Oh man, I haven’t seen that in so many years. Geez how I hate that shot! The SE ruins everything!

It’s close to becoming the SE shot I love to hate. I have to think about what Frink can do to it. 😉
Where were you in '77?
What is going on with the trooper helmet right under the TIE Fighter?
It looks like it’s been cut off, maybe due to aggressive matte work?
You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.
Episode 9 Rewrite, The Starlight Project (Released!) and ANH Technicolor Project (Released!)
And those are ESB helmets (black grilles)
I would put this in my sig if I weren’t so lazy.

Nerd!

How can you tell, at this resolution?

He may have just already known/seen that. I did.

I did know, generally speaking, that Stormtroopers added to SW SE had the wrong helmets. Also true in the desert search scene. And you can tell in this image. Compare the foreground and background troopers. Obviously different.

Hey! 🤓

I will probably be crucified for saying this, but I think the SE shot made the secuence slightly more plausible. Feeling safe being backed up by their comrades-in-arms, the stormtroopers regain their composure and fight back.
Seriously though, I get what they were driving at, but it’s just executed poorly, and much like most of the SE additions, it looks fake against the aesthetics of a 1970’s film.

Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised
That SE shot removing the dead end to the corridor made little sense. You have armed and dangerous interlopers on a massive space station running loose, and all these bucketheads are just standing at attention in a hangar?
I don’t think any of those officers standing on the upper level even react to the shots being fired. None of the troopers seem to be as far back as the officers that are presumably reviewing them, either. In fact, the whole perspective of this shot seems wonky. And that TIE fighter is either floating or resting on some crates, because it surely can’t be gripped from up above by the fragile panels?
the troopers to the far left of the shot look like they are all standing at urinals and got caught mid piss
LOL! Maybe it’s a reference to a hidden area in the old Dark Forces game? 😉

LOL!
Actually though I think the TIE Fighters are suppose to be suspended above the floor and fixed to the catwalk - no landing gear. TFA gets this wrong.
Lazy cloning.
And in the time of greatest despair, there shall come a savior, and he shall be known as the Son of the Suns.
Oh dear. Why bother if you’re not going to try to make it look nice?

And I thought the celebration scene on Cloud City had a lot of clones! 😛

It’s basically AOTC.

Is this based on anything in the movies? If not, then it’s not “wrong.”

Oh it’s an EU thing.
Don’t care.

I confess that I didn’t see the tiny bit of gantry above the TIE in that shot at first.
The only onscreen evidence of how TIE’s are parked pre-SE is in ROTJ.
Jedi Outcast had a Star Destroyer level with a hangar bay full of TIE’s hanging around this way.
I never noticed the TIE hanging from some sort of maintenance gantry in this shot before!

Not to mention there’s nothing to say that the First Order didn’t make changes to the way their TIE fighters docked compared to the Empire’s models.

Logic, the enemy of rage.
