Star Wars: Attack Of The Clones Blooper Reel



From the excellent official Star Wars Youtube channel we have a barrel of laughs in store for us as we are treated to a blooper reel from Attack of the Clones.

Originally an Easter Egg found on the first DVD edition of Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones, this collection of a bloopers and outtakes shows that even the most powerful Jedi can awkwardly trip and fall. Again. And again.
The video opens with a take from Anakin (Hayden Christensen) and Padmé's (Natalie Portman) discussion to go rescue Obi-Wan on Geonosis, in which the Senator tells the Jedi to "let go of me." Which he'd already done.
Aside from acting miscues, there are also technical errors, including Christensen pulling a lever out of a speeder console and Artoo getting stuck maneuvering off a ship, among others. Then there's the falling, and lots of it.
Portman takes a dive on a blue-screen set during a Naboo sequence; Christensen trips over an unseen object while shooting the final duel with Count Dooku; he trips again while running on the Coruscant street set; Jango Fett slips on a water-soaked floor, vanishing off-screen; and the Chosen One trips, again, running out of Padmé's sleeping quarters. So much for Jedi reflexes.
The compilation ends with producer Rick McCallum thoughtfully answering a question -- until finally admitting he doesn't quite remember what he was asked.

The Famous Indiana Jones Fly In Belloq's Mouth Scene.  Did It Really Happen? I've always wondered if Paul Freeman unintentionally consumed a fly in this scene in  Raiders of the Lost Ark ?  It's the scene where Indiana Jones shouts down to Bellosh...I mean Belloq and threatens to blow up the ark.  Did a fly go in his mouth? I remember watching this scene back in the early eighties and my ten year old mind thought he definitely had a snack while filming.  I recall talking about 'flygate' in my school playground at the time and the general consensus with my friends was that Freeman definitely had a sneaky snack. Paul Freeman talks about the famous 'fly' scene in an interview with TheIndyExperience.com  and settled 'flygate:' This is a bit of a dicey question so don’t get too upset. (Laughs) A movie’s always got bloopers in it, some have a lot, and some only have three or four. And the most remarkable blooper was right before the opening of th

Pinewood Studios To Expand To The Usa

BBC News have reported that Pinewood Studios are to expand to the USA.  This is great news for the famous studio that is rich in movie history. UK film studio Pinewood Shepperton has announced plans to build its first sound stages in the United States. The Pinewood Atlanta complex will be built on 288 acres of land south of Atlanta, Georgia, as a joint venture with a US investment company. Georgia has been among the US states drawing film-making away from Hollywood with tax incentives in recent years. The deal is the latest sign of expansion at Pinewood, the home of the James Bond franchise. Earlier this month it announced a joint venture with a Chinese media group, potentially giving it access to the fast-growing Chinese market. Read the full article here.
