.

Fisher needs to return to "Jay and Silent Bob" or "Wonderland" specs to make this work.

I don't know.....maybe they will have small roles, but it just sounds like a bad idea. I mean, there's a reason Hamill and Fisher never became big like Ford did. They can't act and don't have much charisma.

Well, Carrie Fisher could have been a huge movie star but she was born with the same addiction issues as her parents. She was an alcoholic and coke freak. When you're in Star Wars, there's no price tag on blow.

As for Hamill, he was short and lacking in physical stature. He wasn't really a guy you could create a TV show around, nor was he a "movie star" outside of Star Wars. He could have been a very good character actor but it would have been difficult for him to break free from the Star Wars stigma.

So, he did the next best thing and became a voice actor. And a successful one at that. But most of those guys have a vocal booth and media room in their homes, so physical appearance isn't exactly the first thing on their minds because they're never seen.

Plus, he's old.

Yea, Fisher was so hot in the 70s and early 80s....she did become a successful writer to her credit.

What? You don't think his role in "Corvette Summer" was the pinnacle of acting?

As far as Star Wars, no one else should be playing Luke.

I think Mark will do a great job.

Don't give a shit about anything else. Always liked him as Luke.

I feel better about him than the other two to be honest. I can "buy" old, grizzly Master Luke. Not so sure about old ass Han Solo or old ass Princess Leia.

He was actually good in "Big Red One", which was shot before "Empire".

Seriously though, his voiceover career is insane.

Those guys get paid a metric shit ton of money.

His IMDB page is a mile long. I didn't realize he had done that much.

That guy IS the Joker to me.

FYP

Corvette Summer says kiss my ass... Dane!

Interesting. I wouldn't have guessed that.

Haha. I do have a fondness for 70s and 80s B movies.

Batman fans love Hamill as a voice actor. He's supposedly amazing as the Joker.

I'm geeky enough to know about it, but I don't. (yet) I just enjoyed seeing him play Cock Knocker in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

LMAO

did you play Arkham Asylum and Arkham City

I actually kind of like "Corvette Summer" and have seen it several times. :redface:

"Cock Knocker" FTW.

I believe it. Lots of animated movies draw big stars, Shrek comes to mind off hand. But yeah, I think it is pretty demanding also.

Didn't they CGI that guy in Tron? If so it was a pretty decent job.

Yeah, and it was.....ok. Certainly better than anything we had seen to that point. Does make you wonder what they can do with it now, a few years down the road since the last use.

And I think they used CGI on Patrick Stewart and Ian McClellan in that crappy X-Men movie, too.

It was and it wasn't. Did it look like a young Jeff Bridges? Sure. But if you'd compare it to actual footage of young Jeff Bridges, it looked like a robot with a Jeff Bridges mask on.

It worked because we were supposed to suspend real life and believe that people are actually living in a computer generated world.

But I'm with you: Unless there have been some advances in the past two years (and they may have been - I certainly wouldn't rule it out), that's a tough sell to a Star Wars audience that's already tired of too much CGI.

I read somewhere that this next chapter is supposed to be set 35 years after ep. 6. So maybe they just roll with how they currently look if thats true.

Ah I knew it, thanks. Yeah I remember that too. That was done tastefully though.

ROFL yeah I figured. But hey...I'm sure they fixed the subtle things like mouth movement and such. That's how I could tell it was CGI when I first saw it. That scene where he said, "We're always on the same team."

hot. grab that blaster.

Damn her eyes look freaky in that shot.

Reminds me of soooo many porns.

ROFL

That was awesome!

FWIW, I think that Mark Strong would be a phenomenal choice to play an evil character. The dude just drips with evilness, so to see him as hand of the Emperor or Tarkin or an evil Sith would be ****ing awesome.

Casting Mark Strong as Mara Jade would certainly be...a brave choice.

I used the wrong terminology, although I believe that in the EU, the emperor had several "Hands".

I was just trying to express that Mark Strong would be a great choice for an agent of evil in the Star Wars universe.

According to the source:

Good. The Solo children have potential for truck. I wonder if the villan could wormhole to KC and execute Alex Smith on the 50? Just lop his head right the **** off with a red lightsaber? Someone call Disney. Dane?

If accurate, they're totally removing the possiblity for a Thrawn series.

Pretty sure that was always off the table.

Wishing for Thrawn is like wishing for a franchise QB.

^

That movie was probably the first thing that made me kind of understand why everyone was grumbling about 'malaise' and the economy in general. Saw ir first run at Crest Drive-in [back when drive-ins got movies on the same schedule as theaters]. Right before that, pops had topped off the gas tank to the tune of $1.39@gallon.

Then in the movie, they stop at a gas station, and the sign out front clearly shows $.29@gallon.

i just discovered this

In other news, the guy restoring Empire Strikes Back is insane.

Disney shut down LucasArts and cancelled Star Wars 1313 and Star Wars: First Assault.

This is probably better for Star Wars games long term. I can't remember the last Star Wars game that was truly a must have title.

Now any gaming company can license the IP and produce a game. I'd like to see Bethesda take a shot at an open world Star Wars RPG.

I can't this hard enough.

Bethesda and a new story line for The Walking Dead would break my dick in half as well.

For a long time I have wanted a fully explorable, open-world Star Wars game who's main plotline takes you through the original trilogy as several of the main characters.

Would be badass as ****.

Imagine getting to play the Death Star mission as Luke and then replay it as Han Solo.

You could expand the plot and have Han run into an Imperial convoy or something on his way home from Yavin IV, and he has to fight his way out and decides to turn around and help the Rebels.

Then you get to fly back and blow up TIE Fighters in the trench.

This is cool as **** btw.

The LucasArts thing won't really change much. As I understand it they're just basically getting rid of the inhouse development. Which hadn't been much anyway. Everything good had been licensed to outside studios.

I can't think of a worse idea than a Bethesda star wars game.

that's because you whine about everything bethesda does.

Truth is they make fantastic, entertaining, engrossing games. I can't remember the last Star Wars game that could be described as such. Shit like SW: Battlefield was the gaming equivalent of McDonalds, and Force Unleashed was a gay button masher who's best parts were the cutscenes.

1313 looked like it was going to be but it got nuked.
