theEviljedi
Where were we? Ah yes,Toonbuck.

Dim
I've come to the conclusion that GL based her on some woman he really doesn't like laughing out loud

theEviljedi
laughing out loud Really Dim? I thought she was kind of sexy.laughing out loud Anyway,the last 6 select pics have been pretty big let downs. I hope tomorrow's is good. I seek Yoda and Yoda is who I want to see in the new select. How' bout you guys?

Ratcat
I still want to see Shmi. Looks like a late night tonight then.

Ratcat
Sorry to double post but no ones following up on this.

I was wondering, will we get a select pict tonight after the three yesterday? Maybe they'll think that was enough for one week????<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT="erm">

Ratcat
Alas no Shmi, but some kind of building structure with rocks in the doorways

Darth Daft
All I wanna say at the moment is Malastare.

Ratcat
Hmmmm, maybe. I don't know enough about that planet to say. I'm guessing that a rocky terrian would be a feature?

Darth Daft
Well Malastare has been potrayed as being a rocky planet in Star Wars Episode 1 Racer. It's a Lucasarts game, so perhaps they got the info from GL of what terrain the planet would have, kind of like how they used the Naboo Starfighter in Rogue Squadron. Malastare also has green lakes. Perhaps they will feature.

theEviljedi
There hasn't been a good select since the one w/ Anakin meditating. When will we get one?

Darth Daft
Actually, I thought the Anakin one was a little dull and the past few ones such as the Tatooine/Jawa/Sunset one and the hyperspace one were some of the best. I guess we all have our own opinions.

Dim
Yeah..I liked the headshot of the woman in the black veil..and everyone else thought it was lame...go figure.

theEviljedi
I liked that clown-looking creature when no when else did too.

Ratcat

theEviljedi
I liked that too.smile

Let's hear everybody's Top 10 predictions what Select #23 will be, and see if anybody is correct?

#10 - Shmi Skywalker seated in a chair of somekind
#9 - Droids (a few weird looking droids, in the night-club scene)
#8 - Mace Windu (sitting in his Jedi Council Chair
#7 - Alien creature holding a weapon
#6 - Senate Chambers Boxed Seats
#5 - Natalie Portman as Padme in a new weird outfit
#4 - Obi-Wan Kenobi holding his fake lightsaber blade
#3 - Rick McCallum holding a cue-card that says "How do you like this picture, guys?", and behind him is the front-loading ramp of the Royal Starship.
#2 - Hayden Christensen in a sharp clear photo running out a door of the nightclub
#1 - NATALIE PORTMAN as Padme in a beautful shot of her wearing the white outfit, with the silver/grey arm-bands.

What are your choices?

Darth Daft
Some of these aren't really what I want to see in the next select pic, but ones that I think are very possible. They're in no particular order.

10: An image of a new weapon perhaps?
9: A sculptor hard at work on a model of an alien's face.
8: Ahmed Best in the Jar Jar uniform.
7: A new unseen Jedi Knight.
6: An image of Sidious hidden within in his robes.
5: A view of a lightsabre duel going on in the distance.
4: A close-up of a matte painting
3: Mace Windu in action
2: A Cloning Facility Tank (if there's such thing)
1: Anakin with his lightsabre activated

theEviljedi
Yoda, Yoda, Yoda. I seek Yoda.

Boshuda
Mmmmm....Take you to him I will..

theEviljedi
You know him?

Darth Daft
Know him?!? Know him?!? Why he was my war buddy in the Clone Wars! Of course I know him!

Boshuda
Look I so old to young eyes?....

Darth Daft
No.....of course not!

Boshuda
Yes...Yes I do.(Believe it baby!!)

theEviljedi
When you post as many times as I,look as good you will not. stick out tongue

Darth Daft
laughing out loud Good one EJ

Out of a matter of interest, can anyone see any patterns with the select pics? What I mean is do LFL release certain types depending on their numbers or something?
For instance, all the odd-numbered ones have a person in them (whereas certain ones like Select 4, 6, 12, 22 don't)

Just basic things like that which could help us determine what the next pic will be. My example was pretty lame, I know, but it should give you an idea of what I'm trying to say.

Darth Daft
(Sorry to double post. It seemed a seperate post would be more suitable)

Ha! You see? Select number 23, an odd-numbered pic, does indeed have a person in it. I think I'm on to something here.
Well anyway, it's pretty boring and I have no idea who the guy with the hat is. Got a bit of a large belly though.

theEviljedi
I bet we will eventually see a select with Hayden strangling a Tusken as a joke like the Jango rain battle.

Raz
Do you think the select image might have been squashed?

