I'm confused...  did adywan change it so that you should all post in here... cause the last I checked, youo're suppose to post in the other thread.

 

And half of what you all posted is already in the list.

This is an attempt to reedit the final scene in The Empire Strikes Back with the final shot being Luke, Leia, 3P0 & R2 looking out the window instead of the ship taking off. This has been done to match the other endings for the Star Wars films. The edits are a little jarring and I know the transition used to begin the credits in played in reverse.

putting it in the other thread increases the chances ady will comment. Ady reads every post, so usually I know wether to add it or not based on his response... I'd try posting it in there again and asking him to look at it and comment

its said that you should suggest in the other thread and then I'll add it here... Your right that I should add that, but do make sure you mention it for review in the other thread.

There are some really great suggestions here and in the other two threads.

The fleet bombarding Hoth after the shield is down and fixing Obi-Wan's Jedi ghost for starters.

I hope they don't fall by the wayside. There are too many posts scattered around in the three threads.

When Luke's X-Wing fighter is leaving Hoth add more ships leaving the planet.  Luke's X-Wing going into hyperspace towards Dagobah and Bespin.

When Vader has his helmet placed on, the back of his head is a bit yellowish. Shouldn't it be pale white like the rest of his face and head?

We hear Luke's lightsaber going off but it's still on when he leaves the Wampa's cave and when he's outside it's now off.  Boba Fett's voice that's up to you. He was Jango Fett's clone and the clone troopers had the same voice anyway. That shouldn't matter.

That's been spotted already, Gemini.

Read the first post on page one of this thread. That's the list compiled by GoodMusician. Any original ideas made will be added to that list by him.

This is to prevent repetition and make it easier for Adywan.

Don't add suggestions here. Put them in this thread.

This thread here is just for consolidation.

  35. MF's landing gear will now retract when escaping

  3. 0:52:16 - When an asteroid hits the command tower on a Star Destroyer, the tower just magically dissolves.  The explosion will be changed (possibly make the asteroid bigger to account for the tower destruction as well as the SDs inability to destroy it with their lasers - maybe even show the SD shooting at it before impact rather that sitting there and "taking it".  Also rather than just adding a different explosion, why not show the asteroid plowing through the SD tower as the tower bends backwards and blows apart around the asteroid?)
  4. add/enhance asteroid field outside of all SD window shots.

  12. The course of the Falcon as it exits the slug should be more dynamic
  13. enhance inside/outside of Space Slug during MF escape
  14. Fix asteroid collisions/explosions in space (they collide, but shouldn't explode unless hit by a laser or there is some sort of hot gas inside them) 
  15. Fix explosions on asteroids on shot where Star Destroyer blasts them with its lasers (such as the asteroid exploding BEFORE the SD laser hits it).
  16. Altered 3 SD collision when MF goes vertical to adjust for bridge view (closest SD to Avenger is now on Avenger's left as opposed to right side).

EXECUTOR (Empire General):

  1. All Star Destroyer engines will be colored blue, as in ANH
  2. Emperor's Hologram (stabilize hologram image and replace SE dialogue with original dialogue)
  3. The Bounty Hunter Scene could use subtle emotes/updated Bounty Hunters/Droids (sketchrob)
  4. See the Fleet enter the Hoth System
  5. Fix "engine flare" overlapping hull issue on Executor when entering Hoth system
  6. 1:13:36 - Remove Needa's blink (after being choked) when Vader's cape swipes past his face.
  7. 1:43:27 - Add windshield to Slave 1.
  8. Open the Film with the Executor or with an expansion of the first shot of the Imperial Fleet (Inclusion of DS2?)
  9. Add camera shake as Stardestroyers shields collide when they "take evasive maneuvers"
  10. Fix Imperial officers rank pins/cylinders
  11. Replace Needa's shuttle with Lambda-Class T-4A a different shuttle
  12. Move Slave 1 ship farther back while following MF/ also enhance ship displays
  13. Add display to Boba Fett's Range finder when it is down
  14. When Stardestroyers Collide (sounds like an album) have explosions (maybe just glimpses in distance and/camera shakes
  15. Shadowing Cruiser under the Executor (flipping with same shot used earlier for 'The First Catch of the Day')
  16. add access way/door/ladder to the bridge pit crew area.

