And you would know better than anybody since you're the absolute expert at it.

Why yes, I've been personally attacked on many occasions, by you for example.

Meanwhile I will say generalities not aimed at anyone at particular (hater, fanboy, etc) and you seem to take offense. Wonder why.

Nice job using a personal attack while failing in your attempt to show that you don't use them...

So you're saying you're a fanboy or hater? And that I directed it to YOU in particular?

No, I was saying that in regard of your comment towards kamphausd1.

Nice try, though.

Who killed more people in the Star Wars films...Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader?

I'm going with Luke. He killed everyone on the Death Star, he killed all those poor soldiers on the AT-AT, he killed everyone on Jabba the Hutt's ship, he killed Stormtroopers on sight, he killed the sweet Rancor Monster, and he even maimed the poor gentle Wampa Snow Monster...he's practically a serial killer. And before you say, "Darth Vader blew up Alderaan", no he didn't. Grand Moff Tarkin did that. Darth Vader only watched, he was baby-sitting his daughter at the time.

Luke Skywalker...the homicidal madman of the SW saga.

So if he were to turn to the dark side in the new movies it'd be no surprise to you then?

The Light Side is a lie! Only the Dark Side is the true way...the Light Side is the path to mass murder, anarchy, and high insurance premiums!

Boy, I would not have wanted to be in the Emperor's office the day the premiums came in after the Death Star was blown up. The excess alone would've been astronomical.

You know the Emperor has told the guy from Allstate Insurance that it's parked in a garage at night and it only goes around the inner rim three times a year.

"Something, something, something, fire, theft and Rebel Assault ..."

Only another note, Sky and NOW TV have added the complete collection to their line-up, that includes the Saga and The Clone Wars (including The Lost Missions), Empire of Dreams in HD and a whole host of other stuff.

The Saga films are the new Disney versions without FOX fanfare, they have some awful Lucasfilm ditty before the main-crawl, A New Hope had the FOX fanfare and normal Lucasfilm intro.

Geoff D · 08-08-2015, 02:31 PM

I thought the "awful Lucasfilm ditty" was a cue from Star Wars? Have they changed for the Sky on-demand versions?

Those certifications at the BBFC recently must've been for this Sky collection, no?

It is a cue, but it's weird after so many years of listening to the FOX fanfare run through the Lucasfilm title! It's a bit average in my opinion.

I'd imagine so, nice to see that they have the long versions of the documentaries. I'll have to double-check to see if they're HD, they look a bit upscaled to me.

The ditty is alright, but it doesn't really do it for me, I quite like the opening to The Clone Wars movie, it has the THX-1138 vibe to it, broken mechanical voices over a radio with weird effects.

Falaskan · 08-08-2015, 05:27 PM

I love the ESB one. I've always loved the storm trooper cover since the old 90s VHS cover. I may get that one

Geoff D · 08-08-2015, 06:09 PM

I loved those 'Faces' designs, they looked great on the Laserdisc covers.
