Slashdot Mirror


Principal Photography on Star Wars III Complete

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)."

    Posting a Geocities link on Slashdot. Real Smart.

    No, not just a message from Geocities, but an actual preview of what we'll be seeing on our screens come 2005. At least, if Lucas follows every other experiment with online film distribution, it will.

    Does anyone have any bandwith available that could make an automated mirror for Slashdot stories?

    It could just poll the site on a regular basis, pick up new stories and download a mirror of the links before it gets terminally slashdotted.

    I think this would be a great idea (given that the /. authors are reluctant to do such a thing).

    (Although having said that, we're talking Geocities here which may survive a slashdotting just fine - it just won't give you the content)

    Hell, I'll happily write the code if no-one else will. I did Avantslash for viewing Slashdot on your PDA/WAP phone so I already have the code for parsing stories. Just need someone with a lot of bandwidth.

    Excuse me... did we just Slashdot a text file? I think this might be some sort of new record! Anyone out there keeping score?

    Or perhaps Geocities has a very low bandwidth limit for its accounts. Actually, I'm pretty sure it does, when you figure in the amount of people that don't even try to RTFA.
