Star Wars Episode III: Behind the Scenes Webcam
securitas writes "Soon Star Wars behind-the-scenes webcam goes live when shooting for Episode III begins in Australia. 'The webcam will be moved every day, shooting live for 12 hours and then replaying in a loop while the cast is sleeping.' Of course it's only free until next week when you will have to join StarWars.com's newly relaunched site to view the cam as part of a package of services that includes online chats, outtakes and deleted scenes." I'm not sure if it's worth $20, but it's worth something....

Only George Lucas would even think of making fans pay for advertising.
I'm not sure if it's worth $20, but it's worth something....
Ignoring ?
News just in George Lucas has plans to introduce a special edition webcam for only 10 bucks more.
Mother, do you think they'll like this sig?
If it's like the reality TV show Big Brother count me out!
Will there be an action figure for the guy who moves the webcam?
Sheesh, evil *and* a jerk. -- Jade
Whats the point of watching a programmer digitally animate characters for 12 hours a day exactly?
Or is this for the 12 minutes of actual real live people footage we get.
Ep 3 will suck just like Ep 1 and 2. My only hope is that Jar Jar remains a senator until Ep 4...
"But what of the Imperial Senate?"
"The Emperor has dissolved it permanently"
This is my sig. Its pathetic.
Where do we subscribe to see you do this ?
Do not try to read the dupe, thats impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth
What truth?
There is no dupe
You too can bid on these fine products
Ashtray complete with butts
Genuine floor sweepings from the set
Plastic cups (as used by a brother of someone who worked there)
Fluff from the set designers wardrobe
stupidity, the most successful export of USA (see George Bush for details)
Let me guess, next year they'll be releasing a digitally enhanced DVD of the webcam recording.

We can take this one more step meta and pay $40 to watch the guys installing the web cam. Maybe $80 to watch the guys filming the guys who are installing the webcam?
Eventually, we'll be paying oodles to watch ourselves watching.
They sleep for 12 hours? Wow!
Greed is the path to the dark side.
the Natalie Portman shower cam :D
Or maybe a beowulf cluster of them??
I haven't the faintest desire to spend a dime on anything involved with Star Wars anymore
I'll go for the groovy special effects, and nothing else. I thought Attack of the Clones was really cool when I saw it in theaters three times, cool enough to buy on DVD. Oops. I don't go to the movies drunk any more.
I am still trying to piece together the plot from that highly complex, mind-bending story called Attack of the Clones.
My beliefs do not require that you agree with them.

I think most every one had trouble understanding the plot of Attack of The Clones, for no reason other than its mind numbing stupidity.
.. be any special edition of all the webcam material on dvds?
I'm not sure if it's worth $20, but it's worth something....
$20 would help pay my monthly internet access charges. So if I only have to watch for an hour each month, I'll take the money. Of course their checks need to come regularly and on-time.

"or sold his sole"
Selling the bottom of his shoes? I know some fans worship the ground he walks on, but this is just ridiculous.
Plot. Hm. Let me take a guess. *Spoiler warning*.
Anakin has two kids with Amadala. She think he's repulsive in his mechanical suit though, and runs away. Anakin is heartbroken and becomes Vader. He and palpatine take over the empire. The rebellion forms. It gets mostly crushed somehow, before it even gets off the ground. Darkness ensues. Cue the lights and closing credits.
I haven't watched the last two though, so I could be wrong.
The Right Reverend K. Reid Wightman,
I'm sorry the Mario^H^H^H^H^H Foundry scene was just the most childish insult to the audience I'd ever seen. I was half expecting to see Anikin start jumping on Goombas.
Sort of like a Jedi Jackass clip.
Hokey statistics and ancient misconceptions are no match for a good thought in your head, kid!
call in and vote off the characters we don't like?
while the cast is sleeping
Does Lucas realize how much money he could charge if there were webcams of that?
Karma: Chevy Kavalierma.
If there is a webcam in Natalie Portman's dressing room. I'll pay for that :D
-illumina+us "I put on my robe and wizard hat..."
Dude, don't quit your day job
Don't forget the part where Anakin and Obi Wan have a huge fight (probably at what a bad kisser Anakin has become lately) on the edge of a giant volcano in which Anakin gets tossed in like some crappy old ring and struggles out all burned and battered and is turned into a cyborg (who travels back in time to kill Sarah Conner, but I digress).

If I have extrapolated correctly, the third movie should involve football AND corny teen romance, in space. I'm thinking something along the line of Star Wars: Varsity Blues.
HEY! Does this mean we get to see Natalie Portman wearing a whipped cream bikini???? If so, it will make the whole, otherwise painful experience worthwhile.
dinner: it's what's for beer
Nah,
Next movie we get to see Anakin voted off Jedi Island...
First they burn books, then they burn people.
I'm sorry Anakin but our princess is in another castle...
oh come on, someone had to say it...
