Now if only someone were making a top notch quality EP2 bucket so I could make my clone like the ARC in that show... cry


soon,

so did anyone else notice the AT-TE starting to climb up a wall?


I'll hold off on my bucket purchase --I'll be looking forward to what you can come up with. I have a guy from CTN who can make the pauldron and kama from this, and another source for the holdout blasters and holsters. The bucket is the big hangup.

A new trailer was posted...sort of. Apparently it was seen somewhere with Polish subtitles and then moved around the interwebnets like a classic viral video.

It can currently be found here.

What I did like:

It's Star Wars


What I didn't like:

Weak voice casting of Palpatine.
Animation still too video game-esque for my tastes.
More "negotiation" plots...ugh...
Jabba's son...double-ugh...
Canon continuity is questionable at best (Obi Wan vs. Ventress and Anakin grudge match w/Dooku prior to Ep III?)



Overall, I'm becoming less excited about this project as more information is "released". Of course I'll watch it. That goes without question. However my excitement has been sorely tempered. We'll see...

It looks better and more realistic than the Prequels did. At least this is ALL CGI, instead of 95 % CGI and 5 % bad acting.

I don't know.

The more I see, the more I want to go and see it.

I am not as excited to see it as I was for Episodes 1,2 and 3. But this will sure be fun to watch.

Personally, I'm getting more excited to see this than I was for the prequels. IMHO, staying all CGI works soooooo much better than the crap we were fed with the prequels with the Roger Rabbit mix of cartoon and live action. Only Roger Rabbit was well done, had good writing, and was semi-believable.

Bring. it. On.

I can forgive Final Fantasy/Video Game-esque CGI if its used to tell a story. I didn't have any problems with the mix of CGI/Live action in the prequels. It provided a very colorful backdrop...to...a...monochromatic story.

I have to remind myself that the target audience for this new fare is today's kids, as opposed to yesterday's kids, i.e. us.

I'm absolutely stoked about the new CW cartoon. Everything I have seen makes it look better than the prequels. I also liked the other stylized cartoon better than the prequels. If you're going to have that much cartoon in your movie, then go all cartoon, or do it right like Jackson did with LOTR. George failed in that. plain So, I'm absolutely pumped about the new cartoon. dancing

Even more so since I'm waiting to hear from LFL to see if they'll fly me to a convention later this month to promote the new show. praying


And the movie opening this summer gives us a LOT more opportunities to troop, which is always fun!
