^^ Same here. I recall it was mentioned that ROTJR will be altered more than ANHR & ESBR. So I'm VERY curious about Ady's plans for the Jabba sequence and cannot wait for the eventual thread where we can all discuss it and offer ideas.
Please Please PLEASE let something be done about the Ewoks!! Suspension of disbelief can only go so far, and teddy bears defeating professional soldiers in armor always kicked me right out of the movie.
Hopefully we'll get a sneak peek at the hanger shots as they come together... Can't wait to see what's changed.
Not that I expect Ady to manage anything on this level, but I always thought it'd be more elegant if the entire forest was fighting the Empire having been disturbed by the battle eg. Stormtroopers chase Ewoks into a clearing, who disappear into the bushes, then a giant plant monster grabs and eats the Stormtroopers. You could even use CG to have monsters/living vines pulling DOWN the AT-ST instead of the daft tripping on logs bit that happens in the original.
The forest, apart from the noises, always did seem a bit devoid of life.Basically, the ending from Avatar, Ewok Edition.
I'd be happy with just some Rebel troops added into the battle, with the Ewoks downplayed, and add in some of the deleted footage of Han Solo's team fighting their way into the base to set the explosives.
Back on topic: Has Ady or anyone else put together a blu ray cover yet? I'm pumped to get it ready for ESB:R's release!
In my defence, I'd given this some thought long before Avatar ever showed up (happy days on the TheForce.net just after the release of TPM), but I'd swear I'd got the idea from an early concept for ROTJ. I could be way off base and imagined that last bit, though. I think it seems a pretty natural fit: The Ewoks are diminutive and primitive. Their only advantage is numbers, so unless we're going to get swarms of them World War Z style, I think having their knowledge of the forest play a part makes sense. I'm not talking about Avatar's autoimmune system-like eco-system, more the Ewoks leading the Imperials into dangerous situations with local fauna and flora.
