This is a new find! My friend has not be holding out at all. The guy who he got it off obviously didn't realise what he had.
There are of course some drawbacks. It's 4:3 and there are some graphics/credits covering part of the frame, but the important thing is that we have the complete scene with clean audio.

To think about all of the Treasures/Gems that are out there (and are not even realized as being such) .... man!
so JD, I guess it all depends on how that specific sequence is presented within 'SWB'

Absolutely! The 4:3 sections and graphic-covered area can hopefully be composited with SE footage to make the whole thing graphic-less and widescreen, like ocpmovie did with his edit originally.This is a new find!

Jambe: Do you have the footage now? What does Declan actually say and when was this thing broadcast?
- Time
- Post link
I have spent about 5 hours trying to do the best I can with what I've got and it's not too bad. I need to colour correct the whole scene now which is no mean feat given that the sequence comes from about 10 different sources!
I haven't looked at the 97 release yet to see if that offers up some more of the original shot. My initial thought is that the 97 Jabba may cover less of the background than the 04 Jabba does. In actual fact I don't have the 97 release of ANH anywhere.
As for what Declan says - watch this space...

What program did the final missing pieces come from?
I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.
Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

Holy crap! That's awesome!!! This is probably one of the biggest OT breakthroughs in years. Now, hopefully you won't spend 30 hours fixing this thing for GL to release all the OT deleted scenes.
What was the source material for this? I thought all sources indicated that the scene had never been fully broadcast.

Someone needs to get you a copy of the high-quality TB digital broadcasts! I don't have them myself, or I'd offer to help you out.I haven't looked at the 97 release yet to see if that offers up some more of the original shot.

Looking great, though. It's amazing what a patch-together it's been to get this whole thing in one piece. It's almost like they only let out little separate chunks in very obscure places just to make it difficult. You gotta admit, though, it makes it really rewarding to finally get those last bits... like finally dropping the last couple of pieces into a huge jigsaw puzzle you've been working on for years.

The missing bits come from Entertainment tonight as shown on the Paramount Comedy channel show in 1997. They ran pretty much the entire scene under the closing credits. Amazing to think that this is the only place the whole scene has been shown.
I am not sure where Scott got it from but he deserves BIG praise for unearthing it.

Great detective work! How did you find out that the clip aired on that show?
And assuming that the Paramount Comedy channel show is owned by Paramount, how did they get access to this footage?

Well, the rest of the show is on the DVD that Scott sent me!

So I was looking over some of the notes I was sharing with OCP when he was cobbling together Deleted Magic and I found some observations and other items that never made it in to DM or things that proved to be inaccurate. So... based on the revised 4th draft the script:
FADE IN...
A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away
an incredible adventure took place...
FADE OUT...
FADE IN
1. EXT. SPACE
A vast sea of stars serves as the backdrop for the MAIN TITLE. War drums echo through the heavens, as a ROLLUP slowly crawls into infinity...
It is a period of civil wars in the galaxy. A brave alliance of underground freedom fighters has challenged the tyranny and oppression of the awesome GALACTIC EMPIRE....
We've already discussed this. The crawl DM has is cool (his is from the 3rd draft) but it too weird for my tastes. I'm glad to see this closer to the rough cut.
2. INT. REBEL SPACEFIGHTER - MAIN PASSAGEWAY
...An explosion hits near the robots and the lanky Threepio becomes entangled in the mass of dangling wires, which spark and pop every time he attempts to move. Artoo waddles to his friends aid.
THREEPIO
Help me! I think something is melting... This is all your fault! I should have known better than to trust the logic of a half-sized thermocapsulary dehousing assister...
Artoo counters with an angry rebuttal as the battle rages around the two hapless robots.
One of the things that I tried to get OCP to emphasise is the likelyhood of the droids walking through the lasers in the corridor was filmed as an unscripted gag, which the rough cut was notorious for having. Much akin to Chewie scaring the mouse droid or the cut moment where Luke, Leia, Han and Chewie stroll past Imperial Officers while whistling and hiding their guns behind their backs. (is it any wonder that a majority of the British filming crew thought the film was 'complete rubbish'?
I'm sure you will note that the "I think I am melting" scene was moved to much later on in the film. In the shot with Artoo laughing at Threepio, I'm not sure where Artoo is or where this footage was taken as the background doesn't really resemble the control room in the Death Star or anywhere else (that I can tell).
8 EXT. ANCHORHEAD SETTLEMENT - POWER STATION - DAY
Heat waves radiate from the dozen or so bleached white buildings. Luke pilots his landspeeder through the dusty empty street of the tiny settlement. An old WOMAN runs to get out of the way of the speeding vehicle, shaking her fist at Luke as he flies past.
WOMAN
I've told you kids to slow down!
I'd love to see more on this scene, although I'm not sure how much more can be done aside from showing the daily from the Insider magazine.
19 INT. SANDCRAWLER - HOLD AREA
It is dim inside the hold area of the Sandcrawler. Artoo switches on a small floodlight on his forehead and stumbles around the scrap heap. The narrow beam swings across rusty metal rocket parts and an array of grotesquely twisted and maimed astro-robots. He lets out a pathetic electronic whimper and stumbles off toward what appears to be a door at the end of the chamber.
20 INT. SANDCRAWLER - PRISON AREA
Artoo enters a wide room with a four-foot ceiling. In the middle of the scrap heap sit a dozen or so robots of various shapes and sizes. Some are engaged in electronic conversation, while others simply mill about. A voice of recognition calls out from the gloom.
While scene 19 was omitted from the revised 4th that is going around the net, the published version of the script has this curious mention of a second room. Thoughts?
28. INT. LARS HOMESTEAD - KITCHEN - LATE AFTERNOON
Luke's Aunt Beru, a warm motherly woman, fills a pitcher with blue milk from a refrigerated container in the well used kitchen. She puts the pitcher on a tray with some bowls of food and starts for the dining area.
Blue milk! What could be more exciting that watching Aunt Beru serve some supper!
29. EXT. TATOOINE - LARS HOMESTEAD - ENTRY AREA - SALT FLAT
The giant twin suns of Tatooine slowly disappear behind a distant dune range. Luke stands watching them for a few moments, then reluctantly enters the domed entrance to the homestead.
The Editdroid bonus discs have this with the alternate score as well as the dianoga scene. But you are already on this, I’m sure.
A50. EXT. TATOOINE - MOS EISLEY - STREET - ALLEYWAY - USED SPEEDER LOT
BEN
If the ship's as fast as he's boasting, we ought to do well.
The curious thing about this line is that it was replaced with an alternate take in the DVD release of 2004.
1977: “If the ship's as fast as he's boasting…”
2004: “If the ship's as fast as his boasting…”
This last take adds a bit of wit that was missing before. I tried to put notice of this change on wiki, put some know-it-all kept taking it down.
116. INT. DEATH STAR - HALLWAY LEADING TO MAIN FORWARD BAY
VADER
Your powers are weak... old man, you should never have come back.
I’d love to see this dialogue reconstructed.
The information of Jack Klaff as Red 4 in the briefing room as reported in DM is now believed to be wrong.
That’s it for now.
