much respect to john williams, but queen should have scored return of the jedi instead of wasting it on highlander.

Luke's Licksaber - now in 5 different flavors!

They should have re-used the music they did for Flash Gordon.
"Luke... ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! And some ewok cannibals! DUN DUN DUNDUN DUN DUN"

I can totally hear "Killer Queen" blasting as Vader marches Luke up the stairs to meet the Emperor.

the past hours worth of posts should be c&p'ed into a new thread:

"The crimes of the crimes of george lucas ('90's on) thread"

Please note that utility data for the entire campus is also included. This was the only data made available with the application, and in order to accurately estimate and verify savings, individual building meter data will need to be obtained from the campus.

^^^this, far and away. its one thing to churn out crappy product, lots of aging directors do that (hell, young ones too!), but deliberately screwing up your past work - so that NO ONE can ever enjoy it again, that's a whole other level of unforgivable.

Just seeing it again resulted in a real-life LOL.

thanks for the feedback (supra) (Phil D.), Monday, 9 August 2010 19:36 (thirteen years ago) link

just the 5 seconds my brain spent trying to process that the first time i read it... amazing

Remember happier times for them?

Ned Raggett, Monday, 9 August 2010 19:38 (thirteen years ago) link

uh... yes?

Les centimètres énigmatiques (snoball), Monday, 9 August 2010 19:42 (thirteen years ago) link

Did anyone ever see that movie? Seems like a complete memory hole of a release.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 9 August 2010 19:42 (thirteen years ago) link

i remember that happening.

but what does it have to do with GL?

My wife saw "Far and Away" and felt like Tom and Nicole had the sexual chemistry of a gay man and a random cheerleader.

I was just thinking about this today: I had this old coworker, in his 50s or so, and when this movie came out everyone at work was complaining about Jar-Jar. And this guy says, "I don't get why everyone has such a problem with Jar-Jar and how he talks – I happen to like Jamaican people."

That's so clueless as to be kind of sweet.

rhythm fixated member (chap), Monday, 9 August 2010 21:59 (thirteen years ago) link

that's when I thought Tom Cruise was cute. Sigh.

The Jar Jar Binks character will be legendary and deserves to permanently destroy the Star Wars legacy. To quote the Rifftrax guys (who really do a great job tearing TPM to shreds) It is offensive on a metaphysical level.

Beach Pomade (Adam Bruneau), Monday, 9 August 2010 22:38 (thirteen years ago) link

just about to watch this, anyone else seen it?

It's so bizarre, it's some strange frankenstein's monster gone horribly wrong, the abject repressed nightmare inside the mind of a marketing executive who is having a bad acid trip. That something so grotesque and hideous was actually - and eagerly - created is bizarre beyond comprehension. He looks like if you bred Bug Bunny and a duckbill platypus and then had the resulting spawn skinned.

Beach Pomade (Adam Bruneau), Monday, 9 August 2010 22:44 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah I've watched that review - there's some very sharp criticism. The persona the guy puts on can get a bit much, but worth watching.

rhythm fixated member (chap), Monday, 9 August 2010 22:47 (thirteen years ago) link

fuckin Mynocks, how do they work?

I said, "Mom, what are you doing, you're ruining my rep"
She said, "You're only sixteen, you don't have a rep yet"

very illuminating interview w/Lucas' former producer/associate Gary Kurtz:

http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/music/la-et-gary-kurtz-20100812,0,134728,full.story

caek boss (latebloomer), Thursday, 12 August 2010 20:40 (thirteen years ago) link

The discussed ending of the film that Kurtz favored presented the rebel forces in tatters, Leia grappling with her new duties as queen and Luke walking off alone “like Clint Eastwood in the spaghetti westerns,” as Kurtz put it.

Kurtz said that ending would have been a more emotionally nuanced finale to an epic adventure than the forest celebration of the Ewoks that essentially ended the trilogy with a teddy bear luau.
