Star Wars Episode Iii The Slaughter!!!!!

"Close the blast doors!"
"Open the blast doors - Open the blast doors!"
Was in the original film - The later videos i have seen did not have the line in and i was pi$$ed about it, i thought it was a nice touch and made the Stormtroopers sound like di@ks.
Different voice meph? - because maybe it's to do with that there's more than 1 Stormtrooper chasing them? don't you think?, Heaven forbid that another stormtrooper speaks hey meph? quess what you're wrong again!

I was glad to hear the line back again

Yes, the open the blast doors was in the original, what wasn't, if you'd read my post carefully, was the CLOSE THE BLAST DOORS. Its a completely different person's voice.

Due to the lateness of the hour I wrote it, I made a mistake in which "blast doors" quote I was talking about... pretty important I know!

My point was, in the theaters in 1977, the "Close the blast doors" line WAS in the movie. It was either removed in the '81 re-release, or the videos which came out after. Now it's back. You can tell it's a different person's voice... but I don't remember if it was a different person's voice way back then.

Damn Hiker, that is one hot, sassy sig.

Thats one of the funniest bits ever.

Yeah, the Tusken Camp scene was pretty violent ((though they don't show it...you KNOW!!))

This may be slightly off topic and I've mentioned it before but I did see a DVD cover--Special Edition of Ep2 rated M/MA.

Where's this fabled M rated Ep2? 馃槕

The Grievous / Vader Connection

MillenniumFalcon.com posted an interesting spoiler about General Grievous. Highlight to read it:

You see, during the course of the film, Grievous is badly damaged by none other than Ewan MacGregor! After this, Grievous flees to the neutral, medical planet Utapau. Obi-wan follows him there and eventually kills him, but not after it is set up that this is indeed where he was 'born'. (Basically, he was saved by a radical procedure perfected there in which a barely living or sometimes recently dead being is revived when need be and melded with the mechanical to remain alive.)

Anyway, after getting directions to the place where Grievous is repairing himself from a member of Utapau's upper caste, Obi-wan follows him there where a fairly anti-climactic fight takes place and Obi-Wan shoots him.

Later on in the movie, this is where the Anakin Skywalker we know and love/hate becomes Darth Vader, in a room/cave very similar to where we see the general earlier on. This also establishes Darth Vader's dependence on his suit. It is established that it is a radical, life saving, procedure for those who would have otherwise died. not a way I'd want to live, but hey...

what the f**k is your problem assh*le? you still mad because i quoted a book I had in my hand that ended up having a typo, according to you. Oh no, I was wrong about something in the EU, I don't have as much free time as you. Oh I'm soooo sad. Get a f*cking life dipsh*t. Yeah, I guess different ones could speak, but seeing as they're simple clones in a chain of command, I figured only the "commander" would. I also figured since all the others sound reasonably the same, that the other line, which sounded different that maybe it was new. Sorry. Want me to suck your f**king d!ck too while I'm at it Clai?

anyyyyyyway,
With all the audio mixes I'm not surprised. Ben Burtt said on the DVD's that there were 3 audio mixes released to theaters. So some of them heard that line and some of them didn't, same with Luke's alternate line about r2 on dagobah, and hans line about "seeing a lot better".

Hahahahaha 馃槅 馃槅 馃槅

I know that's funny but c'mon. Gettin' on my @$$ cuz a book from Lucasfilm had a typo, like its my fault I got bad info? Pretty lame man.

ep II dvd also added a groan after padme gets up after falling off helicopter thing, and extended scene where anakin confesses the tusken slaughter in the lars garage.....

and slaughter can be emotional....it's not always about "guys getting their rocks off".....i often find myself "welling up" while watching battle royale....the drama of everything going to hell, the senseless horror of war, mans inhumanity to man etc.....ep III better get some kind of emotional response from me....everything depends on it.....

not talking about films where 20 faceless people are machine gunned down to a hardcore techno score, followed by a snappy one liner, with no consequences shown here....

exactly, that's a very good point. i feel the same way.

Meph man, i'm not gettin on your a$$ mate. Chill. Just getting my point across in th same way i've seen you do in a few threads

Peace Meph

All three matrix movies were awesome, let's leave at that and talk Star Wars. Go to the matrix foru if you want to talk matrix. GL already say that Episode 3 will be PG-13. They wrote an article on it in USA Today about a month ago. The article was about will a PG-13 rating on Episode 3 affect its box office gross. The answer is no becuase there are still alot of young kids that see PG-13 movies. Look at Lord of the Rings, it still made well over 350 million.

I never flat out say people are wrong like that. I try to be a tiny bit more diplomatic 馃槢 But that's cool. No problem. I'm still licking my wounds from that catastrophe of a thread. Stupid out dated typo filled book...

No, GL said it MAY be pg-13. I certain hope it stays PG. All 5 other Star Wars movies were PG, he should stick with that. Who cares what the matrix and lotr did? This is Star Wars and it should stay PG.

Think of all the violent things that can happen in a PG Star Wars movie:

Ep IV:
1. intense sci-fi warfare
2. smoldering bodies of small, broken aliens
3. smoking skeltons of loved ones
4. alien arm cut off w/ blood
6. alien killed in cold blood (pre-special edition)
7. character bonks head on door 馃檪
8. violent vehicle explosions

Ep V:
1. intense sci-fi warfare
2. monster attack & severed limb
3. decapitation in dreamlike sequence
4. torture scene w/sparks & screaming
5. two on-screen strangulations
6. brutal swordfight & severed limb
7. terrifying fall & precipice scene

Ep VI:
1. intense sci-fi warfare
2. monster decapitation, devouring & death
3. second monster devours aliens & humans
4. alien strangulation scene
5. multiple violent speed-related human deaths
6. humans shot in head & chest
7. sword fight with severed limb
8. electrocution scene
9. human thrown to death
10. injured man reveal disfiguring war wounds & dies

Ep. I:
1. intense sci-fi warfare
2. friendly space ship explosion w/multiple deaths
3. monster decapitation, devouring & death
4. multiple violent speed-related race deaths
5. intense battlefield mayhem
6. main character sword impalement & death
7. main character cut in two, and precipice fall
8. burning human funeral pyre

Ep II:
1. intense sci-fi warfare
2. friendly space ship explosion w/multiple deaths
3. multiple-vehicle speed-related accidents
4. sword fight with severed limb & blow-dart death
5. baby humans entombed in vials
6. intense sci-fi action
7. character bonks head on door 馃檪
8. maternal death scene
9. alien decapitations & spoken slaughter
10. monster torture arena scenes & alien deaths
11. intense battlefield mayhem
12. human decapitation & body falling to ground
13. more intense battlefield mayhem
14. sword fights with multiple injuries, electrocution & severed limb

If all this can go in a PG movie, let's keep it PG! The more violence in lotr & matrix the less I liked it, it became very repetitive. Let's keep it PG!

sometimes things get pg-13 and r for concepts in them as well though, this isn't just about the violence. It may get PG-13 because of the intensity of situations rather than just the intesity of the violence.

it should be PG-13 based on the content, i mean garden state was R for christs sake all they did was say **** twice.. really shows where our values lie.. movie ratings arnt worth shit and id never count them for anything nor should any person with common since

Definetly. People are so hung up on the wrong things in films. There's even a movement no to make smoking in a film an automatic r. Its like, Okay, I hate smoking too, but people smoke. Films depicting real life should be able to show smoking if it fits a character. Its so retarded, and then something like Riddick can get pg-13 with all that ridicluous violence.
