A tutti i soci dovrebbe arrivare una lettera che spiega i motivi per cui
attualmente tutto e' fermo. Le trattative con la Lucasfilm ltd. si sono
rivelate più lunghe del previsto. Per chi volesse altre informazioni può
scriverci:

A proposito,a chi avesse visto l'ultimo numero di SKYWALKER (la rivista di
Alliance):
le vignette sono opera nostra! Se qualcuno le ha viste, sono graditi i

Bloopers! Ho scaricato questo elenco da Jedinet, ditemi se volete anche
quelle di Empire e Jedi, OK?
A New Hope Bloopers
Maybe a tractor beam was pulling R2 in . . .
At the beginning of the movie on board the rebel ship, which is currently
attempting to escape an Imperial Star Destroyer, after Leia gives R2-D2 the
Death Star plans and the message for Obi-Wan, R2 starts to roll away. If the
scene would have continued on, he would have rolled into the wall.
Weak Stormtrooper
The scene is where Darth Vader is strangling the rebel officer on the
Tantive IV.  The left most Stormtrooper has his blaster at waist level.
When the camera shows us a different angle, the same trooper is holding his
blaster at chest level.  Finally, the camera goes back to the original
angle, and the troopers blaster is back wear t started.
The camera was hidden in a mirror
As 3PO walks past the krayt dragon, he has a large stain down the left side
of his chest.  A few scenes later, it's on the right side.
R2-Baker
When R2-D2 firsts gets put into the Jawa's sandcrawler he looks around at
the creatures there. After the second time he looks at R5-D4, when they cut
back to the R2, he turns his head and you can see the face of Kenny Baker,
the midget operator of the droid, through the bubble on R2's head.
Sorry, I don't do windows!
Just after the Jawa tells 3PO to leave the crawler, as they approach Luke's
home, the same Jawa says, "Here comes the window cleaner."
If it ain't broke, don't fix it
After the R5-D4 unit breaks, and we cut to show R2-D2 turning his head, you
can see the Jawas prepping the R5-D4 droid that had just broke!  This piece
of footage was also reused, if you pat attention, you can see this same shot
before R5 broke, while Owen is buying 3PO.
So maybe droids do get crushes
On Tatooine, when Luke is cleaning R2. Just after the line, "Well, my little
friend, you've got something jammed in here real good....." right as the
hologram appears, C-3P0 falls off the step he is on.
I think he put it up his sleeve
Near the end of the segment when R2's video projector is malfunctioning
(Leia:  Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope) 3PO is holding a rag.
In next shot he isn't, and in the succeeding shot (I'm sorry sir, but he
appears to have picked up a slight flutter) it is.  When the scene finally
ends, the rag isn't in his hand anymore.
Beru's ventriloquist
During all the scenes where Aunt Beru has lines, her lips never quit meet up
with her words.  This (reportedly) George Lucas felt that the actresses
voice was to deep, and had her voice dubbed over.
Sleight of hand
When Luke is eating with Owen and Beru, his cup keeps switching hands. At
the beginning part of this sequence, his cup is in his left hand. Later on,
it appears in his right hand.
Luke just hit the vox-off
In Obi-wan's house, after 3PO asks to be shut down, and Luke complies,
Obi-wan gives Luke his father's lightsaber.  But when Luke ignites the
lightsaber, you can see 3PO's head turn to look at the blade.  This can only
be seen in the wide screen version.
The shawl was allergic to lightsabers
There is a brown shawl hanging on the wall of Ben's house.  Right after Ben
gives Luke the lightsaber and says "This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight..."
the shawl disappears, then reappears after Luke tuns the lightsaber off.
Leia wasn't scared; she knew the torture wasn't real.
When the scene comes up with Leia about to be tortured and the torture droid
comes into the cell, you can easily see the crane that is holding the droid
in the air.  It is located between the droid and the right side of the door.
Maybe Dr.  Evazan got to him
When Luke is sitting at the bar of the Cantina, we go to a quick shot of
various aliens.  There are two purple alien (called Duros) who are engaged
in a lively conversation.  One has purple and very alien hands.  The other
(remember they are the same species) has gloved, white, human looking hand.
She was stoned
When Luke and Ben enter the cantina, and the camera flashes around the
cantina, we see various aliens.  One is a mousy alien, who is begging for a
drink.  At one point, when the alien turns his head, you can see right
through her eyes!
