| One more thang... OK two The Cartoon Network Clone Wars series was released both on CN the TV Network and also on CN's website for free download. I downloaded all 20 episodes, yet I still shelled out $13 for the DVD when it came out later, despite already having a 100% legal good looking copy, and despite not even upgrading to a 5.1 surround mix. How many others did likewise? (I couldn't resist - the review said it was the only Star Wars product which hadn't undergone modification for the DVD release, so I snapped it up before Lucas became aware of this oversight and CGI'd in Jar Jar or something.)
Also, Lucas, if you are going to add new scenes for the Episode III DVD, could weesa pleesa pleesa PLEESA see the scene we've all been waiting for - the one where Jar Jar is drawn and quartered by the Sandpeople and their Banthas? Or killed and eaten by the Ewoks because they believe he is the devil? Or perhaps just put him in the airlock and press the "evacuate" button - I don't care, I just been waitin' six years for Gungan Gore and it's the main thing I felt was missing from Sith. Heck, you can make an entire standalone movie - maybe just do some CGI to Nine Inch Nails' Broken video so you change the victim to Jar Jar. Or put him in a cell with Hannibal Lecter. Or put him in the Geonosis arena to fight hand-to-hand to the death with Stepin Fetchit. "Two stereotypes enter, one stereotype leaves!" OK, you get the idea. Think of the merchandising opportunities, you could sell Jar Jar punching bags, dart boards, etc... |
