I’m not an expert, but that looks like Photoshop to me... of course, maybe that’s what they’re using at Lucasfilm these days.

Yeah, Lucas was once a visionary. Hell, he’s the one that first inspired me to be a filmmaker. But Lucas took the quick and easy path to greed and the self-indulgent pillaging of our cherished memories. Fuck you George Lucas, and the digital-Tauntan-that-wasn’t-there-in-the-original-version you rode in on...

AAAAiIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE! Don't do it! Each time I close my eyes, control my breathing, count to ten, and chant to myself, "they're his movies, I can deal with it...", he pulls something else. This may well be fake, but the fact that we're immediately ready to assume they're not, shows what we've been through. What sense does a young Anakin and old Obi Wan make?! Urg. If I had a more reliable memory, I'd just rely on that and say screw the DVDs.

That looks so fake I'm insulted the person who created thought I'd be dumb enough to believe they're real.

Something about that image doesn't seem right, it has to be a fake.

I pray it's a fake. I mean, just from a logical standpoint, if he was going to insert a young Anakin into that shot, wouldn't he do the same for Ben? Hopefully it's bullshit.

the highlight of the space epic will be a thrilling lightsabre clash between Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) while surfing on lava


That right there should tell you all you need to know about the "quality" of the upcoming film... :oh_no:

The long-awaited final Star Wars blockbuster will be called Birth Of The Empire, movie insiders have revealed to Brtish tabloid The Sun and the highlight of the space epic will be a thrilling lightsabre clash between Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) while surfing on lava.

They said British, and Tabloid in one sentence... fellas, its as fake as it gets.

No, because Ben Kenobi died as an old man.

He didn't really die persay as much as he dissappeard and decided to hang out with ghosts and be a ghost to "fit in with the crowd". Then again, I could be wrong...

I can't remember if Vader/old Anakin faded away when he died and Luke burned the armor, or if Luke burned the un-faded body. Maybe this would have something to do with Liam Nieson's body not disappearing and the whole logic behind the "who fades and who doesn't" thing. Or maybe I'm reading too much into it, and he's just blowing it again.

All this may just be tabloid trash and all, but think about it. Would you put any of that past Lucas? I don't even really like Star Wars but I know 'ole Star Wars George would digitally enhance and re-edit his own mother if he thought he could make a quick buck off it.

The fact that hordes of fans worship Lucas while he shits all over them completely blows my mind.

Perhaps the same could be said of all religions... < / dracula >

Seriously, though, it's kind of sad. Especially when they still cosplay as SW characters to get in line. Star Wars fans are pretty much the juggalos of sci-fi. :p

Everyone needs to steal episode III from the internet. Don't go see it in the theater.

It was just the armor burning down on Endor, im 99% sure of it. Anakin Skywalker faded away just like yoda and obi-wan kenobi did when they died.

Either way, i hate Georgey boy for Ep 1 and 2. Im going to see episode 3 very intoxicated and hopefully the words i yell at the screen get me kicked out of the theatre.

Dude - I'm gonna take my original vhs trilogy, burn it on dvd, and sell the sheeite out of 'em. And I won't feel a shred of guilt either - fucking with Han's attitude is like fucking with my emotions or some shit :D.

HMMMM, tis true.

Why then even bother faking such a screen? Unless plans to digitally replace the actor's face in ROTJ with that of an aged Hayden Christiansen
