Don't know if any of you are interested, but as has been happening with each new Star Wars movie the magazine Vanity Fair has devoted some of an issue to the new release.

They have done so, again, for Episode III. If you'd like to see the really cool cover they are using, check this out:

Enjoy!

Cool, thanks, puck4604. The Star Wars hatred runs pretty deep around here (my Vader finger points!), but I for one am glad to see a little more of General Grievous. The photo is according to scale, right? I thought General Grievous would be a bit taller...

Man, I hope Lucas doesn''t gimp General G. I''ve got some high hopes for him (as well as the gentleman with lines painted on his face - see teaser trailer).

Hehe, Jar-Jar looks rediculously fake though. Mesa CGI being bombad!

Despite all the prequel crap I still have a bit of affinity for the first trilogy. Seeing the original cast together was nice.

I''ll just hug my Original Edition DVDs and pretend the rest of it didn''t happen.

""Right to fail"", indeed.

Well, you may not have lucked out there, sailor. Chewbacca is, as can clearly be seen, not wearing any pants. He is therefore nude and able to fulfil your most intimate Star Wars desires...

So... the prequels were just him exercising his rights? Huh.

I don''t know if that''s due to your furry fetish or your lack of pants.

You know, I was wondering what General Grievous was doing to Billy Dee Williams to make him smile like that.

Ruffian, yep, I live in Lexinopolis! Just off Tates Creek Rd. Though I moved to Florida for almost a decade, I decided to return home about 18 months ago.

In fact, I am about to start Grad School at Eastern Kentucky University next week. Bye-bye game time. I bought my books yesterday; total of 24 different texts...

Anyhow, lots of gamers here in central KY! Nice to meet ya, Ruffian.

On a serious note, seeing the group photo is pretty sad. It is a reverse timeline of just great stuff to crap. The cast on the right brings up so many great childhood memories and as I scan the page across left it ends with me looking at Lucas and shaking my head in disgust.

Oh well, childhood memories are always good to hang on to.

Copied from the Lucas ''tard thread (mostly about Lucas being a ''tard... for all the KY people... hehe, just kidding! I have roots there... admittedly, they''re not quite as good as say... the French roots... wait... oh man I''m screwed)...

...Wow...

A. That invites way too many prequel criticism jokes...

B. What a freak, he''s so f*cking full of himself... oh, I''ve made SO many good movies... I rule... watch me masturbate in the public eye a little more... now I can do something naughty.... I mean... bad... I mean... UNSUCCESSFUL! Yeah, that''s it... but how will I, the great and awe-inspiring George Lucas, do anything that isn''t successful? That sounds like some kind of oxymoron... oh wait... too much thinking... back to playing with my dick.

We should definitely organize a LAN party.

If there''s enough interest, we should start a thread about it. See if there''s any way the bunch could all show up somewhere on the same date.

at the studio i work for, we were talking to somebody who saw the first rough 15 minutes of Episode III, and he said what he saw blew the first two entire movies away. i could have been a Star Wars fan jonesing over the new movie, but within those 15 minutes he said there was one very important thing in the space battle- a return to model ships. he didn''t say if it was all models mixed with CGI or all models, but he was floored by what he saw.

sounds interesting to me.

Well, one can always hope that Lucas and Co. got their act together. I''ll believe it when I see it, at matinee prices.
