To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Interesting interview with producer Gary Kurtz as he look back at the StarWars film, in which he say that the prequels and Jedi were made to sell toys. Which confirms my view of the prequels as being nothing but one long toy advert and the only reason for having ewoks in Jedi
Nice to get some background like that on Star Wars. I knew Lucas made some coin off the toys but didn't know he sold out to it and it probably changed the creative direction of the movies.
Is there still good in Lucas/Vader? I tend to think not. Watching him and the Jabba-esque Rick Mcallum pimping the prequels, and then suffering the experience of watching the movies, spoke volumes about Lucas' conversion to the Dark Side of corporate film-making. I feel for Kurtz. Empire is my favourite, by a country mile.
Hell yeah.
