I would like to rewatch the original trilogy, only this time with the theatrical versions of the movies. How do I get these versions?

Take the time to read through the thread…

Read the 1st post of the 1st page of this thread - take note of the link that says ‘The Ultimate Introductory Guide’ - please remember… to acquire the Despecialized Editions you must own a copy of Original Trilogy on blu ray or the HD digital download.

OK I’ll buy the Amazon HD copies. Sorry I just joined today so if I can find out how to post a picture of my purchase history on Amazon I’ll do that.

Edit: Nevermind, it looks like the Amazon Video versions are only available in the USA and I live in Canada.

You could buy a used copy of the blu rays from a site like ebay or other online shop - or from a car boot sale, local charity shop, market stall or other store etc, if easier mate.

An essay written by JGL on Luke Skywalker - worth reading. Even though we ultimately disagree, he clarifies some great points already presented in this thread several times, and he does acknowledge that those who didn’t like the movie aren’t entirely wrong on Luke’s characterization or the movie itself.

If already posted, forgive me.

Quality article that - enjoyed reading it - nice one.

Idea: Fixing Luke in <em><strong>THE LAST JEDI</strong></em>
Time

suspiciouscoffee said:

Towards the end of The Last Jedi, Luke was completely ruined. The projection scene was stupid. Why? Because he didn’t project himself with the green saber, which is the best saber!

CHANGE LIST:

  • Make projection-Luke’s saber green.
  • That’s literally the only thing I want to change.

Well played good sir - well played…

Star Wars Despecialized Editions - Custom Bluray Set (Released)

A Bluray burner is $60 on Newegg. That’s pretty cheap nowadays. It’s not an unobtainable thing.

Good point, but why buy a Blu Ray burner just for these discs? Might as well just pay the $60 for the deluxe edition the greedy dude is selling and be done with it.

If you can buy a blu ray burner and learn to to burn discs you have acquired skills and equipment required to also burn many other projects to disc - ie, other Star Wars Fan Edits / Preservations on here - and are also in a position to even to help others out too, if so minded, and able.

Let alone not giving money to a bunch of freeloading money-grabbing leeches 😃

 

Of course, there are other ways other than having to watch films via disc these days - the humble usb drive will play films on many a modern tv set - or through a dvd player with that usb function, or something like a chromecast type device (especially useful for older tv’s), or a media centre set-up of sorts.

Everybody lay off the insults then.

To be honest that what i would hope…, I found out about this edit through internet news and various cast members commenting on it with tear drops again and again.

It is a sad state of affairs… I don’t know that is why i say the 70’s 80’s and 90’s did it right now i do think there has been a loss of direction relating to “real” people which is gone further than before because it is so “fake” in a way and even though older films were still “fake” they just were not as fake as it is now. It’s pretty much completely unrelatable for a normal person to connect in a normal way…

The motivation of this edit is the big question.

You’re right, the motivation of this edit isn’t actually to make it seem more “real” (scare quotes yours). It’s to make it more like the sausage fests of yesteryear.

But when those older blockbusters were made… I don’t recall hordes of women complaining about how the women are portayed. They were perhaps not that bothered. Men were not complaining about how the men were portrayed. Like wise nobody ever used to bring up these political issues when watching a film regarding gender and sexism. Because the people are characters they are not real.

But we now have even less real characters and people screaming about sexism and social issues feminism so on. Is this an American thing? Is this like an American political argument that is raging across social media or something? Agenda driven outcrys aimed at calling for all these different social groups to be represented in Media?
It’s all a bit odd right now… Looking back i can remember politics were not injected by outsiders in to entertainment like this.

I think it is weird.

Yeah… no-one in the UK has ever gone to town for equality or for a better life… it’s not just an American thing, and you know it.

‘I don’t recall hordes of women complaining about how the women are portayed’, ‘people screaming about sexism and social issues feminism so on’, ‘Looking back i can remember politics were not injected by outsiders in to entertainment like this’… maybe you should look up history of groups fighting for equality back then, and to what they were targeting, and how they were organising themselves.

Plus, using terms like that, along with your heroin allusions and insults earlier in the thread… well, I strongly suggest you stop.

(Now To start off with. Here’s Movie News i posted on The Random thoughts Thread)

‘Lord Of The Rings’ And ‘The Hobbit’ Director Peter Jackson is prepping an in-depth 3D documentary on World War I with rare unreleased interviews and newly restored and colorized footage. It will air on BBC One this fall for the WWI 100th anniversary! Watch this video and Peter will tell you all about it! https://youtu.be/vn6HrP_LTu8

Why colorize the footage?

I think the answer is in the trailer mate.

I might have a way to get the OUT released.

I might have the answer as to how to get Disney to listen to our pleas for the unaltered versions. A long time ago my sister created a non-profit called Randomkid, thing is I can use it to petition and get a word in with the Disney higher ups because this non-profit has friends in high places. If anyone would want to prepare a script or any other requests I should bring up please do tell me.

Mate, this isn’t Reddit - please try and ensure the thread title gives a decent overview as to it’s content.

Random Opinions on appearances:
I liked that Hux looked more sallow and haunted.
I liked how Leia looked more regal.
I liked how Snoke was a sassy jerk.
I liked how C-3PO and R2-D2 looked a lot more realistic somehow.
I liked Holdo’s…everything.

Oh, I agree with this. Very much.

Same here - the scenes with the OT characters were pretty much spot on for me, and the new ST characters evolved - though I do wish to have seen more of Rey & Luke on Ahch-To - which we seemingly may do via the deleted/cut scenes.

The scene with Luke and Leia together was touching (a lot of dust in the cinema that day 😉) yet also found the Luke and R2 scene also emotive (damn these dusty cinemas!) - beautifully played and acted, even by R2…

Very much looking forward to Episode IX…

I think it was shabby that they cut out Rey’s third lesson. It’s just so sloppy to set it up and then let it drop.

Hopefully something our Fan Edit geniuses can rectify from any coming extra content - without those pesky timecodes that were on the TFA deleted scenes - going by the deleted clip what was shown on the Star Wars Show yesterday 😃
