It also credits a guy named Simon, same first name as the other guy. Highly likely to be the same

Liar.

>Challenge me to be vulnerable? What the fook are ya talkin' about, ya joker? I don't need to prove anything to anyone, especially not to some random person on the internet. I'm the champ, and I'll do whatever the fook I want. So why don't you go challenge someone else, ya lil' bitch.

Right, and that's my point. According to the convention used for all other droids, she'd be Ello.

This is ABSURD! Congrats, OP

Just put a banner on it. Like the ones with hot moms in your area..

Reminds me of that place that could be accessed via serial connection. You could play an animation of the movie over a baud 9600 connection. I forget the address though.

Too many vowels

The effects are one of the bits which were revolutionary, but seriously go back and watch it with a critical eye.

Its not a good film. If anything its a forgettable chase film which, without Empire, would have been a footnote. I'm not being flippant. It's not good.

That's disingenuous. It's remembered fondly because the effects were revolutionary at the time and it made lasting changes in modern sci-fi films.

While yes, Empire is the best of the original trilogy, it wouldn't have been released at all if A New Hope had bombed at the box office.

I haven’t gotten through new hope without falling asleep. I can say in scroll form, it’s still so frustratingly hard to get through, something about this story is boring. Maybe I don’t know enough to understand what is so great about a drama put in the stars.

So.... the first Star Wars movie is not good.

Its terrible by almost every metric. The only reason we remember Star Wars fondly is because of Empire.

I don’t have ADHD and have the skills to make this, but I still wouldn’t put this much time and effort into something that I’m not being paid for.

Wow.

I’m not saying that that R2-D2 dude is a rapist, but he sounds a lot like Bill Cosby…

Well here in Mexico many people say "Arturito", so... Not that bad, I guess?

From his website, it looks like it was just one guy, Martin Panchaud that worked on it and it took him "about 1000 hours". He is a graphic novelist and artist and just did it for the enjoyment/personal reputation build. What an effect, I loved it!

Awww
