Is it worth it? I want the $40 SI and Hyperspace membership. Like, real bad.

I had a membership for a year, which expired a few months ago... It was nice while it lasted, but I really don't feel I'm missing out on anything now that I've let it lapse... as others have said, we're close to the movie now & most everything that comes out on hyperspace ends up elsewhere... save that $$$ for extra tix to ROTS!

Nah, me mam has already bought me an iPod mini--I know, I've looked ;) and she said that'd be all I was getting.

I think I'll pass. I wanted to see the trailer extra large and just some random stuff but I was mostly intrigued by the webdocs, which are fascinating but I guess I'll just wait for the ROTS DVD to come out.


Thanks guys.

Besides, as it has already been stated, the movie isn't that far away. Save your money. Use what you would have spent on Hyperspace, and buy tickets for yourself and a few friends. Always best to watch SW in groups, the more the merrier.



Or Celebration 3 :schoolyou:

If you like the insider, maybe it's worth it. That and fan club priviliges at celebration 3 are why I bought it. I rarely hit HS for spoilers, the set diaries are to fucking long. tl;dr version is what I need.

I've felt pretty entertained with my subscription to Hyperspace.

I thin it comes down to how you spend your time. I have always liked coming home and checking out Hyperspace and getting 5 minutes of entertainment a day. That’s usually what it offers on whole. But with the magazine, and that little bit of entertainment a day, it really becomes a worthwhile service in my opinion. The only issue is the money. I mean, if you take your girl out for dinner, you probably already spent more money then Hyperspace subscription fee, but you get laid at the end. If you don’t have a girlfriend, you might as well get Hypserspace because your life is going no where anyways.

For some people it’s a worthwhile service, and for others it simply isn’t. I don’t recommend it to my casual real life Star Wars fan pals. That being said, if you want a little bit of entertainment each day throughout the year, I would get it. You can get the stuff for free if you work at it, but I think it’s not worth the effort my self.

I’m a fan of the video stuff. So far they have been pretty decent about it. We get the monthly webdocs, we got and hopefully will get again the new Clone Wars episodes in a large format with commentary like we did for the first two rounds of Clone Wars. The “art of Revenge” series has been pretty cool, but you can get that for free after it has been up for a week. The “Before the Helmet” pictures are always cool to get (some weeks are better then others), both come weekly.

If you like comics, you get a daily comic for three different series. The webcam was cool, but those days are long gone. If the TV show ends up starting production, it may come back I guess. They put fiction up pretty often, but I think it sucks on whole. The insider supplement is pretty cool as well, but it sucks that it comes in a smaller size then the fan released scans we used to get.

You get the Pablo thread where he answers questions (about once a month), it’s kind of cool. The Knolvision series is pretty neat, but seeing sets in 3D only has a novelty effect. As most sets tend to be surrounded by blue screen and tend to kind of mesh into one big blue set. They have had cool little features where they put up the making of audio books and old radio commercials and crap like that. There’s a cut scene from Attack of the Clones as well. Reading the old set diaries would probably keep your entertained for a long time.

I might be cool to subscribe now since you will really have almost 2 years of content to read through and watch.
