    Just when you think you’ve seen every pic or film on the making of Star Wars, you learn there’s so much more! This video is awesome!

    I was there when there was only Star Wars. It wasn't called "A new hope" back then. The "boring" lightsaber duel was mind-blowing to us. The cantina was incredible too. If you didn't experience the 1970s, especially as a kid, then you cannot imagine the impact this one film had on all of us. It is sacred to us. That is why many didn't like the prequels (though I did). It's also why we spit on the Disney crap. They have no love or respect for it.
    This was a great video. Thanks. I'm subbing. Will be happy to see more.

    A triumphant debut! The significance of this scene goes far beyond its place in the film's runtime. It's hard to overstate the impact these creatives' work would have on Star Wars alien design for years to come!

    The new two cantina aliens aren't CGI, in fact both are the same puppet with the head of the first one turned the opposite way to look different making two different aliens. The wolfman can still be seen in the background of certain shots. And the original two shots of the wolfman are actually two different masks so it's two wolfman characters in the original scene

    • @JenniferLanda
      @JenniferLanda 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, that's true! Regarding the wolfman characters, in the video I state, "two cantina characters were made from that mask." What I meant was that two Star Wars characters (Arleil Schous and Lak Sivrak) were created from Rick Baker's wolfman character. They were most definitely two different masks, especially because they were masks that had been mass-produced for Halloween. However, Rick Baker altered the Star Wars wolfmen masks to have slight variations. And yes, you can still see Arleil Schous in the opening shot right behind Hem Dazon. In regards to the CGI characters, you're right, the new cantina aliens were created from 1 puppet. In my video, I included a photo of that puppet and Howie Weed, the man who sculpted it. The new characters were digitally inserted into the cantina scene which is perhaps why I called them CGI. Or because I still haven't gotten over that CGI Jabba the Hutt scene in ANH. 🫠 Sorry for the confusion!

    CGI ruined cinema. If Hollywood were to re-embrace practical effects in big budget films, it would usher in a renaissance in movies and movie-going.

  • @colt5189
    @colt5189 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Can someone with some authority tell Bog Iger to finally release the theatrical versions of the Original Trilogy? One thing I liked that George did was the digitally composited all of the effects shots which really cleaned things up. But then he went in an added a bunch of new scenes and CGI. Just do the theatrical version on 4K with the digital composited shots so there aren't any matte lines.

  • @Guernicaman
    @Guernicaman 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Couldn't agree MORE w/producer Gary Kurtz about changing & adding things in scenes like the Mos Eisley Cantina.
    At most, you can digitally add things like mouth movements & eyes blinking to make the cantina patrons look more alive - less like masks & more articulated. Perhaps add an odd-shaped creature walking or flapping its wings across the bar (think Watto) which couldn't possibly be done as a man in a suit. Same w/that plant-like jellyfish-type in one of the concept drawings. Do that, instead of another man in a mask/puppet insert-shot in place of the wolfman.
    The Special Edition scene w/Jabba was totally unnecessary too, since the infomation is the same as what we get between Han & Greedo. It's not just unnecessary & adds nothing to the plot, but the money spent on it could've gone to those little additions to the cantina patrons.
    And don't even get me started w/the Greedi shot first fiasco.

    Oh my goodness, how great was that?! Jennifer, you’ve really outdone yourself. I took a break from my frantic last-third reading of Dark Disciple, and sat down with my first cup of coffee to watch this excellent and informative piece. I had no trouble following along, and was only mildly distracted by all those bushy faces… behind the camera, not in the scene! Was there a line item in the budget for beard balm and combs? 😂 Aside from the real-life humans, I think my favorite characters are the Bith musicians Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes. I am a fan of jazz (or jizz/jatz), and I always enjoy it when local bands play a cover of Mad About Me. It’s funny to imagine the heads expanding and contracting as the wearers breathed… hope nobody passed out!

    • @JenniferLanda
      @JenniferLanda 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks so much for spending your morning with me! During my research, I came across a story that Jon Berg shared about the scene. Apparently, when the production team realized the Bith band needed air in their masks, Gary Kurtz used a knife to cut openings underneath the cheek flaps on the masks. Then air was pumped into the openings. Jon Berg said he could see the tip of a blade coming into his mask. 😱Thankfully no one passed out, but what an experience that must have been!

    P.S. So I've had this strange obsession, legitimately not making this up, with the character of Wioslea. I even have her action figure! I absolutely love her, Luke's Landspeeder buyer. But I do so in a very ironic sense. I adore her because she's got to be the worst designed alien I've ever seen. I mean, hands down, one of the lamest alien designs ever made. It's so bad...it's comically good in that sort of saterical way. And I've OFTEN pondered how this even got approved to be in the movie. I speculated, was this like...someone's kids design and they just tossed it into the deep background hoping no one would notice? Was someone really, really drunk? Did this character come out of sheer laziness? After legit like 20 years of wondering and making jokes about it...I finally, at long last, got an answer.

    • @ForceCenter
