(Yes, I know, that Bossk was also in "The Empire Strikes Back", 1980, but I didn't have a closeup screenshot of him from the movie.)

Advanced Padawan LearnerOh, the left costume was also used:
Well, the indoor stuff was made in London, who knows what fund they had access to.

I am ready for the trials!Those costumes have been discussed a few times before. They are real high altitude flight suits that first appeared in the Ray Harryhausen film "First Men in The Moon", a few years before they turned up on Who.
I'd love to know where their whereabouts today. Haven't spotted photos of the Bossk costume at any of the exhibitions.

It's things like this that make me think we need a 2nd Star Wars Wiki. Wookieepedia is great for in-universe, typically-EU stuff. But a 2nd wiki focused on behind the scenes, technical issues, etc....that's more what OT.com-ers would contribute to.

Han D. SoloOh, yeah, that would be awesome.

Twisted & EvilI'm very much for that! I couldn't care any less about the EU, but I'm very interested in factual behind the scenes info.

I think too much of details from behind-the-scenes may degrade the actual film experience.
Still I must I admit I can't help myself but to explore as much of the behind-the scenes stuff concerning story/screenplay and art design.
Prequel Trilogy was supposed to be a story about a good man turning bad. In reality, it is a story about how a complete jerk (PT Anakin) turned into one of the best characters in film history (OT Vader)

Okay....thoughts on what it should be called? Journal of the Whills comes to mind, but is potentially too obscure, as well as too in-universey (soooorta).
Wiki of the Whills? Again, probably too obscure.

Twisted & EvilI think the title should reflect that this wiki is for real-world behind the scenes info and not for silly EU stories and info.

Once upon a time there was a Star Wars trilogy. Now there is apocrypha.BeyondStarWars
StarWarsHistory
StarExplorer
StarReadouts
StarWarsDataTapes
StarWiki
Ewokopedia
Yodapedia
Windipedia
Jedipedia
...aaaand now it's just getting silly.
I'm thinking either StarWiki or the aforementioned Wiki of the Whills.

Wait for me. I shall be merciful and quick.I like Wiki of the Whills....
Personally if I were starting a Star Wars wiki I'd name it Mistress Mnemos but that doesn't exactly lend itself to a behind the scenes wiki. =P

Ce n'est pas DuracellEnergizerI'd like to see an actual horror film with the title Blue Harvest made someday (preferably by myself).
God doesn't think in terms of black or white - or even shades of gray - but in big, bright, bold hues of blue and orange.

The ROTJ collaborative thread is a wealth of ideas, both on how to edit Return of the Jedi, as well as how to collaborate in an edit. Emanswfan has taken leadership of the project.
Password for all ROTJ-related clips: ROTJ
A very rough edit of how the Battle of Endor could go
A very rough idea of how ROTJ could end
Rough edit based on the final script with some deviation:
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4

It's like it's quite possible that Picasso would have loved to use Photoshop for some of his paintings if it was available back then, but if you take a picture from Picasso and recreate it in Photoshop, it's not going to be the same picture and it can hardly be used to demonstrate Picasso's brush techniques.