REBEL FLEET ( p6, ):

  1. Adding Ships: A-Wing, B-Wing, Mon Calamari Cruiser?
  2. Hyperspace Jump
  3. Fix Luke getting his mechanical arm FX (bottom half looks too fake)
  4. Altering MF's departure from the rebel fleet (removal/replacement of "galaxy shot" outside window)

Right before Vader's conversation with the Emperor's hologramme/before Vader's flagship went out of the asteroid field for better transmission, there was a Star Destroyer that had one of those big balls destroyed by an asteroid. However the explosion caused looked like a dust explosion or something. What about this?

Don't worry about it my friend, its on the list here:

0:52:16 - When an asteroid hits the command tower on a Star Destroyer, the tower just magically dissolves belong the explosion element

And Adywan has expressed his displeasure with the shot.  By the way, the whole top of the Star Destroyer is blown off, which is why in the next shot there's an officer covering his face as his communication (and his life) ends.

1st post 

 

* * * * * Imp's ongoing collection of screenshots and suggestions for adywan's 'EMPIRE:REVISITED'  * * * * *

 

Having found Adywan's/doubleofive's 'A New Hope Revisited Changes List' information (and accompanying comparison shots of the whole movie!) to be an excellent reference - http://swrevisited.wordpress.com/anhr-change-list/ , I'm hoping that they'll eventually show an equally comprehensive record of all the final changes/enhancements that end up in the eventual 'ESB:Revisited' edit too.

But in the meantime....since there's been so many suggestions submitted for 'ESB:R' at this point now, I wanted to see an 'at-a-glance' compilation of as many of them as possible....along with an indication of any that Adywan has decided to incorporate.  (I also wanted to gather the various preview shots that have been released too)

So as it's been over a year now since this particular thread has been updated in any way, I thought this would be the best place to add a more up-to-date round-up of the various suggestions so far, which can serve as a reminder to myself and others, and help minimise the repetition of ideas previously brought up.

 

To start things off though, here's a sample of some of the incredible colour-correction and changes/enhancements that have already been completed so far -


And here's what the awesome trailers showed - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ie_3YIF9s2s

Extended version - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZliwkutFwV0

 

However, due to some unpredictable 'posting limitation' restrictions on the forum while putting all this together, I'll need to split it across several posts.  So this list continues in my 2nd post....

2nd post

 

The way I'm going to lay this out is to start with a recap of Adywan's already-planned changes/enhancements currently mentioned on page 1 of the main 'ESB:R' thread - http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/STAR-WARS-EP-V-REVISITED-EDITION-ADYWAN-NEW-TRAILER-AVAILABLE-NOW/topic/9060/ , which were last updated on 10th December 2009, and which I'll number 1 to 123 for the purposes of this list.  I'll then follow-up these up with various other suggestions that have previously been brought up in addition to these, which will be numbered 124 onwards.

(Please note - although this checklist may be useful to others too, due to the numerous amount of ideas on the 'ESB:R' thread so far, I'm aware that there's still a lot more I've yet to include..  However, as I'd like to make this as comprehensive as possible, I hope to update it regularly....and will continue to add additional past and future suggestions below the ones posted today, when I can.  I'm going to reserve myself plenty of space for these further suggestions....so anyone who ends up posting here afterwards, won't break up the layout of this ongoing list in any way)

THINGS NOT BEING DONE:

Not adding landing crafts to deploy AT-ATs.

Not making the AT-AT lasers green.

Not making it so the fleet jumps to lightspeed just before the credits.

Not adding Mon Cal ships to the Rebel Fleet at the end.

Not adding music from the prequels or music that wasn't originally in the movie.

Not adding Luke's vision so it can be seen like Anakin's in ROTS.

Not adding anything just because it's in the Expanded Universe.  The EU doesn't exist for the purposes of this edit.

 

Okay, in addition to all of Adywan's confirmed changes/enhancements listed above so far, I'll now make a start on some of the other suggestions for 'ESB:Revisited' that have also been brought up so far, that I wanted a reminder of.  These will be numbered from 124 onwards, and I'll add more below the ones shown here today, when I get the opportunity.

While some suggestions may seem quite trivial things compared to others....everything is worth bringing up I reckon, judging by the amount of subtle enhancements that Adywan has previously been known to include....and although he's already included some of the following ideas at this point, too.... just how many of the rest of these he'll like enough to use, is unknown - 

 

ADVENTURES ON HOTH (additional suggestions)

124.  Give the Hoth planet a slight 'rotation' during it's first appearance, and make the blue 'atmosphere haze' more uniform around it?  Done! video clip here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiZTRUwwQrk&feature=related

125.  Remove SE 'flames' from Probe Droid snow crater as it hovers away from it?  Done! video clip here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiZTRUwwQrk&feature=related

126.  Add a hint of 'casing' debris to the crater's edge in the 'long shot' of the Probe Droid moving away from it, to tie-in with what's seen around the crater's edge when the Probe emerges in the 'close-up' shot?

