Praxis rings ruined movie explosions. They aren’t realistic at all. Explosions in space are mostly spherical. Therefore the original is the most realistic.
Yeah wouldn’t want my movie about telepathic space battle-monks with light swords to be ruined by unrealistic explosions.
The explosion should have been completely silent! My immersion is ruined!!!
Plus once all the air burned up that was in the death star there would be no more left to fuel a fireball. So the parts of the death star getting blown away would look normal but the fireball would die off quickly and not spread very far.
It was a scifi energy source and materials emit light when hot. You don’t need oxygen.
Original is assymetric (perfection in the meme). Maybe you mean the first remake?
There is another


What book is this?
Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut Jr, if I am not mistaken.
Thank you! Definitely need to read more Vonnegut.
Yeah, it’s vonnegut

Ironic
That has to be a giant hood/cloak. Just look at the size of the real mouth and chin. The guy’s wearing a prosthetic head the size of a big watermelon. It’s so weird and creative… I’m always sad when revisionism kills something great. If not for projects like Despecialized 4k77 and the sequels, we would never see this version ever again.

God, he changed the dumbest things.
and really, i think it was much better that way.
Not only that, Han was the only one who shot.
My understanding was that Lucas did this because he wanted to try and make Han more of a “heroic” figure. When really, what makes Han such a compelling character is because he’s a dirtbag who unwittingly ends up in a heroic role just trying to make a buck.
I saw the original film in theaters as a kid. When Han shot Greedo, I was like, holy shit, what’s this guys deal? It made me pay more attention to him than any of the other characters.
The Solo movie, for all its flaws, at least tried to demonstrate that Han was a “shoot first” kind of guy and how he got that way.
I think Lucas did it to create controversy to generate sales.
Especially maclunkey.
Years ago I played in a band with this guy who’d write really good songs, then after we learned them and played them for a while, he’d want to start adding a bunch of stupid shit to them and we’d all have to say no, stop that. I would make fun of him by saying that he’s George Lucasing his own songs again and that would get him so pissed!
Usually how it works.
Dead people don’t shoot second, after all.
However people generally don’t die instantly from a gut shot. Whether that applies to this particular alien though…
Hydrostatic shock can do it easily, if there’s enough kinetic energy in that bolt. And judging by the craters blasters tend to leave, yep
Or we can just enjoy the show.
Or we can just enjoy the show.
Not as adults.
We are enjoying…by arguing about it constantly. That is the fun now, right?
I’m unbothered by this change.
