OK, showing my age now... When I was in primary school (like 4, 5 years old) back when the original movies were being released, I remember being told that Darth Vader was really the Green Cross Code man mutated. Of course, then as I got a bit older and people were all "No no, James Earl Jones" and it wasn't until MUCH later, when the internet first became a more widespread thing in the early 90s, that I learned we were right all along, and that it really WAS the Green Cross Code man inside that suit. What a piece of my childhood., now gone. Wonderful tribute... and David Prowse will live on as long as people remember him. I don't think he will be forgetten any time soon.

@BensWorx 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Mate, yeah I don’t think many people realised it was Dave

@JustAnotherBuckyLover 3 жыл бұрын

@@BensWorx It's definitely more well-known now, but no doubt there are still a lot of more casual fans of Star Wars that don't know that... and of course, I'm pretty sure it's only the Brits that really saw the Green Cross Code stuff as well. I probably can't link it without ending up in comment purgatory, but there's a short 10 minute or so long mini-documentary on KZfaq called "The Force's Mouth" from a few years ago. It was initially meant to be a "how-to" on overdubbing and the maker was a friend of David Prowse so asked for his help, but in the end, he added the same kind of post-processing that was done to James Earl Jones' voice for the movies to show how David's voice would have sounded. There was literally nothing wrong with it. Shame there was so much hyperbole about how it was ridiculous to imagine he could have done it for the movies. Sure, letting a full-on accent wouldn't have given the same kind of effect, but it's like nobody has ever heard of dialect coaching. What bothers me personally is the number of negative stereotypes associated with not just accents from the west country, but so many other things that are so often based on perceived intelligence, disability, gender, sexuality, skin colour, ethnicity, income, education, religious affiliation, etc - and all of which are all kinds of wrong. And the jibes about "Darth Farmer" and the endless ridicule he faced was part of this. It's really not okay. Anyway, sorry for the longwinded rant, but I just find it so ridiculous.
