Sure you'll know, I'll tell you. According to him at the time, he was pulled aside during a convention and a couple of Lucasfilm employees who had taken a copy of the film without authorization, took him to their room and showed him a rough cut of the film. He would not identify the employees, but some time after that Lucasfilm fired and prosecuted the two men when the missing film copy was traced to them.

I have never liked this site, it is ugly and a pain in the butt. They post everything anyone sends to them without checking for validation, and puts harry's own theories in as spoilers.. uuggg.. Only time i ever go there is when directed by someone i turst, either to check out a valid story, or to laugh have at what they have put up.

^amen. It's a horrible site although a lot of people seem to get a lot of entertainment spoiler news from it. Personally I don't think it's worth visiting but then I'm impatient with poorly designed sites.

The site might have good information, but the design is bad. So I can't find anything on there.

This was actually one of the first sites I came across on the net because I was looking for movie info. It was also the first forum I ever posted on. I'm not fond of it now, but I have to say that I've always admired Harry for turning his passion for movies into a website leading to him being paid for it.

Totally - been going there since before the special editions came out.
Harry is a unique guy - you gotta love him.
All of him.
And that's a lot of love, baby.
I wanna be in his movie.

I love Harry's site and it is the first site I go onto everyday for movie news and what not. He is a cool guy. Weird, but cool!

Yeah I agree, different, but cool, though I don't check the site out quite so often, and the site itself isn't very nice to look at...

speaking of Harry...
my local newspaper, the Province today did an article about the geek revolution in the entertainment industry. They called Harry the former Texas Outlaw *lol* and mentioned that he recently signed with Revolution Studios. Interesting..

Well, I do like the Jedicouncil discussion thing they got going now...it's a pretty interesting read for those that don't check the site often.

^ Man, T you're right That's a Whole Lotta Love there...
I love AICN, second call on the internet after GS... Never bother with the Talk Backin' though... Harry is just the Uber Geek, and therefore p****** a lot of people of, because his views are from the gut and the balls and not the brain sometimes.
Can anyone tell me why there are two JC transcripts missing from their archives, and did anyone save them? They're the ones where somebody really laid into Natalie Portman for her attitude on set... Like they'd know. But there were some interesting tidbits about her and the plaided one.

Nah - no offense to the crew that does em, but I just can't read those things. Moriarty and Carl have always done right by me and are good cats - even though Moriarty won't promote my film on AICN, the *****. I just can't get through those chat sessions.

^ I love 'em, it sounds like me and my friends at work... But with 1/2 a brain cell to rub together and decent careers... style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blush.gif
It's just unreal though, how much AICN (I'm sure there were pre-cursors to it, but I don't personally know them) has changed the relationship between net fans and movie makers... It's kinda exposed the fact that most film-makers are just geeks at heart too.
The talkback is just random and rude - idiots locking horns in the main.
If anyone has the JC stuff saved, PM me, Puhlease.

I visit regularly just to get the news - the boards seem clogged up and unfriendly. The site itslef isn't great, but I'm a news junkie!
