The fact they didn't use a Graflex in EP1 symbolizes everything thing wrong with that movie: Lucas didn't give a crap.
I suppose, but I think it's accurate.
But if he had said Ep2...
But why? The original movie established there were at least 3 distinct styles of lightsabers. It’s not that hard to believe there would be more. I actually like that lightsaber design seems to slowly degenerate from the old republic on. The old weapons were elegant and elaborate and expressive. Eventually reaching its peak in the high republic. Then in the prequel era, there seem to be many distinct styles of sabers, but only so many, and very few people with really unique sabers. But they still seemed like something carefully designed and precision machined. But following the fall of the republic, everything became very like military surplus slapped together macgyver sabers all the way up to Rey making her quarterstaff into a saber, though she did still seemingly do more engineering than any OT saber had lol.I suppose, but I think it's accurate.
So my buddy teecrooz has corrected me. It’s not joe Johnston in the cave, it’s Randy Johnson assistant camera man
Turn the page, and there is a caption stating Hamill is in the cave…
Who do we believe now lol
Randy Johnson was also the one in Luke’s costume when they burned vader..
Jabbas palace, I’ve seen other photos from this setSorry for digging up your 'old' post, Halliwax , but I would like to add something to this topic.
I think too that teecrooz is right about Randy Johnson being the stand-in for Hamill at the day of the cave shooting. But Hamill DID shoot the scene himself. Don't ask me why he can't remember it, maybe he was a little fuzzy from the christmas drinks when they shot the scene after the christmas party.
But aside that one can see Hamill's face contoure in the shot when the camera moves up while Luke ignites his saber, there is this photograph still that most probably is from the cave scene, if you ask me:

I like logicLogic dictates that Hamill filmed the scene, and that they also later filmed Johnson for an insert/closeup which they didn't get during principal photography.

Dude…you are crossing streams with your franchises….
For this franchise, use “It is The Will of The Force that Hamill filmed the scene…” vs. “Logic dictates…”
