Academy Award winner Marcia Lucas has died. While winning major awards for her work as an editor for Star Wars (alongside a team of editors, including Paul Hirsch and Richard Chew; some of her contributions outside of her work with George Lucas include Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, Taxi Driver, and New York, New York), she mostly disappeared from the public eye following her divorce and essentially retired.

While Marcia dispelled the belief that she singlehandedly saved Star Wars in the edit (and very passionately defended George's craftmanship and ideas, which she felt were undercredited, as well as the work of their team in general), there was a lot of work she specifically did and I thought it would be good to highlight just how much she did and give her credit where it is due. There is a lot that came from her that most don't know about. Most of those examples are from Howard Kazanjian's biography, A Producer's Life, published in 2021.

On having the iconic trench run on the Death Star as her biggest work while working on Star Wars:

On how her input changed the ending of Raiders of the Lost Ark:

On her joining the Return of the Jedi crew, an emphasis in finding the right cut for actors, cutting together footage of Luke in ROTJ after she and George disagreed with the characterization the director had given to Mark Hamill and unable to reshoot footage:

On editing the climactic ending in the Throne Room in ROTJ:

Namazu's names tend to have "gyo" in them as it's the Far Eastern word for "fish". This naming convention is thoguth to have arisen from General Ganen's response to people who dissented about their inclusion in society. He simply stated "They are gyojin. They are fishmen"

Last time I saw something that made go “oh FUCK” like this was seeing Kota Ibushi hit that “moonsault-opponent rolls away-standing moonsault” spot that Andrade likes to use but like twice as fluid. This is better though.

Jim Cornette probably hated every second of this 😂

You will absolutely not be prepared for the logo that flashes at the end of this drone combat video

All the people in the notes saying 'that's too busy'... maybe this post just wasn't aimed at you.

[breelandwalker]

"That's Too Busy." So sorry you were raised on Landlord White with occasional forays into Shades Of Beige and can't handle patterns or saturation in your colors.

[shadow-jack]

Most people raised on Landlord White can’t afford to redo their bathrooms to look like this.

In Texas apparently you have to do this.

In Virginia, you don’t. Texas is its own special brand of fucked up power grids.

Never getting over Charlie Kirk getting shot in the throat right after he uses it to downplay gun violence. Gotta be a top 3 assassination. Up there with Shinzo getting doohickey'd.
