quote:"I remember the memos from 20th Century Fox," Hamill said. "`Can you put a pair of lederhosen on the Wookie?' All they could thing of was, `This character has no pants on!' This went back and forth. They did sketches of him in culottes and baggy shorts."
quote:"Yoda's philosophy was quite simplistic. `If you get angry, you're gonna lose.' `Don't try, do.' He has a basic philosophy that is very charming. Not very profound, although young people consider it profound. I wish they would read more."
On a related note, have you noticed how much Edie Brickel (of "What I am" fame) looks like Carrie Fisher? When I first saw her (I was 14) and my first thought was "Carrie Fisher's singing?".
Paul Simon is married to Edie Brickel (for the last 10 years, at least).

Someday, Lucas will die and the original transfers will fall into the hands of his descendants. And if his descendants are not idiots, they will release the original movies at that point.

Well, the originals have been available on VCD and then DVD for years now overseas. I never was going to get them either, but now that my dreams of getting the originals on an official legal dvd are going out the window, I may be picking those versions up.

For those interested, tomorrow's column will be on the new changes made to the movies for this DVD release.

My brother has the Laserdisc versions converted to DVD. He is supposed to be making me a copy, but I probably won't be seeing him until February.