*hicCUP*  Taxi please
Just after Han says, "Looks like someone is beginning to take an interest in
your handiwork"  The camera cuts the  stormtroopers.  In the shot, you can
see the mousy alien (the one with the see-through eyes) take a drink, and
totally miss his mouth!
Greedo's Evil (and dead) Twin
In the scene with Han Solo and Greedo in the Cantina, if you watch
carefully, just before Han blasts Greedo, the real Greedo is replaced with a
dummy that explodes. The dummy is thinner, taller, and wearing a different
jacket, and the background is different.
AH HA!!  It was Greedo's evil twin!
During several shots of Luke and Obi-wan rushing down the streets of Mos
Eisley, you can see a green alien in the crowds.  He looks very familiar, in
fact exactly like our deep fried Greedo!
The special modifications weren't finished yet.
When we follow Luke and the gang down to the Falcon, and we get our first
glimpse of the ship, it is clearly missing its trade mark radar dish.
Cool metal dice
When Chewie runs to the cockpit to fly the Falcon out of Mos Eisley, his
head hits 2 small objects that appear to be small dice. They do not appear
later in the Falcon.
Green Shirted passenger
In the first scene of the Millennium Falcon's cockpit, behind Han and
Chewie, there is a person with a green shirt standing in the corridor. A few
seconds later he moves out of the shot. This is only in the widescreen
edition, however.
Perhaps small Defels (like the ones from the Thrawn trilogy)?
While Luke practicing with his new Lightsaber, you can see the a shadow that
was created by the metal rod that was use for the lightsaber (the lights
were added in post-production)
You didn't put the engines in reverse, did you?
When the Millennium Falcon is being pulled into the Death Star hangar bay,
you can see the rod that is supporting the model go through the entrance.
This isn't operational?!?!?
This occurs during all scenes that take place in the Death Star conference
room, but it is most obvious in the following.  After the Millennium Falcon
is brought on board, and we flash to Vader and Tarkin conversing.  There is
a vertical bracelike beam in between them, that goes back and forth, like a
pendulum.
Aren't you a little tall to be a stormtrooper?
Just after the storm troopers blast open the door where R2 and 3-PO are on
the Death Star, as they are filing in, the storm trooper on the right
several back hits his head with a "Thwack!" on the beam.
They missed a few vital steps
After our heroes have just shot out all the hidden cameras and surveillance
cameras, and Han goes around to the command station, it is hard NOT to
notice the remaining cameras, which are looking right down on Han.
Maybe they're the power packs?
Throughout the movie, the blasters (which were really modified Sterling 9mm
submachine guns) spit out used blanks.  The blanks were used to simulate
"kick back."  The most noticeable discard is after Han shoots the intercom
in the detention block, but before he shoots, "Luke, we're gonna have
company!"  Others are clearly viewed during the fire fight scene in the
detention block.
One step forwards, two back
During the firefight in the Death Star detention area, after Leia shoots a
hole to the trash compactor, and tosses the gun back to Luke, then jumps in.
Chewie starts to go in too, taking one step forward, and into the hole.
Then we cut to Han shooting his gun.  Then we cut back to the Wookiee, who
is once again stepping towards the grate opening.
The stink got to Luke's vocal cords
When the heroes are in the Death Star trash compactor, watch Luke's mouth
just after you hear the roar of the dianoga.  When he turns his head, you
can see him lip "What was that?" but no words come out.
She was in garbage, but the regal, no smell, side took hold of her
After Luke gets sucked down, we can see Han and Leia waiting nervously for
him to resurface.  We then cut to a shoot of Leia, who leaning to the screen
left against some garbage.  We then go to a close up of Leia, who is now
leaning to the screen right, with no time to switch positions
Leia, Organa; a.k.a WONDER WOMAN
Watch Leia's left hand as she grabs a metal pole in the trash compactor to
try and brace the walls.  The rod actually crunches momentarily when she
grasps it, and when she loosens her grip, it returns to normal.  Hardly good
enough metal to try to stop iron with, eh?
Chewie in the Compactor
When the trash compactor walls are closing in on the Death Star, Chewie's
position changes in three cuts. First he is holding the wall, next he is
putting up his crossbow, then he is again holding the wall.
