Star Wars screening home video: light saber fork action

Boing Boing pal (and esteemed CG FX guru) Jeff Kleiser shot some fantastically crap-o digital home video at George Lucas‘ ranch, after the first screening of Episode III for 40 of Mr. Lucas’ friends. Kleiser was seated at a dinner table with John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton of Pixar, among others. We can’t share the entire video (or guest list), but we do have permission to share a little snippet that shows these dudes playing light saber with forks at the table.

As for that other movie, (cough, cough) Kleiser says: “The new film is killer…unbelievably rich and stunningly beautiful matte paintings. The segue into Episode IV is well done and it should be a huge success.”
