"Revenge of The Sith" is upon us and the film promises to be dead serious...

So, here's a relief:
Death Star Repairmen

You will need Quicktime and a broadband connection (the file is 24mb)...

Enjoy! [Smile]

Tom, save the link to your hard drive (on a PC - right click, "save target as", on a Mac, half-click or ctrl-click and "save as").

And I just saw ROTS (the advantage of being married to a film critic [Wink]

). It's quite good actually. The opening scene, which lasts a good half-hour, is jaw-dropping and acts as a mini-movie within the movie. It would make a perfect extract released on super8.

I hate Quicktime. [Eek!]

Might have to install it on my secondary (networked) machine because I don't want it touching my primary PC. [Eek!]

Jan: Both QT and WMP coexist peacefully on my PC and on my Mac, you just need to make sure that your PC will not pick-up QT as your primary media player (something to untick somewhere in the preferences, can't remember where but I'm sure you'll find it).

And for those of you who are not afraid of using Apple's player, go see the classic among classics, the mother of all fan-films:
Kevin Rubio's TROOPS
This is a great parody of the "COPS" tv-show, with Stormtroopers on Tatooine. (The file is 30mb, it's a QT movie and you need to unZip-it before playing it).

Jean-Marc,

I'm very happy to hear that you liked "Revenge of The Sith". It would be nice for the series to end on a high note.

I still won't let QT near my computer but I am downloading the .mov files for later viewing as we speak. [Smile]

(Now why people still have to zip movie files even though it yields almost NO compression is beyond me...)
