I believe BQ was the first to call it, but here it is:
There will be a maternity ward scene where Padmé Naberrie-Skywalker (Natalie Portman) carrying her twins, bumps into a single mother, Ms. Solo with her new born baby, Han. It just has to happen.

Posted by Rory_Stark on 2005-03-11 23:04:45 +0000

Nope, Solo is much older than Luke.

Lucas on 60 minutes on CBS Sunday @ 7:00 the website promises more footage and dirt.

Let the media madness begin.

Im sure all you SW haters are psyched this is the LAST (at least from Lucas...)

Who on this board will come out as a SW hater? Anyone care to test those waters?

Posted by frame609 on 2005-03-12 20:24:52 +0000

I could never be a hater even though I didn't think the last two were very good.

Posted by rladew on 2005-03-12 21:18:35 +0000

(Points to the fence).

THX-1138 is vastly superior to every SW episode in every way.

Posted by rladew on 2005-03-14 19:43:19 +0000

are you expecting an argument from that last statement from the perspective of an "artistic statement"?

Aside from the fact Lucas made both of these, its pretty difficult to talk about THX and Star Wars together (i.e apples and oranges:)


-THX is a film for adults with abstract concepts such as the lizard in the machinery being an analogy to Robert Duval's anomaly of resisting control of the totalitarian government. THX was the offspring of the late 60's/ early 70's 'Film School' era when Lucas was direct peers (and classmates) w/ Coppola / Depalma / Scorsese. These guys all made personal statements AND found a way to have major studios fund their labors of love...


-: Starwars is strictly popcorn adventure with a few watered down myths for good measure... Star Wars succeeded on the Heels of Jaws and helped to define the "Summer event" Movie.

I think from day one Lucas has tried w/ Star Wars to reach as wide an audience as possible (while also trying to be as commercially succesful as possible). I think he has been vastly succesful with this.

Having said that, I look forward to Mr. Lucas going back to making smaller, more personal films (which he claims to want to do after EP III and Indiana Jones 4 are done... we'll see..)

Star Wars is vastly superior than THX in special effects and sound...

Is this the type of stuff you do for work?

Is this somehow a reference to THX and or Lucas?

Yes, I surf the web for work.

It's a THX-1138 reference in a database tutorial webpage.

Posted by rladew on 2005-04-05 03:06:32 +0000

Posted by dawnbixtler on 2005-04-05 16:07:24 +0000

Good call, rladew. It's either Loews Boston Common or Randolph, MA, for a digital projector...

I would personally like to request a REDSOX / SW re-enactment that I saw in tgl's photos...

A Dooku/Selig doppleganger?
Lando / Big Papi ?


Ok... this has gone on for too long..... sorry...
