I do, but my face is on it, and while this remains my favorite thread on Texags, there's no ****ing way I'm putting it up here.

Agreed I always thought the images were weird and it did put me off for a bit. Now that Spilner posted the deal with Boba Fett now I want to find every video this guy has done for films I've seen…..dude is nails
Good news: this will be easier to do...because of the thumbnails.

Ryan George (the guy) says Pitch Meeting was inspired by John Mulaney's bit about pitching Back to the Future.

Oops there's a cuss word in the thumbnail. Here's the link. NSFW obviously

You may have already said too much with how some people on here operate.
Cool story though

Right there with you guys. I never clicked on a single one of those videos because I assumed they were cartoons or something. I finally got curious, and love them now, but I guarantee you that guy would get even more clicks if he stopped doing the googly eyes in the embed images.
There is an entire "art" to "thumbnailing" your YouTube video.

Veritasium talks about it here:

Actually pretty fascinating.


Rick Beato has mentioned the thumbnailing aspect of YouTube in the past. It's weird.

good news KOTOR fans....a few weeks ago (or longer) some news was released that development was put on an indefinite hold due to the quality of work Aspyr was showing for this game....

Now it appears the studio responsible for the game has been shifted to someone new and development has started again.

Video is under a minute

I am curious why they couldn't make a full movie based on the cutscene artwork as pictured above. I'd watch the hell out of that...

Outside of the OT and Rogue One, KOTOR is the strongest Star Wars story arc, hands down.

Theoretically you could. You wouldn't want the game studio to do so, of course, because they don't have the rendering power to make more than a couple of minutes of footage in a reasonable amount of time, but it could certainly be outsourced to an animation studio (or Disney could obviously spin one up of their own). The biggest issue always comes with adapting a narrative designed for interactivity and choice into a linear plot that flows well enough to fit within a two hour movie.

Regarding the game, it's interesting to see outlets reporting that the delay won't happen anymore. Given what was reported about the state of the project, ramp up time, and general size of the game, I'd still bet we don't see it until 2024 at the earliest. Also hope that unlike Aspyr, the studio they shifted it to has experience with both PS5 and building an open world RPG from scratch, or we might see a similar issue down the line.

If they don't hurry the eff up with the KOTOR movie, Ron Pearlman is going to be too old to play Canderous.


And so, I'll start the topic again for the fans. Cast your KOTOR dream cast:

Revan (male or female):
Bastilla
Carth
Malak
MIssion
Canderous
Jolee Bindo
Juhani (alive or slaughtered in the grove)
Voice of HK-47

Can have new Chewbacca guy play Zalbaar.

Seems like you could do a locked in Revan trilogy with little problem and massive fan reaction

Movie 1: Revan and Malak become Jedi, fight in the war with the Mandalorians. Jolee Bindo can be in this one, and Bastilla as a Padawan, and the Jedi Council. Canderous can be the touch point on the Mando side of things. Movie ends with Mandos defeated but something calling out to Revan/Malak.

Movie 2: They pursue into the unknown regions, encounter the Sith Emperor, fall to the Dark Side, find the Star Forge, movie ends with the Bastilla vs. Revan fight and Malak turning on Revan, show some of the other characters and their roles during this time - introduce Carth and have him get betrayed by Saul, Bastilla convincing the council to redeem Revan, Jolee goes into exile.

Movie 3: The game come to life. Bastilla gets sent to Taris and kidnapped, Carth and the re-activated Revan rescue her - hopefully with a lot less effort than in the game, I swear I was on Taris for 3 years the first time I played it. They hook up with Canderous to get off Taris, go on the quest to find all the Star Maps, you get sensational looks at Manaan and the deep jungle of Kashyyk and old school Tatooine and bad-ass Sith Tomb Korriban. I mean, as I write it, this could totally be 2 movies. Or make there only 2 or 3 star maps, or whatever.


I really don't get why they won't do it, especially with hugely popular the Mandalorian is. Have a movie with giant battle scenes between Jedi and Mandalorians? Print your own damn money.

I think the girl who played Kamala Khan in Ms Marvel would be great as Mission.

Emilia Clarke has the presence and at this point is probably about the right age to place Bastila.

I'd keep the original voice actor for HK-47, I can't imagine anyone else doing that role, and luckily, you don't need someone who matches a particular look or frame.

I'd have to put more thought into the others

Revan: Aaron Taylor-Johnson
Bastila: Emilia Clarke
Carth Onasi: Richard Armitage
Malak: Alexander Skarsgard
Mission: Angourie Rice (Betty Brant from the new SM movies) or Chlo Grace Moretz
Canderous: Ron Pearlman (Stephen Lang if Pearlman can't do it)
Jolee Bindo: Djimon Hounsou
Juhani: Tilda Swinton
HK-47: Mark Hamill

The more I think about it, the more I want Felicity Jones as Bastila though.

Can you imagine the confusion for some fans if they used Emilia or Felicity in another star wars movie?

And here is where we coached three grown adults to stumble over themselves to really sell that a 9-year-old could escape capture in an open environment.