Heres a streched version (with comments):

theEviljedi
I'll tell you one thing-that's not George Lucas. Scan in and you will see that the man does not have a beard.

the Whill
It's Andy Secombe (Watto). I don't think the shadow is Hayden Christiansen, because it looks like he has glasses on.

theEviljedi
I thought that was Andy too.smile

Ratcat
Not sure about the stretching thing. Makes the pitdroid look too flat.

yodaadoy9
I don't know about that, it doesn't look to flat to me

Dim
I think it might be a little too streched too..the pit droid doesn't look quite right to me either. But it could be Lucas, He's got a watch like that..and with is beard being white it doesn't alway show up well in strong light.

Raz
Actually on second thought, it may be Andrew Secombe sitting outside Wattos shop. A sign that we will see Watto in Ep2.
But why would they take Secombe to Tatooine if he just does the voice-overs?

Heres a pic if noone knows what he looks like:

http://www.episode-ii.co.uk/images/people/andrew_secombe_watto.jpg

Dim
Now why do you think it might be Secombe?...

Raz
The set looks like it might be outside Wattos shop. Who could be sitting there? Preferably Watto, but in this case the man behind Watto. (Thats my reasoning smokin' )

theEviljedi
I thought this picture was taken at Skywalker Ranch. After all he does have a cowboy hat on.

yodaadoy9
but why would they have that type of a set at the Ranch?

King Jedi
Andy Secombe was in Tunisia on set when they were filming Ep1. With Watto flying it means that his eye level would be the same so he stood in for the character just like Ahmed Best does with Jar Jar.

yodaadoy9
good point, maybe it is a picture from the rehursals of the movie

Dim
Eh, I'm still going to say it's George..

yodaadoy9
smile , that's a possibility too.

theEviljedi
It can't be. Zoom it and you will see he has no beard.

Dim
Yeah...but sometimes white beards don't show up in strong light...

theEviljedi
Trust me there was no beard.Side burns yes but no beard.

Dim
But...what about the watch?...that looks just like George's watch...I CHECKED! laughing out loud

theEviljedi
Maybe Andy stole it.laughing out loud

Boshuda
I phoned my friend George Lucas up and he says it definitely was him in the select piccie,then he told me the entire plot for episode 2 and asked if I wanted a part in episode 3..............then I woke up!:-)

yodaadoy9
lol

Darth Daft
The new picture is pretty hard to work out at first. It looks like Obi-Wan's legs are in the air as if he were doing a handstand or a somersault and in between his legs is a possible bounty hunter, although it doesn't look much like Jango, despite the rain in the background.

yodaadoy9
yeah, that's really confusing. It looks like Obi-Wan is upside down and the other guy is laying on his chest.

Dim
It looks like a professional wrestling move to me.

theEviljedi
It is by far the best...10 times better than Yoda even.smile

Raz
Its the scene from the storyboards. Heres a comparison from Sevaan:

http://www.sevaan.com/starwars/news/images/select24edit.jpg

Ratcat
What if you flip it over. It looks then like Obi Wan is dangling from a ledge and Jango is holding on for dear life.

http://www.episode-2.co.uk/news/features/20001222_select24/select_20001222_ep-2.jpg

Dim
That's a possiblity...but the cloth of OB1's robe looks like it's draping as so suggest that he's upside down.

Ratcat
TRue, hadn't thought of that. Unless they are stuck over his head. Guess we'll find out in 18 months.

Boshuda
Thanks for the flipped piccie Ratcat!
It is definitely Obiwan (the boots are the same ones he wore in ep1) and Jango!
This is by far the most exciting select to be released and it came just after i'd seen the storyboards for the first time.....I think im going to short circuit with all this excitement!!!!

I go with the hanging from a ledge theory, as, if you look at the rain it looks more natural..the way its falling and lit ect when inverted!

Ratcat
I have only seen the 5 storyboards that Raz posted. If anyone has any of the other 7 I would really appreciate seeing them.

yodaadoy9
yes, those would be nice to see

Boshuda
Just seen the new select with the starmap thingie! Which planet are we on?Any ideas guys?

Raz
I think its meant to be Geonasis, the rocky planet, possible home planet for Count Dooku.

UnknownBountyHunter
Has Geonasis been a confirmed planet, or is that Raz's creativity kicking in? smile No offense to you, just wondering, due to winter I have backed away from the Official Site and tabloids to hear of new things.

Dim
It's not confirmed but it's fairly certain that it and Kamino are the other two planets according to various spy reports...

Darth Daft
Malastare! Malastare! Malastare! Malastare! I WANT MALASTARE!!!

finti
I also came across something mentioning it to be Geonasis and that was the home planet of Count Dooku, this was unofficial though. But Kamino is new to me. Are there any information about Kamino?

Raz
Closing topic. New topic under "Select image #26".
