ow.ly/HecjQ I die of irony every time I watch this. :D : One of the fatal mistakes that almost every science-fiction film makes is that they spend so much time on the settings, creating the environment, that they spend film-time on it ---- and you dont have to spend too much film-time to create an environment. What theyre doing is showing off the amount of work that they generated, and it slows the pace of the film down, and the story is not the settings, the story is the STORY, its the plot. Youre always surprised with characters. In film its even more dramatic than it is in writing because eventually you actually take a real person and stick them into that character! And that real person brings with him or her an enormous package of reality. C-3PO is just a hunk of plastic, and without Tony Daniels in there, it just isnt anything at all. In the first film, we had maybe twenty colors to paint with, and this time weve had forty colors to paint with. That doesnt mean its going to be a better painting! Special effects are just a tool, a means of telling a story. People have a tendency to confuse them as an ends unto themselves. A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing.... #StarWars #GeorgeLucas
