Don’t worry about him, Jackie, I’ll stay. <3
“…the original version of the movie remains essentially unavailable. The movie that premiered 35 years ago today doesn’t exist in a readily accessible way. Even the National Film Registry only has the 1997 version of the film. As director Rian Johnson recently said on his Twitter feed, this isn’t an issue of nerdiness but of basic film preservation - the 1977 movie is a historic artifact of cinema, and should remain available in some form, and should be the movie archived by the NFR. If there’s anything we should be focusing on when it comes to Star Wars, it’s this.”
I love these! Here is the artist who did them: http://mancomb-seepwood.deviantart.com/
<3! I adore nerdy girls.
Holy shit, Internet, I didn’t think you had any breasts left which were still susceptible to gravity. Awesome. :)
Oh my God xD This is brilliant!

NOTE: For best results, please use Firefox or IE9. See below for explanation (I have a good one. Really. XD). Also, in Chrome/Safari, the first frame is blank (haven’t figured out why yet). It’s a long intro. The song kicks in around 30 seconds in, so sit tight.

WHOA WHAT NOW?! IE??!!?!??!: This music thing is mostly an experiment of JavaScript and HTML5 Canvas, so its behavior is browser-dependent. I’ve found that Firefox on Windows/OSX does it best, then Chrome on Windows, then IE9, then Chrome/Safari on OSX. This also means that if your computer is an old derp, performance may not be as good.
You can use Chrome/Safari if you want. It’ll still work. It’s just that the transitions get a little niggly if you do. Chrome on Windows seems to have trouble with the transitions if the interval is too short. Chrome/Safari on OSX seem kinda…slower? I dunno. o__o;; I’m gonna try to iron out the weirdness for the next ones I do.
It’s pretty easy to use the code once it’s set up. If anyone’s interested, I can make a tutorial about how to use the code and you can make your own slideshow comic things.

Anyway, hope you guys liked it. @__@ Usually towards the end of these big things, I start hating myself and I feel like everything I’m working on is a pile of shit. I still feel like that…Ahaha…
WELP.
Cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool.
