SPOILERS PREQUEL SPOILERS!!! BEWARE!!!!
|
Now what follows are possible spoilers. I've been asked to 'classify' the level of
spoiler-dom by you readers. Because well... yall want to know.. HOW DANGEROUS
this is. Well, I'm very uncomfortable with this sort of thing, because this is placing me in a
situation of guessing how important this news is and how much it will affect your
enjoyment of the final product. And who the hell am I to tell you that? Well, this news
talks about fight scenes. Not in extreme detail, just sort of in that vague kinda way...
HOWEVER, it does reveal something pretty damn cool, which will provoke me to
speculate on the coolness of the said item. It doesn't have 'plot' info, but rather a certain
level of surprise would be lost. It won't ruin the film, but it could have an affect of some
peoples' enjoyment. I'm going to count down from 10, at the end of the count, I will be
revealing so here it goes...
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
The following comes from the Machete-headed Zombie, who stumbles the streets on
England with his/her copy of 'THE DAILY MAIL'. And here is what it says...
I just thought I'd let you know that in a British newspaper, "The Daily
Mail", it had some interesting info on Star Wars Episode One during an article
about Ewan McGregor. It said about Mcgregor, "...He plays the young Obi-Wan
Kenobi opposite Liam Neeson, Adrian Dunbar and legions of computer-generated
underwater half-human squid-like characters from the sea planet Gunga.
Friends of mine have seen some rough, unedited sequences of underwater chariot
races and shots of McGregor fighting metallic skeletons on castle battlements".
(HARRY HERE) Maaaaaaaaaan, I don't know about you, but I swear I'll just crap
myself if this 'Jason & The Argonauts/7th Voyage of Sinbad'-like sequence takes place.
Just picture how super cool this could be. I'd be jumping in the aisles doing backflips and
Romanian tumbling moves. Maaan, cool cool cool cool coool coooooooooooooooool!!!
Now this next bit makes me a bit nervous... you'll see why...
The article goes on to say that when the film is released next year, Ewan
McGregor would have completed filming on Star Wars Episode Two.
So let's see if we get this right. According to this article by May 25, 1999 Ewan
would have completed his role in Episode Two. That would make for the most
aggravating line experience in history. To be standing in that line, getting ready to see
"IT" after all this time, to be there with all the other Star Wars fans, and to know that not
only would we be watching the supercool flick to end supercool flicks, but to know that
the second installment would be filming or would've been filmed. ARGH!!!! Don't
necessarily believe that part though... who knows... maybe it's true... maybe it ain't. Oh
well......
