I posted this in the wrong thread last week. Duh! I hope it will be a good watch, some fond memories of watching these 2 films as a kid.

It is kind of cool these lesser known releases are getting behind the scenes documentaries.

The ‘A Disturbance in the Force‘ – The Star Wars Holiday Special Documentary looks fun too. Maybe better than the Holiday Special itself?

I very much enjoyed reading this, much more based on and in line on the OT, and I look forward to “The Beginning”

If Ahsoka was on the same level as The Bad Batch it might have been good news, but alas.

That is sad when you think about it. Animation has overtaken many of the recent live-action shows in terms of quality, enjoyment, and the execution of a story in Star Wars.

And judging on Filoni’s recent creative input it may continue for some time yet.

Walt Disney Studios Shares Four Star Wars Shows Streaming on Disney+ in 2024

'A new press release sent to us from Walt Disney Studios details the four Star Wars shows coming to Disney+ in 2024 as Star Wars: The Acolyte, Star Wars: The Bad Batch Season 3, Star Wars: Skeleton Crew and Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi Season 2. Here’s what was shared…

There are no confirmed dates for any of the four Star Wars shows coming in 2024. Absent from the list is the second and final season of Star Wars: Andor that was originally expected in August 2024, but has likely been pushed back to 2025 due to the writers and actors strikes earlier this year.’

It sucks there will be no Andor in 2024, but I would rather them take the it time and get it right.

Acolyte could be good. I hope TOTJ S2 has new characters to focus on this time around. Not just more Jedi we’ve already seen lots of.

by Christian Rehde. A cool nod to Jeremy Bulloch’s portrayal of Boba.

I can almost hear Jason Wingreen’s voice from the original cuts just looking at that picture.

Oh. Not a discussion but another fan edit thread. It sounds good but I think they are supposed to be posted in the fan edit section?

Maybe ask a moderator to move it to there so more people can find it?

This sounds a very cool fan edit, but I think you may have accidentally posted it in the wrong forum?

I remember liking it, and thought the mythos around it was cool, more than the fact the author did this as a Christmas gift for some of his friends.

Then another friend made copies and started selling it?
 

There is a good podcast with the author here:-

The Fall Of The Republic script is here:-

This looks so cool, and great to see it doing really well in the Top 10s and charts.

I watched just the first 20 minutes the A DISTURBANCE IN THE FORCE | LIVE Interview with KYLE NEWMAN and ADAM F. GOLDBERG video at the The Holdo Maneuver Podcast, and so far, I am sold on this.

As the people in the video says, it is good to hear directly from some the people who worked on it and their stories, rather than just the internet myths and legends.

“The Making Of Star Wars” from 1977 is in HD on YouTube, probably upscaled, at the “Cinerama” channel.

Are we allowed to link directly to videos like this?

Is there a “Tales of the Jedi” thread for the comics, by Tom Veitch and Kevin Anderson on here?

I found both the main threads on Lightsider and Dark Empire, by Tom Veitch.

Star Wars Lightsider by Tom Veitch

Dark Empire trilogy | 1991-1995 EU comic series | a general discussion thread
 

There is a Tales of the Jedi thread, but in name only, for the recent animated series on Disney+

The series has been okay. A little underwhelming so far, but let’s see what the final episode does.

I do agree that not much has happened other than to move people into place for a 2nd series or movie. Shin and Baylan have excelled and I want to know more about them, while Ahsoka herself has disappointed a little. The young actress in the flashback episode was more interesting than adult Ahsoka, and do I like Rosario Dawson as an actress.

I hope Chapter 8 makes it all the worthwhile.

JohnOrty, this is an edit you made? for a fan edit?

I know a lot of hardcore fans of the original Star Wars are very picky on it being the same way it was when it was released, and I completely understand, but some edits are completely justified. Like when they knocked down some walls in the Cloud City. Or when they replaced that horrible Palpatine character with the well known Ian McDiarmid Palpatine. Or when they fixed the lightsaber shots in the original movie to replace the original reflective material shots which didn’t always work in some shots. Just FYI, I am not dissing the original edits, I am just stating my opinion.

Picky? They just want to see the original cuts in the best possible quality and format they can.

That George Lucas made more and more changes, and does not even release some of the Special Editions on HD, or UHD, is the problem.

Or that George Lucas made changes to other directors’ movies, despite the quotes from George posted above, and the directors’ original cuts are not available on HD or UHD either.

If George made available all of the different cuts of the films it would not be a such a problem.

Why not give fans the option to watch the cuts of the films they grew up with? Or for fans to be able to see the various other cuts that others got to watch and experience?
