will you make after this Empire " the Lando cut "?
there many lando shots out there,specially in the trailers.
short but many…

I haven’t seen many, but if there is enough significant scenes with Lando, I could yeah

no?
in the trailers are 4 scenes and in the bluray 1…

hmmmm…i thought there are more…😕

i´m working on a extended cut and i will ask if i can use parts from your biggs scenes in my version?
thanks

The only Lando scene I’ve seen is the Lobot getting captured one, but the deleted scenes database lists these

Lando three shots Old trailer (00:05) ***
First, you’ll see him coming up the top hatch of the Millennium Falcon looking around for Luke, then it cuts to him running towards a door and presumably trying to unlock it. Neither of these was in the original release, however for the Special Edition they added some new footage of Lando’s ascent/descent in the top hatch of the Falcon to make it look and work better.

walking to landing platform to meet han and after chewbacca choke him. sadly very short 11 frames

Once I’ve got it rendered and uploaded, you’re free to use it however you wish.

many thanks

Version 1 of the edit has now been uploaded. Previews are now available for, well previewing. I’d like to send it to maybe 3-ish people so that it can be assessed for any technical issues or general feed back, so if you would like do that, PM me.

I’m interested in this but am also curious as to whether this is the altered or unaltered version being used?

Btw, I’m working on a frame-by-frame restoration of the conversation between Luke and Biggs at the Tosche Station. That’s it though. I’m not doing the other scenes. One scene is already enough to keep me occupied a few years, and I think the other scenes were deleted for good reasons. In fact, I only think this one should be added to contextualize the reunion scene on Yavin IV added in the SE.

Does anyone have a link to a download of this? Please PM me if you don’t mind sharing. I’ve tried getting in touch with the editor, but I’ve had no luck. Thanks

It sounds like he was just sharing it with a few friends to get feedback. Did they tell him it sucked and he quit? Hope not!

I’m very pleased with the results so far. How has it been going? I always wanted to have a cut of the movie with these old school deleted scenes put back in where they originally would have belonged, even if they’re not super clean.

Now then, who has a complete version of the Declan Mulholland Jabba scene to go with it? Every version of it I’ve seen has those tv station borders/logos burned in…

Seriously though, Grindhouse Star Wars was magic for me, because of the sheer number of deleted scenes that were packed in there, but obviously it was turned into a different story entirely. So a project like this still has serious value. Hope it isn’t dead!

After recently reading The Art of Star Wars script book, my memories of watching Star Wars in Winnipeg for the first time are confirmed that at least the Biggs scene at Yavin base was exactly what I watched and never saw again in the subsequent re-releases!

I would be interested in seeing this version, too!
Thanks!

I know this is an old thread, but has anyone considered using what Harmy used for his Despecialized Editions of the OT to restore the missing footage? I’ve just been re-watching a twenty-minute documentary on the history of, and sources for, the DEs, and it is nothing short of extraordinary!
