I feel bad for people getting into Star Wars for the first time. A lot of them will be confused about which movie to start with, and even if they do start with the OT, they’ll be stuck watching the Special Editions.

It saddens me. There was this big wave of YouTube videos of people reacting to Star Wars for the first time. They were enjoyable to watch, but every one I found (except 1 lucky gal) watched the Special Editions. I get this sort of second-hand embarrassment seeing someone watch the Jabba scene, Jedi Rocks, or Vader screaming “NO!”. I’ve seen a few people comment on how the effects are a little dated, not realizing that most of the dated effects were added 20 years after the film came out.

3PO’s “Shutting up, sir.” line in ANH, I had never noticed it before my May 4th viewing yesterday.

WTF??? This is the most mind-blowing thing in this whole thread.

I’ve had my own ROTJ edit sitting at like 95% for a few years now. I’ve been putting off finishing it because the last 5% is the most difficult, tedious stuff. And I’m still unsure about many of my changes anyway. So this will be a great thread to bounce around some ideas/flesh them out. Some that I’ve used, and some that I deemed too ambitious for my edit.

Anyway, love the Boba Fett clip RogueLeader, works better than I imagined. And that mockup image is sexy, Nev.

I was curious to see if Boba’s theme would work with the scene so I copied RL’s work to test it out. And I threw in some sound FX just for fun:

Maybe a little too on the nose? IDK, I think it’s pretty cool 😃
There’s a dozen other good Morrison lines to use there, I just picked a couple. I would end up settling on different lines/placement; perhaps my test doesn’t have the right tone. RogueLeader, I’m certain you can perfect that. Could be cut a few different ways depending on the vibe you’re trying to achieve.

I check in on several threads but I’m just not actively posting.
When compared to every other thread, my posts are never lengthy. I prefer posting my thoughts in video form as opposed to taking the time to write it all out. I’ve always struggled with putting words to my thought process anyways.
I just feel kinda funny bumping my thread every time I release another youtube video. As you can tell by my channel, I’ve been releasing more videos…trying to grow the channel.
Is it annoying when I post here? I try to keep it to a minimum…
Well, either way, thanks to everyone who checks in on this thread!
I just felt I needed to address some of these thoughts I’ve had here.
Thanks again!

No, it is absolutely not annoying. I can understand trying to keep posts to a minimum; I rarely post despite obsessively checking this site several times a day. But this is your thread dude! It’s perfectly appropriate to bump it.

Whether it’s a post here, or a video, I can’t get enough content that explores the process of fanediting. I enjoy it all. So do what you’d like!

^ Amazing work! Love what you’re doing here.

Wow, interesting idea there. To be honest, the first time watching I assumed that Zam’s scope was actually Jar Jar’s POV for some reason (idk, maybe this new green Gungan has a bionic eye lol). I think it’s because the “Welcome, Jedi” line comes immediately before the assassination attempt, so my brain sort of connected the two. Giving that part a little more breathing room might help it sell better; maybe extend the shot of Padmé and Typho if possible.

I think seeing Zam might help too, but I understand that’s a hard thing to get working and may cause a different set of issues.

Thanks for sharing your work 👍

I recall some discussion of a tool for generating C-3PO dialogue earlier this year, and realized that there’s one place in this edit where it could really come in handy.

That tool was a text-to-speech voice on TikTok. I just took a look and it’s not available for me anymore. Hoping it’s just me 😧

Thank you for sharing!

I have reported this shop to Etsy and got nowhere. So decided to try reporting to Disney instead.

Some interesting edits of the Cad Bane scene:

Cad Bane VS Cobb Vanth With Cad Bane Theme
(‘The Bounty Hunter is Back’ from The Bad Batch by Kevin Kiner edited into the scene)

https://youtu.be/OEDMz_NtwAw
Cad Bane Scene - 4K (Re-Edited w/ Cad Bane Theme Music) || The Book of Boba Fett 01x06
(Different version with the music and his skin coloured slightly more)

https://youtu.be/F33ILoErl44
Cad Bane Mouth “Fix” with VFX
(Cad’s mouth is lower, which resolves my main issue with his look in live action)

I thought this one was a massive improvement!

Looks pretty good! I think I actually prefer the skin of the original though.

This one looks amazing too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYB0GJ2Lnmw

Thinking way ahead to ROTS, does anyone know if this scene from Goya’s Ghosts was released

Investigated this in case you still were wondering. The scene is about an hour and 29 minutes in. Hal’s take on it is probably a better fit, but maybe there’s something there, IDK.

Pretty off topic but I came across another design inspiration from ANH, apparently one of the droid designs is lifted straight from the cover of a science fiction book as a homage to the illustrator, who worked the concept art for Jodorowsky’s Dune adaptation among other things. To quote the art director from ANH;

“In Star Wars, there’s a robot in the line-up with the sandcrawler when they’re buying R2-D2 and C-3PO… I did do a homage, because I felt I should, to Chris Foss, because he did some very early designs for that and he was always a favorite of mine. So I made one and designed it up out of scrap as if it might have been in a Chris Foss painting, and that was my homage to him, because I always thought he was a genius as an artist.”

Very cool! I’ve always called that thing “the Star Wars droid,” because the yellow lines on it remind me of the Star Wars logo

I’m surprised a lot of people now want Temuera Morrison as Boba Fett now. I know he’s doing a good job in the Disney+ shows and all that, but I still felt like the majority would still want Jason Wingreen.

I still prefer Wingreen for ESB, though I don’t feel as strongly about it as I used to, since I’ve enjoyed Morrison’s performance in the new shows. But it’s not Wingreen in ROTJ, it’s some random dude doing a goofy scream. I’m happy to see that replaced, whether it’s by Morrison or somebody else.

Sweet! Not as goofy as the original, big improvement.
