Harmy, have you gotten to the destruction of Alderaan yet?

I'm not sure if you know, but the original bluescreen footage of the explosion appears in the Empire of Dreams.

Yeah, I already went through the EoD and found nothing I could use, most of the footage either sucks even worse than the GOUT or is incomplete :-(

Also, I posted a destruction of Alderaan video ages ago, you can see it here :-)

No, no-one yet. That would be f*cking awesome if you could do that :-)

Yeah, I wouldn't do that. Can you please remove that comment? I don't want any trouble and trying to tell people not to buy the Blu-Rays and download my version instead on AMAZON is definitely asking for trouble.

Thanks, I hope you understand :-)

The reconstruction of the Falcon in the Death Star hangar is awesome! (I couldn't see it at the time of my last post.) Much better than your first try. Are you able to compensate for the slight camera wobble in that shot?

Also, have you made any further tweaks to the shot of the Falcon flying under Yavin? That's always been one of my favorite shots - I remember being blown away by it as a kid in the theater. I noticed some white "sparklies" on the planet - I don't know if it's possible to do some kind of dirt-removal processing on that.

Thanks!

I posted a video with several shots somewhere like two or three pages back and that shot was a part of it and I'm afraid I can't do much more about it.

Harmy, you doing a great job on these shots.  Are you doing the shadows under the landspeeder? 

What about the sky  Sky behind 3p0 when he says "I am not going that way."?

  Thanks for all your hard work.

George's vision has turned so many regular people on here into some of the most talented people. The tenacity that pours through this site is amazing.

I did see that video. I understand you're pretty much limited to the GOUT for that shot, since it's a moving image. Thanks.

Yes and yes :-)

@Eric:

It's not just the GOUT mind you, just get out your GOUT DVD and compare the shots!!!

Here are a few comparison pics, left is the GOUT right is Despecialized :-)

Click for bigness :-)

No, all my projects (with the exception of the ROTJ PAL DVD) are 23.976fps, so there is no PAL speedup.

New video. I was originally just going to use DJ's Blu (GOUT sourced) for these two shots but I didn't like the blinking starfield, which was worsened by the increased contrast, so I decided to try and quickly do something about it... and well, I ended up staying up all night working on it, but I think it was worth it. Please check it out and comment :-)

You are amazing Harmy.  This will be the version of Star Wars people remember.
