Prowse claims LFL owes him for ROTJ SE

April 3rd, 2009 by Dunc · 4 Comments

David Prowse can sometimes be a bit of a curmudgeon when it comes to Lucasfilm, so I’m not sure if it’s worth taking this report – that he got no money for the Return of the Jedi Special Edition because it didn’t make a profit – entirely seriously. In any case, Lucasfilm disagrees, and says that Prowse’s claim is “not accurate.” (Thanks to Diane – and her father – for the tip!)

    Ah, David. His is such a unique perspective on the world.

    Hm. Does it look like the ROJSE took $88 million to make?

    Sy Snootles insisted on authentic designer duds for each rendering.

    …Or so I’ve heard.

    Even after production and millions in marketing costs, I find it hard to believe that RotJ:SE lost money.
