Indeed, she has her merits. This photograph could definitely be an esthetic improvement on the usual ZOT photographs.

Hmm...A New Hope? Now there's a title I haven't heard since before you were born. :-)
something like that, yes.
You are correct R2D2 belonged to Padme and C3PO belonged to Aniken. Obi-wan has yet to own any droids in the prequal
he's got one named R4 that was hard wired into his starfighter in Attack of the Clones, but R2 and 3P0 belonged to others.
Yeah, it "bit him on the arse" to the tune of about $800 million in domestic box office alone, not counting overseas, home video and merchandising. If that's a bite on the arse, [possibly indecent request omitted].
I'm holding out hope because (1) I trust Kevin Smith's opinion on Star Wars flics, and (b) Lucas says this will be the darkest SW flic yet. Well, duh. It's all the story of how the hero turns evil and plunges his galaxy into a generation of darkness.
Given that the best SW film so far was also the darkest so far, The Empire Strikes Back, that gives me hope, too.
I dunno, but I just had a mental image of Vader wearing a whole lot of "Bling". They really should add that as a supplement, like they did with the "Dukes of Hazzard"-themed picture. Go to the source site and have a look... the Millenium Falcon is painted Hemi Orange, with a big "01" on the side and a Confederate Flag on the roof. Never thought I'd see *that*. YEEE-HAAAAAA!!!
Anakin built C3PO. R2D2 came down through Amidala's family -- he's seen on her ship in an early scene in Phantom Menace.
And, yes, I would assume that the droids will have their memory wiped. Can't have them running around knowing that Annakin is Darth and where his kids are hidden.
Oh mannnnn.
Okay, but my way's funnier.
From the trailer, it almost looks like Romero is paying homage to Matheson's "I Am Legend" -- the zombies elbowing out humans as the dominant "life" form.
I like's 'em all. 'Em are all different and have different attributes...but I do like's 'em all.
:-D
I don't think the Episode IV was in the original release, but good luck finding a print or video without it. It's one of those scenes that fans can't be sure they remember, and it was the first sign that Lucas wouldn't stop revising the movies just because they'd already been shown in theaters. That's his right; it's his baby. But I'm not buying the DVD boxed set until after he's dead, because that's the only way I'll know he's done messing with it.
That title page in the Art of Star Wars however suggests he had that title in his mind well before the movie opened in 1977.
According to the interviews on the 1st (of God knows how many) revised VHS release, he had eps. IV-VI completely mapped out before he sold the studio on one movie. As you mention, he had no confidence he'd get all three made, so he rewrote it to get some of his favorite bits into the first movie.
For example, he liked the idea of a wookie so much that he made Chewbacca one. When he got to what was originally supposed to be the wookie scene, in Jedi, he chopped the wookies in half and called them ewoks.
My other favorite bit from those interviews is Lucas' summary of the story -- A farm boy, a wizard and a pirate team up to storm an impenetrable castle, fight an evil sorcerer and rescue a princess. Get past the sci-fi trappings, and it's the oldest story in the book.
There it goes...Coke spewed all over the keyboard again!
ROTFL!!!
GW
He ain't got time for no jibba-jabber... or Jobba.
Did you notice that
in the trailer, the text reads
that Romero "Starts
A New Cycle In
The Horror Genre . . ." That
makes me kinda think
he's got more than one
film pegged for the "Land of" set.
(And I had wondered
why he got funding
then didn't do the rumored
"Twilight Of The Dead" --
Hopefully this means
three new films, then return to
"Twilight" -- Good luck, George!)
Well, that's explained easily enough by a memory wipe; it's apparently a common practice when buying a used droid. (Uncle Owen: I want you to take that droid down to Anchorhead tomorrow and have it's memory erased. That'll be the end of it; it belongs to us now.)
You know, every movie shoud have a cantankerous green muppet in it somewhere...