Vader gets carried away with gesturing
During part of the dialog as Darth and Tarkin as they are talking about
Obi-wan, Darth stops talking, but keeps gesticulating as though he is saying
something. Tarkin doesn't respond to his comment until after he stops
gesticulating. Obviously, they had some difficulty timing the voice over
with Prowse's' movements in this scene.
Maybe they didn't run in so fast...
When Chewie and Han arrive first in the hallway leading to the Millennium
Falcon on board the Death Star, you can see the shadows of Luke and Leia,
who are waiting to run in on cue.
Darth wears flip-flops
Well he doesn't wear them, but his image is flipped during the lightsaber
fight with Obi-wan.  Look at Darth's breast plate (the one that has the
blinking lights) after he says, "You should not have come back."  The whole
scene was actually flipped in post-production, but this is the easiest thing
to tell.
They needed Energizers(r) batteries for those darn lightsabers
During the saber duel between Darth and Obi-wan, there are several shots
where you can see a white power cord, supplying power to the lightsabers.
In the next movies, they used batteries.
Lurking in the shadows . . .
How can lightsabers cast shadows?  Happens quite a few times during the
Vader-Kenobi fight.  See them on the walls?
Lightsaber toss-up!
When Obi-Wan and Darth Vader are fighting on the Death Star, when their
sabers are locked at one point you momentarily see Obi with the red saber,
and Darth with the blue!
Black eyes
At several points in the film, you can just see David Prowse's eyes through
Vader's mask. Lucas wanted to make it completely dark, but could not do it
in the first film. It was fixed in the later films, however.
An ILMer lost his job for this one
Just after Darth Vader Kills Obi Wan Kenobi, on board the Death Star, his
light saber is white, instead of red. This is because the coloring was added
after the film was made, and the optical effects crews forgot to add color
to this one scene. The white is the actual color of the saber.
Recalibrate the Falcon!
After the Falcon makes it jump to hyperspace, and we cut to a scene of Vader
and Tarkin conversing, then we cut back to Han and Leia in the cockpit.  Now
remember that they have gone to hyperspace.  When the camera flashes to the
backs of our hero and heroine, you can see the stars of "normal space" not
the psuedomotion stars that should accompany hyperspace.
It isn't just Vader who wears flip-flops
A flip scene happened to the Rebel Alliance, too.  When the heroes arrive on
Yavin IV, and after Leia says, "We have no time for our sorrows, Commander."
We cut to a shot of R2 being unloaded, and you can see that the scene was
flipped because Han's blaster holster is on the wrong side!  (left hip,
instead of right)
A change in the technical readouts (or maybe a virus in Artoo)?
During the briefing of the Rebels pirates, the technical readout for the
Death Star come on the screen.  But look closely!  The main turbolaser
turret (the sunken in thing) is in the middle of the battle station, on the
equator.  But the actual Death Star's turret is in the northern (upper)
hemisphere.
His mic. got in the way, so he moved it.
A common blooper throughout the Death Star battle is the switch side
microphone.  It happens to Red Leader and Luke.
I thought you couldn't fix a fighter while it was fighting!
This is another reoccurring blooper in the Death Star battle.  The TIE
fighters windows change configuration, depending on whether you are looking
into or out of the fighters.
In control room, they don't allow cameras, so they put them in hidden
mirrors!
At the beginning of the movie, 3PO dented the left side of his head during
that nasty skirmish with the Tusken Raiders.  IN the control room, however,
the dent is on the right side on his head.
Maybe it's like a soap, they aren't dead till you see a body
As the Rebel fighters attack the Death Star Porkins (Red 6) is killed.
Later in the movie, as Luke is piloting his fighter down the trench in the
battle station, Darth Vader scores a direct hit on Luke's fighter.  Luke
asks r2-D2 to determine if he can fix the damage, and immediately, someone
queries on the comm "... Red 6, can you see Red 5?"  But how could Red 6
answer?!?!?  He's dead!
Luke and Carrie, er, Leia
Right after the Death Star is destroyed, as Luke is getting out of his
X-wing, everyone comes rushing towards him. As he sees Leia, Luke yells
"Carrie!" the actors name, rather than Leia.
So maybe Leia wasn't so happy with the victory
During the medal ceremony, we are shown a close up of Han, and then cut to a
shot of Leia, who is smiling brightly.  She turns to screen right to get
Han's medal from General Dadonna, but when the camera shows us a wider
angle, the smile is gone.  Hmmm.
