Attack of the Clones Leaked

dgris writes "ain't it cool is running a purported review of Epidsode II. Harry Knowles is claiming to have gotten a secret screening of the film while at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, TX. Short story: he loves it." Like the department sez: I'll believe it when I see it. After Phantom, I'm willing to wait a bit to see it.

    You guys run this same story every month about someone claiming to have seen the movie, or have a script.

    1) Its just a freaking movie
    2) After the last one, I'm not sure why you're so eager to be disappointed.
    3) Stop acting like 15 year old fanboys.

    if Harry makes an appearance in the background as a Jedi knight....

    (vis-a-vis The Faculty, that horrid Ski-Fi movie a few years back which he had a minor role in)

    Looks pretty weird next to that Bill "the Borg" Gates icon... But does this mean that OSDN is being sponsored by Microsoft? So how impartial are they going to be from now on?

    Lucas is a whore, and he's not even sexy. What a waste of a perfectly good whore.

    Harry is known for pulling obnoxious stunts for publicity. I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if he in fact did NOT see the movie he has proported to review.

    He claims to get personal showings of features from Hollywood executives that fly him all over the world. These are vivid dreams he has... In reality he's just an obese loser from Texas that will do most anything possible for attention, he's got serious problems. I actually asked one of those executives myself if it was true, he laughed out loud NO WAY, then that quickly turned into anger over Harry's ability to get away with this stuff. It's always amazed me that so many people believe the mindless blather he spews.

    I worked for a company years ago that sued Harry, it ended up not going anywhere for a variety of reasons. But when we were all done the FACTS WERE CLEAR, Harry Knowles simply FABRICATES his own hysteria because he thrives on the attention. This fact has been backed up numerous times over the years by many friends in the industry, including a very influential industry email-list administrator. He has absolutely zero respect within the industry. Aint It Cool is more like a house of cards, it will all come down sometime (the sooner the better).

    This guy is full of shit, if there was a leaked copy of this movie it would have been all over the internet already. Those of you into the VCD scene know prerelease workprints do come out occasionally. Trust me, if star wars had really been leaked it would be everywhere...
