this is the funniest thing on earth. the source of the crackling is the same as the source of the voice she hears. it’s a traumatic memory that WE hear because we’re the audience. hope this helps
my favorite part of the episode with the training was when the teacher said "welcome to school on monday. this is the first time you've ever held a weapon" and the students all said "we are holding weapons for the first time"
at the risk of expressing a star wars opinion, i think criticism of the grand inquisitor's look in kenobi is valid. his species has an established live action design which is alien and menacing. now he just looks like a guy with a tattoo on his head
Just bought this epic Revan statuette and the shopkeep lady asks me "iS tHaT a NeW cHaRaCtEr?" 🤦🏿♂️😒 I just replied, "no it's a very old character." Disney Wars fans are CASUALS.
i'm gonna do a stupid thing here and bring up cad bane. once again an established species look that winds up looking a little too... human. not exactly human but much closer than those classic grays we saw originally

i’ll be honest i didn’t hear the crackle when i watched it. but she does also hear voices so i think you can reexamine everything you’ve heard once you hear the voices

The Skywalker Saga May the Fourth Marathon! Rules and entry here:
the angle is all wrong, the font isn’t even close, crawls are written from an in-universe perspective and would never repeat the title in the body, and episode I is actually called “the phantom menace”
this absolutely rules. much like type in print and screen design, subtitle design is so often overlooked as 'functional' over intrinsic to the overall feeling or mood of a piece. really glad to see care being put into something i'm passionate about (i really gotta watch this!)

: “Let’s look to science fiction. And there was a font in the original 1977 Star Wars that was used for a couple of lines, and we found this font [...] that seemed vaguely similar enough to it, which..."
hang on, star wars doesn't have SCREWS?? then what the hell are these things (literally the first screenshot i had in an unrelated folder of screenshots)
i'm happy to report that TALES still has its signature little secret meeting between the E and the S, but unlike JEDI, EMPIRE seems like unaltered TIMES NEW ROMAN. bonus appearance by law & order font FRIZ QUADRATA down below
THE ACOLYTE (2024)
well this is a surprise. The Acolyte has a new logo, this time set in PENUMBRA FLARE, REGULAR for most of it, LIGHT for the O, and SEMIBOLD for the THE
looked around for some lesser known art to complete my criterion trilogy; found this early roger kastel TESB, and then cropped a version of my favorite ROTJ poster by witold dybowski
@ShomaTiali
i think criticism of things like this can be useful for future productions. i'm not expecting to be heard but releasing trailers is certainly partly so creators can get feedback. i'm not expecting it to be changed but maybe more thought can be put into designs in the future
THE MANDALORIAN season 1 and 2 coming soon on VHS and BETAMAX. the complete set comes with 8 cassette tapes, each containing 2 episodes mastered in SP mode for maximum video quality! $129.99!
i see these two free fonts used all the time for crawl mockups and i gotta say i can't stand them. but i also realize that a lot of the fonts used for star wars come at steep prices! so i've made a list of alternatives available on both Adobe Fonts and Google Fonts: THREAD
