‘Star Wars’ Gets New Tweaks for Blu-ray Release

yes.интересно

Has George Lucas ever been made aware of the fact that there is a line of dialogue missing in the German version soundtrack (which he reportedly mixed himself originally) of the original Star Wars? It is spoken off-screen by Luke before he flies off in his X-Wing for the final assault on the Death Star, after Han Solo says that "attacking that battle station ain't my idea of courage. It's more like suicide". Luke then says (1st, on camera) "All right." (2nd, off-camera) "Well, take care of yourself, Han." (3rd, on camera) "I guess that's what you're best at, isn't it?" On the German soundtrack, the second line is missing. What comes out sounds like Luke telling Han that what he is best at is suicide. For German speakers, the lines are: Han: "... hat der Angriff auf diese Kampfstation nichts mit Mut zu tun; viel mehr mit Selbstmord." Luke: (1) "Verstehe." (2) missing (shot of Han giving him a look) (3) "Darin bist du ja ein Meister, nicht wahr?" = "You're a master at that (i.e. suicide), aren't you?" This exchange sometimes provoked a laugh with German audiences. The missing line should be something like: "Na, pass' gut auf dich auf, Han." Other parts of the film were re-dubbed or newly dubbed into German for the augmented releases. Why wasn't this mistake ever fixed?

Poetry : Dati-mi o bucata de pamant pe care sa scriu...
romanian version
.
Padurea ta este aproape de mine si o pot vedea doar ziua,
Noaptea eu privesc doar fereastra zidului dupa care ma ascund,
Si pot vedea, daca cerul imi da voie, stelele, albastrul sau norii.
Ma uit de multe ori si la zidul de langa patul meu, zid murdarit
De petele mainilor mele, de transpiratia verii sau de noapte.
Sau murdarit de trecutul unui alt om ca mine ce a vrut sa scrie :
Dati-mi o bucata de pamant pe care sa scriu "Sunt liber",
Si o bucata de hartie din care sa fac o carte.
.
Ma uit si la geamul vietii mele si simt cum dara de "umilinta"
Inconjoara acest spatiu si aceste ore de suferinte ale vietii mele...
Si de teama. Acestea sunt orele unui om ce inca-si mai doreste,
O bucata de pamant si o hartie pe care sa scrie literele.
.
Padurea mea este departe de mine si o pot visa doar noaptea,
Ziua privesc doar cerul si-mi pot imagina trecutul ca un prezent,
Un prezent zdrobit de legea celui ce nu vrea sa-mi ofere bucatile
mici, de care eu am nevoie. Si-mi mai pot imagina si casa veche,
Pe care eu v-am lasat-o voua. Si trecutul unui om liber. Si-n viata.
.
Ma uit la geamul vietii mele si simt cum viata, o mare umilinta,
Ce trupul meu o simte in acest pat al odihnei mele si de lacrimi,
Un prezent al legii celui ce nu vrea sa-mi ofere bucatile mici
de care eu am nevoie...pentru literele mele.
Si ma uit de multe ori si la zidul de langa patul meu, zid murdarit,
De petele mainilor mele, de transpiratia verii sau de noapte.
Sau murdarit de trecutul unui alt om ca mine ce a vrut sa-si scrie :
Dati-mi o bucata de pamant pe care sa scriu "Sunt liber",
Si o bucata de hartie din care sa fac o carte.
.
In soarele diminetii, pe tarana calc cu talpile mele albul taranei tale,
O campie al destinului meu si al celui ce traieste ziua, si traieste ora,
Si traieste in singuratate sau langa cei ce dau viata acestui loc,
Acestei campii de alb si de transpiratia muncii celor ce o si canta :
Dati-mi o bucata de pamant pe care sa scriu "Sunt liber",
Si o bucata de hartie din care sa fac o carte.
.
Ma uit la geamul suferintei mele si vad in noapte stelele pamantului aprinse,
Si oameni albi ce isi ascund si chipul, cu capetele lor tuguiate de ura,
De foamea de razbunare si de setea vietii mele. Este aici, aud in noapte,
Si auriul facliilor ce se apropie de patul suferintei mele, si de zidul vietii,
Si de munca zilelor pe o campie alba calcata si de talpile mele.
"Sunt liber"!
.

what the hell is this idiot talking about
below comment...teresa b

i love it so much its my favorite move

ya

who really cares I enjoyed the movies but lets get a life

i cant believe this!! me and my sister just got two i-pads for $42.77 each and a $50 amazon card for $9. the stores want to keep this a secret and they dont tell you. go here, PennyJump.com

The complainers weren't smart enough to come up with concept so they can't comment on the product. WAHHHHHH. BOO HOO. George thinks you are dorks, anyway.

Hi. I think that if Mr.Lucas wants to make some changes, he has every right, after all he is the producer/creator of the films..

What a mixed bag. I liked that there was at least ONE instance of old-school puppeteering in TPM, but the CGI Yoda looks much better. At the same time I hate that my rips of the old original trilogy has the dull sabers (which certainly were bad in the dvd release) yet the new Blu-Ray finally fixes them. I swear, to get a perfect version of the films you'd have to get copies of the laserdisc, dvd, and blu-ray and edit the best pieces together in some kind of Frankensteinian abomination.

Or, you know, Lucas could simply remaster the color and sharpness of the original films and leave everything the **** alone.

George should fix Obi-Wans hair in The Phantom Menace, Ewan (obi-wan) had so many pickup shots for that film that you can see his hair lenght and body weight change from scene to scene.

Upgrading the CGI clone Wars in episode 2 would help also. That had too be the worst cgi battle ever ! If only real actors and location were used too film episode 2 Battles it would have been Epic.

Bye bye Original Saga.

Add in 'Ewok Adventure' and 'Battle for Endor' into the Blu-Ray pack...and you'll have a winner.
