10 Hidden Details In Star Wars Movies

From The Untenables


Disney has released fifteen minutes of behind the scenes footage from TRON: Legacy as they increase their marketing campaign in preparation for the December 17 release of the film. The footage is fairly raw, unlike a traditional BTS feature, which would be inter-cut with interviews that give the context for the footage. One does get a sense of some of the technology used in making the film, as well as some of the techniques emplo


From a strictly movie making perspective, there's an exceptionally logical reason to have Rey unaware of the powers of the Force and the long history of the Galactic Civil War. Most films, especially genre works that rely heavily on sci-fi or fantasy elements, need to have a regular everyday person at its center to act as a vessel for the audience. Creating a protagonist that audiences can relate to is a necessary step in ensuring it connects with viewers. It helps to have a character in the film who learns things as viewers do as w


Backstory: Countless movies rely on character dialogue or subtitles to explain non-verbal and non-visual information to viewers. As a result, audiences rarely think twice when watching an actor receive (or send) a message through morse code - accepting that any sound bites will match what characters are reporting onscr


Backstory: While on their mission to the Sun, the Icarus II crew receives a distress signal from the long-missing Icarus I and decides to rendezvous with the ship. When Capa (Cillian Murphy), Searle (Cliff Curtis), Harvey (Troy Garity), and Mace (Chris Evans) board the Icarus I, their flashlights periodically shine directly into the camera (and out at the audience). At each instance, roughly 49 minutes into the film, director Danny Boyle spliced in hidden frames of (now deceased) Icarus I crew memb


In the footage there are a few shots of Jeff Bridges in "the vault," which is a room of any size, painted green, and filled with sensors designed to capture the movement and facial performance of the actor. The capture is used to assist in the creation of the CGI version of Bridges as Clu - a.k.a. the young Kevin Flynn - as well as the environment in the scene as well as the camera angles. This was a process which blew Jeff Bridges away. He shook his head in wonder, saying, "Wow man, making movies without cameras -- what an idea! When they first said that, I said 'what are you talking about'


While the main villain of The Avengers was Loki and the main threat was an alien army called the Chitauri , the threat behind those threats was a cosmic force of evil known as Thanos (or, conversely, The Mad Titan). Of course, you would only know that if you stuck around for the mid-credits sequence and had a firm grasp of the Marvel comic book unive


In the Marvel comic book universe, Thanos is considered to be one of the major villains, though perhaps not quite top-tier. Visually-speaking, he’s a bit derivative of Jack Kirby’s Darkseid from the New Gods of the DC Universe. Thanos’ creator, Jim Starlin, admitted as much in an intervi


According to recent reports , Thanos will be featured in both Guardians of the Galaxy and The Avengers 2 (probably less the former and more the latter). It’s unclear in what capacity he’ll appear, or what comic book stories those movies will draw from - perhaps 'The Infinity Gauntlet,' 'Annihilation,' or the more recent 'The Thanos Imperative' - though he will almost certainly be "courting death" at every t


Throughout the classic trilogy, there are only five Force users depicted, and two of them are former Jedi in hiding. Nobody is exactly broadcasting the fact that they're Force sensitive. A handful of Imperials knew of Darth Vader's "devotion to that ancient religion ," but many regular citizens probably saw him just as the Empire's enforcer and not a Sith Lord. Luke gained a lot of attention for destroying the first Death Star, but only his trusted confidants knew of his abilities. Unlike the Clone Wars, where Jedi Knights actively served the Republic, they had a minor presence at best cd key deals|https://gamedealhq.com/ during the Galactic Civil


The Force Awakens picks up 30 years after Return of the Jedi , meaning that some time has passed since we've seen old friends like Han and Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) - but seemingly not enough time for their exploits to have become myths that people doubt ever happened . It reads as an oversight on Abrams' part, but is there a reasonable explanation for how this happened? There just might


The galaxy far, far, away is getting a lot bigger in the coming years, which means plenty of writers, directors and actors each getting a chance to throw in nods to the original films. But even though the Star Wars saga has been pored over for decades, there are still a TON of details, secrets and easter eggs we're willing to bet fans have never cau


Though the cost and time commitment involved in the capture process (it took two years to create the look of Clu, and then longer to create movement) will likely limit its use in feature-film productions, at least for
