You guys go right ahead and bid. I wouldn't give 5 cents for anything related to the last two Star Wars films. Those were more of a waste of film if you ask me [sleep] !

Ummmmm... this smells really bad to me, too. The only two "bidders" don't even have their handles listed.

Are there really collectors out there who'd pay that kind of money for snipped-out scenes, spliced onto a plastic shipping reel, sight-unseen? Geez... the end isn't even taped down. You'd think if a chunk of film was worth that kind of loot, the "owner" would take better care of it! [Roll Eyes]

i thought of posting this when i first stumbled on it.

of course, the dead giveaway is that jabba was never in that footage until he was digitally inserted for the special edition.

i hope a "cell dealer" buys this!

Jabba was in the scene, but he was originally not a big slug, but a human in a shabby jacket.

Has the original "Jabba and Solo" cut scenes ever been shown (e.g., in a "making of" documentary?), before they digitally added the more familiar Jabba in the Special Edition?

Tonight I have just seen somebody selling carbons in lots of 5! They say they have lots more to sell!! Five carbons won't last very long and they probably won't survive a trip with the Royal Mail. If you want to stock up for your arcs they are on the UK site- www.ebay.co.uk They are DVD Film & TV > Other Formats > Celluloid > 35mm and the item number is 3380840887. Sorry but my elderly iMac won't let me cut and paste! I'm sure you guys are great typists!

StarWars.com: original Jabba scene
I have also seen the actual moving picture footage, though I can`t remember exactly where. I think it was on a Star Wars compendium CD which was included as a bonus in one of the PC games.

quote:
An actor, Declan Mulholland, stood in for the Jabba creature. George intended to replace the actor optically with a puppet or stop-motion creature, but he ran out of time and money and dropped the shot altogether.
(from michael's link)

so jabba was not in the shot, just his "stand-in".

(how would you like that on your resume: "stand-in for jabba the hutt"?)

Re carbons for sale on Ebay.

3/4" diameter! I think not. Even uncoated carbons are seldom that size. I think the positives for the old wartime searchlights are close to it. 10" long for 75 Amps sound like negatives.

Interestingly, the winning bidder was someone calling himself Magnarc1, but, looking at his feedback for a few of the other items he has bought, it was mainly computer stuff, not film related.
