Well, this isn't exactly a thread which is designed to talk about Lucas' further changes to the star wars saga. There are places on theforce.net forums for this specifically. This thread is based on an ongoing project of altering the PREQUEL trilogy into a cohesive partner to the ORIGINAL UNTOUCHED trilogy. The only gigantic exception being made is that ROTJ will be re-designed (similarly to our prequel edits) to mimic the spirit of A New Hope and The Empire Strikes back. If you read the other pages on this thread and feel like you have some ideas to contribute to that, that by all means please share.........but there are other forums for talks of more CGI, replacing actors, fixing this and that for the Original trilogy. That is going with the view of "Making the originals look like the prequels".............we are trying to make the prequels look more like the originals. After all it is "original trilogy" dot com.

And I might add that CC and I have discussed various ways of altering ANH and ESB in "slight" ways to feature plot points which were dodged when looking at the 6 movies all together. For instance there are ways to add the emperor into ANH through use of dialog tracks delted from Ep.1 and photo imaging. And as discussed earlier, there might be an alternate beginning to ESB to feature the Death Star II into the story sooner. Considering that luke will be on dagobah at the beginning of ROTJ (insuated training from between the 2 movies) then we might add the line "i've got a promise to keep, for an old friend" at the end of ESB as the camera shows Lukes back to the camera and the iris out of the group looking out into space. And we are trying to find people to help on rotoscoping the sabers for all the edits for a number of reasons........plus Grevious/Maul may need a different color line up than green/blue mixtures....coming from a doublebladed red saber.
