The text is just within the safe area for 16:9 viewing.

Boon, good news on the NTSC version. Do you have the links to the rapidshare files?

I have watched this and it is definately worth any effort so everyone can watch it. Great work, jambe.
This is already up on rapidshare? I don't know about that. I downloaded the torrent. I was going to upload it to rapidshare the next days, but if someone else did it alredy that would be great.

Just watched it, and the bug fix works fine for me. Any recommendations on shrinking apps for OSX?

Spotted a couple of typos in the captions, but nothing to yell about. I think the only bits of trivia that could be added would be to identify the recycled Ep IV footage in the space battle and Death Star interiors.

I did think about mentioning the recycled footage but thought it kinda obvious and couldn't find any official confirmation on it. I tried to get the less obvious stuff in most cases. Thanks for your suggestion though.

There are always going to be bits that people think are worth improving (grateful if you could email me with the typos though - I only know of one). I would be just as grateful if you could let me know what you DO like too.

"Just watched it..." is my favourite review so far

Boon, I don't think anyone has uploaded it to Rapidshare yet. I think there was some confusion above.

Then I will upload the DL version to RS tomorrow (should be up tuesday). Until then the NTSC SL should also be finished. It will be as hq as I am able to do it.

Jees. Can people, just for today, stop analyzing with a microscope every little nitpick thay can spot. Its turning into see if i can find whats wrong, rather than give the praise thread. I can almost hear Jambe hitting his head on the wall with every few posts. Its been a real taxing day as it is trying to sort the chapter issue out for all concerned, so please, direct your energy more where its really needed at this time, its not like you've blown £16 at HMV to watch this

Whoa, page 1 has turned into a giant montage for RTJ!

As far as I see it, and I am still learning, these replacement files should be used when you are burning a copy to DVD. If you copy them to the location from which you are seeding it may mess things up for people still downloading the torrent.

DarthSolo is going to add a link to the FIX files so that people can download it once that have completed the torrent download. Lets face it, it's still watchable without the fix. At least people now have the chance to fix it if they want to.

So to clarify: Only use the fix files when you have finished seeding, or just made a copy of the whole DVD and fix that one. That way you can continue to seed and get a fixed version for yourself.

I just want to thank everyone for their praise, input and creativity. Take a look at page one of this thread to see what I mean.

Good night and good luck.
JD


I just smacked myself in the head for that one! Add the fix files when burning to DVD. My brain is not awake yet.

There's good in the Original Trilogy, and it's worth fighting for.

Jambe - just watched RTJ tonight, and thought it was a great watch - certainly the most interesting thing that has been through my dvd player in quite a while!

I won't go into the details as not to spoil or overhype anything (and it's late & I'm tired ), but...

Interesting, informative & very well presented - at times I forgot that this was the work of a talented fan - as it was more like something Lucasfilm themselves had come up with.

Like the Building Empire documentary before it, RTJ gives a true insight into the sheer dedication, hardwork and fun the crew put into making the film, as well as how films of this magnitude are put together. Am sure they'll be a fair few things in your doc that will surprise even the most ardent of Star Wars fans too.

Kudos to you for getting so much material from all sorts of sources - AND kept thing interesting and moving along nicely throughout the entire documentary.


Top job mate - I can only imagine how painstaking this project must have been just to put together - let alone getting it to the high standard that you acheived - well done


ps - really liked the end credits and after too



(big thanks also to meedermow for getting me a copy SO quickly - much appreciated mate )

Just done another shrink with the fixed IFOs and it works perfectly, great work!

I'll send the fixed version to those who have requested a SL copy (anyone else...?)

Okay, here's the Big Positive Post:

A worthy successor to Building Empire in every way. If there's another millisecond of Slave Bikini B-Roll out there I defy anyone to find it without taking an all-access tour of the Skywalker archives. That Super-8 footage... holy crap. What do you bet Sansweet tries to figure out who shot that?

Love the FX breakdowns, especially the match-move on the Imperial Reception painting-- that can't have been easy.

Skiff flyby audio, matched to the guy driving an ATC. Cute.

Caught Luke's blue trailersaber in the deck fight, but I never saw that video clip of the hero prop before-- what's that from?

My favorite bits are the details that were right under my nose-- has that Hell's Angel stormtrooper really been there all along? Crazy.

"Teddy Bears' Picnic": More proof that Harrison Ford was just trying to get fired, always a plus.

Excellent work and many thanks for your efforts.

The fix worked like a charm and I've now watched it from beginning to end. Now I just need ink for my printer so I can print up the spanning covers.

I haven't watched it yet (I'm at 59%), but I had the idea of maybe adding the movie for RotJ and ESB script to their respective dvd's as extras, thought I'd throw it out there.

Anyhow, I'm greatly looking forward to seeing this when done, which will hopefully be tomorrow. Thanks for all your work on this, JD

Hell's Angel Stormtrooper???

As for the lightsaber prop footage. That was shot specifically for 'Returning to Jedi'. Surprised?

Thanks again to everyone whos taken the time to comment.

Think he's talking about the bearded rebel who dresses in the scout trooper's uniform. Lovely detail, completely unnoticed til now!

The most intriguing aspect of this piece is the very subtle commentary on the Lucas/Marquand relationship. I was surprised to see so much footage of Marquand working fairly autonomously on set, and to hear so many comments from him about his input into the story and events.
Of course, there's plenty that suggests the size of Lucas' role in proceedings, from the effects artists' description of his constant screening of their work, to his own comments on how much he was 'needed' on set. In this context, the gag in the AT-ST cabin is very telling...
