He wants digitally reproduce dead actors for upcoming movies.  A bad idea but if it is going to be done I want John Wayne to go after da bad guys.

Portman and Christensen uh...shudder 



He needs stop this bullshit,I thought he still had some percent of magic he once had because Episode III was good, but then Clone Wars and stupid decisions like these just make me think he's going even more senile than he was when he released those two crappy movies (Phantom Menace, Clones) and produced that crappy Indiana Jones movie. What he should do instead of this is to actually learn how to hire actors that can act.

As long as it's him.



that sounds awful



Honestly while I disagree with exploiting dead actors I can see why he is suggesting it. I mean I was so suprised when in T4 they used a computerized version of Arnold. That got me thinking of how many other actors could play in movies without actually doing a thing just being digitally placed in the film.

I think this would work even better with Carrey Fisher and Mark Hammel. Just get them to voice act while digital versions of them do all the acting in Episode 7,8,9!

But I think the family should have to consent and in the future actors should start including these things in their will.

Fine.  Put Sebastian Shaw back in Return of the Jedi, asshole.



He's been buying the movie rights to dead actors? No surprises for guessing what he wants to do. If true, I would like to know what rights he a bought, so I know what dreadful changes he's going to make for the upcoming digital re-remaster.

*Ugh* I think Lucas should never be allowed to "re-master" any of his films ever again.
