Star Wars Episode 3 Play-By-Play In Pictures

Posted by timothy on from the ok-there-are-like-these-people-right-with-lasers dept.

jflint writes "Here is a site with over 80 screenshots (claiming more to come) that shows the story line of the upcoming Star Wars Episode 3. Some of the screenshots have French subtitles in them." These shots -- especially the space battle scenes -- certainly make it look more worthwhile than the two prior episodes.

  1. Did anyone torrent it? by buro9 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    You know... this should really be made part of the editors task.

    If a news story is screenshots... especially if it's 10+ high res... tar + gzip them all and make a torrent somewhere.

    Then sure, post the source... but more importantly... post the torrent link.

    This happens way too often not to be something that could be done.

    What about a slashdot tracker? Have rules on things only being addable by editors, and they can only do so via submitting a story.

    Isn't this what it's about? Damn... where's that Slashcode site again? Sounds like the time to merge Blog Torrent and Slash together.

  2. Pictures/trailers are meaningless by limabone · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I don't know if you remember the trailer for The Phantom Menace, but it had the Duel of the Fates song in the background and that trailer was amazing! After 20 years or whatever since Return of the Jedi, it made my knees week. That alone is proof that you can take a crappy two hour movie and turn it into an awesome 1 minute commercial.

    Well, that's a full-body shot, but a much worse picture.

    Overall, these are very impressive shots, and I have to say, I'm looking forward to this. None of what I hoped for is in it (in terms of really turning the plot back on itself and getting creative), but it looks like a lot of fun, and a good cap to what I think was a fairly slow-to-build initial pair of movies (no, I didn't hate them, and I do think that they were at least as good as Jedi... teen romance and cute aliens are just guaranteed to turn off most SF fans no matter what else you have to offer).
