Yet more never before seen footage from Star Wars....

Dah! Ok I wont even edit my mistake out... Yojimbo translates 'the bodyguard,' and is perhaps on-par with the Seven Samurai. It was later remade as A fistful of Dollars, just like Hollywood remade a Seven Samurai as the Magnificent Seven. Needless to say, both remakes are pale copies of Kurosawa's original masterpieces... The end piece of Yojimbo features perhaps the most on-screen believable action sequence of someone dodging a close-call bullet in movie history. Watch it and you'll agree with me why! The main man in Yojimbo, Toshiro Mifune also won the best actor award at the Venice Film Festival in 1961; which was when it was released. Perhaps the American Film-Industry should heed such masterpieces such as this other than bombard the rest of the world with the souless crap of hollywood... (oops...off on a rant.... of I go...)

Cool! But where do you begin with Kurosawa? The guy was a genius. The Seven Samurai Sanjuro Throne of Blood Yojimbo Throne of Blood Hidden Fortress (which GL accounts as a major influence for ANH)

OK! Lots of new and old faces contributing to the forums; but who are you Whilst it's fun to surf the internet with our 'cyber-space' identities; it's also fun to know a little about the people we're communicating with! Here goes: Me: is Jahled! Occupation: Back to school web-designing and photoshopping; having learnt that 13 years on and off the road as a despatch rider is ultimately...boring! Age: How rude! (32.5) Location: London Profile (obviously optional!! ) Me! Interests (other than SW!) errr....ummmm....errr Favourite Films: (other than SW! ) 'Withnail & I,' Das Boot, anything by Akira Kurosawa, and sci-fi goreand special effects in general... Favourite Musics: Miles Davis: 'In a Silent Way.' lots of rock, more Jazz, and then a trailer load of world music to idle away the evenings... Favourite books: LotRs, HGttG..., 'A short History of Nearly Everything' by Bill Bryson; 'The Winter King' [3] books by Bernard Cornwell... ..do add other little things....

...oh! I forgot! And I get to make a nice fur-hat for erradicating rebels on places such as Hoth...

Set all your capital ships to a hyperdrive rating of about 15-20 and see how quickly the game will degenerate!

Well I just voted 'Medium Rare,' smoked and served with a healthy dose of cheese...

Aw, you get used to it after awhile, TK. The fun part becomes seeing how creative the other person will get in their quotes. ...and link something extremely stupid!

Create a newsgroup... you'll get some free webspace to host stuff... I had some step by step instructions somewhere... I even posted them on the forums somewhere about a year and a half ago... I'll see if I can find them... they'll be in the General Topics somewhere...

Frankly, yes. It is their copyright, their code, their game. Even if the developers were allowed to release the source code, they can't release anything copywrited: none of the Star Wars stuff that makes the game actually a game. Look at Homeworld: Relic released the source code to Homeworld 1 (w/o actually any of the parts that makes it Homeworld), and still no one can compile it sucessfully. With today's technology, I wouldn't want such old code to develop a game anyway. Better to build it from scratch, modularize and script it (LUA, etc), and allow better editing and moding. Granted! But I can't be alone in being more than a little curious to see all the stuff viewable with resource hacker (Millenium Falcom in the tactical battle... unused wav. files..etc) during gameplay... Your last point is of course obvious, but it's actually a case of someone doing it; which would be a daunting task, and with the greatest repesct to the outstanding achievements of our modder's, dont see any hands raised, if but for the time factor and people's real lives! Edit: Spell I must!

Awol! You've got me all weepy now... sniff....sniffle...

Why? Whilst I do not advocate anything unlawful, Lucasarts have been sitting on the game's sourcecode for years now, it is not easily available to the public, and Lucasarts have not supported the title in any shape or form. We've been asking them politely for the source code to no avail. Is it illegal for some bright hack to obtain it by reverse engineering the game's coding? I think not. We just need to stumble across that person who can.... LucasArts should be proud of this site's continued contribution to one of their cult-status titles.

You send it to me for starters... jahled@madasafish.com I'll host it for you because i'm such a nice person, and i'll email you back with the url link you need to paste into your profile. That's the simple route. Or set up an msn newsgroup for yourself and have free web space to host cool stuff.

Click here! or.....here! Edit: I just realized the second one might be an EPISODE III SPOILER of sorts....

I gotta say Cain, i'm still stunned how you did all that with paint! Seriously impressed! And there I was thinking ACDC wrote 'Highway to Hell!'

The link is shagged my friend!

The last point The_Mask made is critical, Scathe! It will potentially unlock all the ideas and dreams of Rebellion 2 we've all be wanting for years now!

Yep! It's mainly the 'voice of the educated middle-class,' in the UK, I have it on my alarm clock in the morning to get me out of bed (there's nothing quite like a good dose of politicians ranting and raving first thing to get you heading towards the shower...) but it has some really interesting stuff. You can actually buy the radio adaption of LotR from the BBC shop... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/1681480.stm http://www.bbcshop.com/icat/101&bklist=icat,4,,8,101&ivtype=audiobookcd http://www.bbcshop.com/icat/333&bklist=icat,5,,7,417,333

Scathe; any progress with your contact???
