Yoda Gets a CGI Facelift on Star Wars Blu-rays

comments: 10 || add yours

Because you don?t own Star Wars on enough platforms, Lucasfilm is releasing the complete saga on Blu-ray in September. The massive and anticipated release will feature loads of bells and whistles ? including Original Trilogy deleted scenes! ? plus some new stuff. Like a computer-generated version of Yoda to replace the puppet used in The Phantom Menace . Click through for a comparison.

First off, The Phantom Menace is as bad as you remember, no? Egad! Jake Lloyd much!? That low-hanging fruit grabbed and squashed, let?s give credit where credit is due: Puppet Yoda looks more fake than usual in Menace, surrounded by all the other computer-generated moments; his CG replacement feels somehow more real ? or at least complementary to Lucas?s overwhelming digital aesthetic. As long as the bearded one doesn?t touch OG Yoda, we?re cool.

Star Wars: The Complete Saga hits Blu-ray on Sept. 16.
