Lit A/V The Force Awakens and the EU [TAGGED spoilers.]

His estate was asking for too much money, they could see right through them though...

 

Now that Disney owns both Marvel and Lucasfilm, are we going to now have a dual crossover / retcon of The Stark Hyperspace War?

 

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but it made me smile:

Old school 35mm film and ILM supposedly furiously at work building actual models as opposed to CGI?

YES PLEASE!

--Adm. Nick

 

Is 35mm film considered old school now?

 

Compared to digital crap, yes.

--Adm. Nick

 

Old is new again.

 

Mostly because I like what the EU did with it. After a few years the "ghosts" couldn't come back again.

I feel bad for laughing at that.

 

Latest rumor, Ewan Mcgregor is coming back as Force ghost Obi Wan Kenobi

i thought obi wan was unable to come back as a ghost since like darksaber.​

 

r-e-t-c-o-n

 

and you know that would make some sense, considering that Qui gon taught Obi-Wan how to be eternally individualistic in the force.

so really it has already been retconned. and the movie is higher canon then the eu. so there you go

 

I wonder if Mr. Chee listen's to Creed's "Higher" when sorting out Canon?

When dreaming I'm guided to another world

 

I don't care how many millimeters it is as long as they're only measuring in two dimensions.

 

I actually don't mind 3D, when shot natively, and thought out correctly (ie: Avatar, Hugo Cabret).

I thought the TPM post-conversion was a complete waste of time and money. It seems like 2.05D to me.

 

3D can be awesome when it's ****ing appropriate. Which it frequently is not.

 

I'm hoping that 3D now has it's own subject in modern-day film school, just to teach this correctly.

 

So what about new Star Wars movies revolutionizing the way movies are made as I have seen articles guessing? I was expecting real virtual effects.

Like, they are computer-generated but they are there on the set. Duude.

 

I'm more encouraged by the devolutionized approach, ie: 35mm film, practical model-making.

 

I don't expect anything groundbreaking from the new Star Wars films. I do expect that they will look polished, shiny and expensive. That Disney money...

 

If Obi Wan Force Ghost looks like Ewan..... I mean I like him a lot but eeeww I want Sir Alec Guinness... even if he is a computer model then!

So Yoda will look like a teenager with hair when his forceghost comes up?

And if they have to do a Vader Ghost... use Jake Lloyd.. not Hayden please. honestly...

 

I really don't want a Tronified Star Wars

 

I do, TRON LEGACY was the best sequel ever. great tribute to the original, great continuation, story, characters etc. it was modern and yet still nostalgic. I am all for TRONizing Star Wars.

 

NO!

I am actually referring to the aesthetic look, not the qualities of a sequel.

I want the sequel trilogy to return to the 'used universe' feel. That is the analogy I was referencing to.

 

I think TRONizing it can still have the used universe feel. that is no contradiction. I want the used look and nostalgic feel above all too as you know.

 

... YMMV

Any 5 seconds of Uprising put Legacy to shame. I don´t like 2 hour long videoclips, Daft Punk or not.

 

Obi-Wan said in Heir to the Empire that it would be a long before he could return. Edge of Victory 2 Rebirth and then in The Unifying Force according to Wookiepedia.
