A sillier bridge page, as the action continues. Not really much more to say.

I just found the original SimCity game online for free, and its one of those games I used to enjoy playing about… 15 years ago? Anyhow, I gave it a quick spin and…. oh no!!!
Star Wars on Blu-ray, more extra footage, buying the same disks again and oversaturation
August 16th, 2010 | by adminWell, it sounds like Lucas will be re-issuing the Star Wars films yet again, this time in Blu-ray format, sometime in 2011. I don’t have a Blu-ray player yet, nor am I in any hurry to get one, just for what looks like a couple bonus scenes added back into the film, including this one with Luke constructing the new lightsaber in ‘Return of the Jedi’…

What gets me is that Lucas had this scene all along, and easily could have released with the ROTJ dvd years ago as bonus material, but he didn’t. He just saves this stuff up and waits for some opportune time to seed reissues of the series with this material, just to make it sell more. It’s admirable marketing but lousy respect for fan loyalty.
Truthfully, I loved the original trilogy, mildly enjoyed small parts of the prequels, and really don’t have any interest beyond that – namely, the Clone Wars and an endless succession of video games that I honestly can’t even follow (and is all of this canon?)
I have far too many category tags for Star Wars on this blog, and I just need to give this old series a rest, once and for all. The magic is quickly waning, although I will check out the bonus material for this new series next year, but likely via Netflix. I’ve already bought these SW movies enough times already and don’t need to give Lucas any more of my paycheck…
I recently had the chance to work on a page of artwork for my friend Brian Bradley for a work of his called “The Time…” It’s a pretty clever idea, with a number of different artists all working on it, including a few of my friends from Alpha-Omega. The page I offered is towards the end. Here’s the unlettered original, and the final version is linked on the site. I think what Brian did here was a clever idea in terms of mixed media/mixed artists and the end result is very unique.
