(It pixelated when I paused the video, apologies)





So much for the "IT WAS NEVER GREEN!! Never!!!

Some great other bits from the UOT too which fill the screen nicely.
NOO!!! that's not true that's IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!

I thought it was always just colorless/whit-ish yellow when I was a kid? Apparently so did Kenner toys... If anything I thought it was yellow in that particular scene, ya know blue and green make yellow... Saw the Blu Ray and while they didn't simply go and make the lightsaber blue (which I can easily do in photoshop...) they kind of revert it back to its original look. But whatever.

My nephews and nieces watch them, the 4-year old freaked out a bit when Anakin was burning in ROTS (we tried to get him out of the room but he snuck in)
I only edit the "death" scene where Maul puts the lightsaber through Qui-gons chest. All the rest is fine. So my kids did see Qui-gon have Obiwan promise to train Anakin and then die.

Is the Boba Fett cartoon hidden or is it an obvious choice from the menu?

No, you're overstating it "breaking the style". It would be in much the same style as Anakin's visions, and presumably how Leia has "images" of her mother (though in her case we don't see them). But it would be visions for Luke getting a sense of the essence of his father.

I thought you liked symmetry and resonance?

Luke knows who young Anakin is because they share the same *****in' 70's hairdo.

Default Interesting Article...

This is off topic, but very interesting. Spielberg regrets the changes he made to E.T. and Raiders, and for the Blu-Ray releases, all digital "fixes" will be removed and restored to the original versions:

http://www.slashfilm.com/steven-spie...riginal-forms/

An interesting comparison to himself and Lucas.

I know it will probably be a little while until everything is found, but with people already going through the set, especially in the UK, has there been any word on easter eggs, yet? Does anybody know of a good place to keep an eye on for them to be posted as they're found? I can't hope to keep up with all of the posts in this thread.
