Balahkay 627 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Maybe it's the editing, but it's interesting how Lucas seems to be talking to himself when surrounded by a group of people - they don't interact with him very much. They speak went spoken to or laugh on cue.Why didn't they go with the second boy? Based on that audition, he was clearly the best and almost made Anakin's dialogue work. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muad'Dib 1,800 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Yeah, he even looked a little "evil", which would have great foreshadowing.Probably some producer was sleeping with Jake's mom. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbellamy 6,270 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Yeah, it is.And Michael, if you've never seen it before, the footage all comes from the behind-the-scenes doc on the Episode I DVD: The whole thing is actually pretty well worth checking out.

I rather enjoy it in a twisted way... certainly more than I enjoy the actual film.It's surprisingly objective for a DVD documentary, really. It's rare to just see all this B-roll cut together so simply like that, no talking head interviews or music or montages to try and play up how inspiring the production is or whatever. As much as I love the LOTR EE docs which are like the nexus of BTS documentaries, they're no doubt preaching to the choir, whereas this just is what it is...it's so straightforward and kinda takes on an entirely different tone depending how you feel about the film crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 The interesting thing about Star Wars—and I didn’t ever really push this very far, because it’s not really that important—but there’s a lot going on there that most people haven’t come to grips with yet. But when they do, they will find it’s a much more intricately made clock than most people would imagine.lolk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
