Cgi moving matte paintings are fine by me. The OT had plenty of set extensions.

And exactly how is Luke's hand supposed to get into space?
It would have fallen to the surface. Or through the surface (gas planet).

It's BS. Some fake **** that has been put out there to test the IQ levels at a few fan sites. Most have failed the test.

I remember that Episode from the original Star Trek series!

Not liking the new X wing design so far, but far too early to be critical, I look forward to seeing it in action. It is nice they have actually built props rather than make it a Lucas style green screen only affair.

Can I have a minute to do a little rant?

Lucas built a **** load of practical stuff for the prequels. Huge sets, ships, prosthetics, animatronics, matte paintings, digital
Matte paintings. Bigature practical models for landscapes and environments. EVERYTHING!!!!


And JJ shows one ****ing spaceship and people go "thank the gods, he has gone practical, that **** Lucas did everything green screen"

Shuuuuuuuttttt uuuuuuupppppp!!!


Thank you. You may now return to your scheduled programming.

Rory, we used 100% practical in Cannibal Campout.

Are you saying that if Star Wars episode 7 uses 100% practical effects it will be as bad as Cannibal Campout?

Lucas was always into pushing the medium and exploring new technologies. And people expected him to do the PT exactly like he did the OT? The PT has the same kind of technological shortcomings the OT had. It's just that they are more digital.

I'm sorry I posted. I was simply saying it is nice to see a physical ship had been built. I'm under no delusions and am sure the movie will still be a cgi fest...

Master Luke FTW.

Don't really care about much else - unless we're talking Stormtroopers of course.

It's strange. Mark Hamill looks kind of like Ewan McGregor in that picture.

I can't believe i'm now old enough to see an Ben Kenobi-esqe Luke in my lifetime. And i'm sure i will have a figure of him.
