Does anyone think that Vader's entrance in the Hoth battle is weak?  He comes out of nowhere.

Yes, we should totally add some CG shots of an Imperial Shuttle landing.
It could bump a stormtrooper on the head when it lands, that would be funny! ESB could use some more jokes.

Ghost said:

Why isn't there going to be a ground battle on Hoth?  I know that it would take alot of time to do, but it would make sense if there was one added.  Mabey if Lucas does an edit, this will be added.

Yeah, it's called Star WARS, not Star PLOT! What's with all the talking anyway?

Ghost said:

I think some PT music should be added.  Nothing noticible, but just background music.  The PT's music is much more epic than hearing the same old Imperial March every scene.

Yeah, the OT soundtracks are horrible, good thing they didn't reuse the same music over and over again in the prequels!

Ghost said:

Mix in a sad version of force theme from the PT when the Empire its close to winning.

At least add some epic music to the Vader/Luke scene.

Totally, it feels too much like a personal battle right now, it needs to feel LEGENDARY

I swear I'm not doing this just to be contrary but if Geonosis is to be less orange perhaps Kamino should be a bit more :

Essentially both locations are doing the same thing (building an army for Palpatine/Sidious) overlapping the two would underline that.

Kamino sunrise

 

I can't stop looking at this, did you paint it?

Do you have it in a higher resolution?

In any case, I'm a supporter of every edit that gives the AOTC planets more than one colour.

 

EDIT

silly me, I should've just looked at the image url ^^

What I meant is that sometimes, in my opinion, you boost the contrast too much, which makes some of the shots look a little unnatural because we're seeing way too much. Your adjustments make every little detail visible, and that makes the shots kind of "flat". All the subtleties are gone, and every little detail is there, screaming for our attention.

An example: the shot of Amidala's ship landing on Coruscant in AOTC. The platform is very "busy" now with every little thing we see on it. I like that the original shot was a little more "quiet".

I don't mean to rag on your and others' color adjustment work, but I think there is a little too much of a "Let's make it more dark and faded and it'll look like the OT!"-mentality going on here. 

I agree

Hey Ady,

How about you do something similar to Luke's hand. Come on it looks like crap LOL.

 

Sorry, but the one on the left looks a lot more realistic to me.

You changed the colour from something that looks like real skin to something that looks like it belongs to a corpse...

And why would the inside of Luke's arm need bright blue LEDs and glowing tubes?!

Um....eyes can move left to right without the head moving.  We are seeing Han from the back when he says "Yeah, that'll do nicely."  Maybe he's glancing at the cave with his peripheral vision but needs to stay focused on working some control on the console.

You fixed the timing of the lines, that's enough.  Don't over-think the rest of it.

Oh come on. You're not telling me you only move your eyes while you're driving?

You don't say "that'll do nicely" without having a good look at it. Han turns his head towards the cave by the end of the scene, if one could edit that to happen sooner, it could work.

I like that. C-3PO's shortened line sounds so much more pitiful than the original, that it's almost an improvement.

 

I agree, even though that wasn't my intention at all. I just wanted Han's line to be spoken a second or two later, AFTER the cave appears onscreen, and I could either have had Han's and C-3PO's lines partially overlap, which I didn't want to do, or remove 3PO's line entirely, which I also didn't want to do. So I went halfway with the options. Leia's line is also delayed slightly, to keep the scene from having too big of a dialogue gap altogether.

I'm not a big fan of the shortened line. One problem remains though: Han still doesn't actually _look_ at the cave.

Google the question and get back on topic.

--

There's only two things that always bothered me in ESB. One has already been fixed in the trailer (The Falcon not retracting its landing gear on Bespin), the second is Han pointing at the cave he can't see.

Considering Adywan is rebuilding parts of the asteroid for continuity, I'm fairly sure he'll look at this as well.

Ive just thought what about if instead on saying luke skywalker in the epilogue, why cant we say he had been known as the starkiller since he indeed destroyed the death star. This is a wink to the old story and make an alias for luke and thus vader tryin to find out who the starkiller is, on top of that the emporer finds out the real name and making the whole hologram scene in the asteriod field. Anybody thinks this is a good idea?

no

Revenge is personal.

All we ever heard in the films is that the Jedi and Sith don't like each other. Is simply killing each other revenge? Revenge for what?

I don't buy "self defense" either, he could've used force pushes or mindtricks. No need to choke people. Luke isn't bound by the same dogmatic rules as the old Jedi anymore, he kind of just does what makes sense to him.

 

We know the Sith had the Jedi killed, taking revenge for that makes sense.

It is never mentioned in the films why the Sith disappeared, so why would it be revenge?

 

Anyway, we had this discussion before, les goûts et les couleurs...

I'm not sure I would have bothered watching The Bangs Of The Sith.

:P

We had a big "should it have been Revenge of the Jedi & Return of the Sith?" discussion a while back (I think it was the ESB/ROTJ wishlist thread).

Personally, if Luke can forcechoke guards and slice anyone who gets in his way with his lightsaber, I don't see why he wouldn't be able to take revenge. Anakin (no longer Vader) sure takes revenge on Palpatine.

There wasn't any revenging going on in episode 3 anyway. The Sith just returned "with a bang".

Many here thought the title change was to drastic though, so we just left it there.
