Principal Photography on Star Wars III Complete

Posted by michael on from the return-of-the-clone-jar-jar dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Principal photography for Star Wars III ended yesterday, and they're starting up on the 18 month post-production. Although denied by ILM, here is a quick taste of what the story for episode III might be like (either taken from Lucas' journal in 1983, or just a fake from an insider way back then)."

  1. principal photography is meaningless... by wrinkledshirt · · Score: 5, Insightful

    ...when most of the acting is going to be done by the CGI characters anyway.

    Yeah, yeah, I know. I'm trolling. But Episode 1 was so disheartening that I didn't even bother seeing Episode 2, and Episode 3 has elicited zero excitement from me. So, whoopeedoo, we've got the stonefaced lines-reciting from Ewan McGregor and Natalie Portman. Big deal.

    Yeah, that's Lucasfilm. Two years of preproduction, three months of principal photography, two years of postproduction.

    If only they had some good writers. As Harrison Ford once said, "George, you can write this stuff, but nobody can say it."
