Worst thing in ESB special edition new and old???

The removal of the line by DV "Bring my Shuttle" spoken with such menace, anger and frustration.

No we have DV saying something like "Inform my STAR DESTROYER (Lord of exposition and stand by for a new shot line) to prepare my shuttle for arrival" or something like that.

He might have also have said "And while your at it, please put some pizzas in my IMPERIAL OVEN as I am quite peckish. Also cancel the milk and buy some more kiwi shoe shine for my helmet" Although I am not sure.....

In fact I have real doubts as to whether James Earl Jones even did the voice for this one - something not right about it.


QFT. Lame. And the shot of the shuttle going all the way to the Executor in the middle of all the tense chasing was nothing short of pointless.

I like the new stuff with vader and the shuttle. Yeah the reuse of Jedi shots is a bit rubbish but the line he says he still says with anger and venom.

'Alert my star destroyer, to prepare for MY ARRIVAL!'

lol I bet the officer who did alert them said something along the lines of:

'Exectutor, darth vader is on his way...and he is super ******!!'

All the officers on board gulp and loosen their collars.

Plus the 'bring my shuttle' line dosnt work, because the shot ends with vader clearly walking out of the doorway (you can see the doorway behind him). Are we expected to think he waited around in the wind for his shuttle to arrive? Works much better with it being there already. He would of just strided straight onto the shuttle. In the mood he was in he wouldnt have wanted to wait for anything.

Plus I never found that chase scene aboard the falcon that tense, and the tension that is there isnt disrupted by the shuttle shots that much.

It's still stupid. Look at Jar Jar Binks.

I'm sure he was still part of the Empire at the time of ESB. He probably wasn't a Moff at that point though.

I think Jerjerod's job around the time of ESB was to design the plans for the main docking platfom of the Death Star II.

He cheated...

Lord Vader arrives on board the Executor....

"Lord Vader we are honoured by your presence. I know you want the new Death Star to be ready on time, so I was thinking... this a very nice looking docking bay..."

    I was under the impression that ITV were showing the films one right after the other. However, none is listed for this Sunday. Instead they are covering the Grand Slam of Darts in the 4 pm-ish time slot.

    Or ITV realised how rubbish they are and thought "we'll just show the rest some time next year, meh!"

    Not sure why I'm complaning though; the time they were on clashed with me either being out or cooking the Sunday roast.

    I asked my four year old sister what she thought of Jar-Jar and she said he was "brilliant" which was quite cute. Say what ya want about the PT, Lucas knew how to make it appeal to the kids...
