Star Wars Weekend

[Aloha_Shooter]

It annoys me to no end that Michael Eisner pulled "Song of the South" and basically quarantined it. It was a wonderful movie and really was anti-slavery/anti-racism but of course since it was SET in a plantation, it is assumed to be bad. OTOH, I wouldn't mind at all if the new Lucasfilm relegated SW Episodes I-III to a salt mine vault.

Not positive, I think it was, but it was pulled.
I borrowed a DVD copy of it from a buddy years ago. No idea how he got it, but it definitely isn't a camcorder taping TV.
It was NOT a commercial copy, so I suspect someone burned it from a VHS long ago.


Edit: Still have a VHS?

We went and saw it last night in Loveland. The theater wasn't even half full.

It's one of the few movies that I've wanted to go back and watch in theaters.

When I finally get around to watching the new one I thought I'd first re-watch the old ones in the "Machete order" which is; IV, V, skip I (Jar Jar and CSPANesque debates) and treat II, III as a flashback, then VI-Return of the Jedi, as the finale.

If only I had a time machine.

For me it's like trying to forget I ate a shit sandwich and then eat the same shit sandwich again. So I don't think they order will help. Skipping Ep 1 is solid advice. Unless you have kids who like JarJar Binks and pod racing.

I'll be going to see it sometime this week or next. Just going through logistics with my step son and my step daughter's boyfriend to do a guys night out thing. Not sure where we're going yet but probably going to do the IMAX thing.

I'd like to go see it, but need to convince three others here and timing isn't good. There's a local VIP 3D showing available tomorrow, but that's also a group shopping day planned outing.

I did see it yesterday I-Max 3D and had great sets. I thought it was a good move and 3D made it great.