127.  Add a Rebel 'gun turret' near the Rebel base 'Generators' that the Probe Droid is seen investigating, to tie-in with the image that is eventually seen on the 'Executor's' display screen?

128.  Tweak the 'tiny' Chewbacca that gets fired at by the Probe Droid, so that it matches his position in the 'close-up' a little better?

129.  Erase the 'insignia' badge that is only sometimes seen on the front of Han's 'Hoth' jacket, so that it's consistently gone in all the shots throughout?

130.  Enhance the backgrounds in certain Taun-Taun shots?   Done! example here - http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/2936/trailercomp37.jpg

131.  Is it possible to either add/or erase the yellow ladder that suddenly appears on the X-Wing that Leia stands beside when the Rebel base doors are shut, for consistency's sake?

132.  Make upside-down Luke's legs closer together to match position of where his feet are trapped in ice?  Done! example here - http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/5963/facebook11.png

133.  Tweak the lightsaber buried in snow, so that it's more consistently buried during the scene in the Wampa's cave?  Done! example here - http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/5963/facebook11.png

134.  If the shot showing the foreground SE Wampa's left-side as Luke cuts himself down is being kept, then make it's black 'paw pads' a more fleshy colour to tie-in with other 'paw' shots?

135.  Re-'flip' both the reversed 'Han on Taun-Taun' miniature shot, and the following 'close-up' of Han holding looking around before he dismounts, where the 'macrobinoculars' are now suddenly slung over his left shoulder instead of his right shoulder?  Both existing shots shown here - http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/2690/screenshot15w.png

http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/3098/screenshot19z.png

136.  Not sure if there's any way that this reversed shot of Luke can be re-'flipped', since the next shot (which is the correct way round) has his head facing the same way too, unfortunately!  Existing shot shown here - http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/9232/screenshot21b.png  Is it preferable to remove this incorrect 'panning' shot altogether, and just go directly to the shot where Ben appears in front of Luke (with some audio/soundtrack tweaking if required), for continuity's sake?

137.  If the 'flipped' shot of of the heavily snow-covered Luke stays, is it possible to 'whiten' the back of his jacket somewhat in the next shot where Ben appears, so that it ties-in better?  Both existing shots shown here - http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/9232/screenshot21b.png

http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/404/screenshot20.png

 

THE IMPERIAL FLEET (additional suggestions)

138.  Make the lights along the side of the 'Executor' consistent in all the shots, either by making them all blue, or by re-adding whitish ones on it's prow in the shots where they are absent?

 

THE EMPIRE STRIKES (additional suggestions)

139.  Make some of the other Rebel 'gun turrets' fire during the battle?  Done! examples here - http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/1615/trailercomp25.jpg

http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/9696/trailercomp39.jpg

140.  Add some extra Rebel troops to the AT-AT battle?  Being done! OT.com member Rogue Leader is organising a 'second unit' filming team for footage that will be integrated!

141.  Use the best-looking shot of Vader's viewscreen 'surround' for both of the shots where it shows Admiral Ozzel being choked?

142.  Somehow improve the 'close-up' shot of the 'wobbly' AT-AT 'foot' prop that Wedge's Speeder attaches it's 'tow-cable' to?  Perhaps the background can be altered so that it doesn't seem to be 'dangling' high in mid-air, or perhaps a whole new shot?

143.  Somehow improve the details on the 'close-up' shots of the AT-AT 'underbelly' prop that Luke rappels up to, for better consistency with the miniatures, and add the hint of an 'opposing' 2nd 'leg-joint' too?

 

this list continues in my 7th post....

144.  Slightly extend the shortened Vader helmet that's seen as he enters the Rebel base?  Done! example here - http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/5589/facebook08.png

 

ASTEROIDS (additional suggestions)

145.  Include the additional TIE laserbolts (and sound fx) that were initially previewed in the early 'asteroid chase' video clip?

146.  Remove the large, non-tumbling, round-looking asteroid matte from the shot where the second chasing TIE explodes?

147.  Alter the angle of the shot where the Falcon initially enters the asteroid cave, so that it looks like it's still diving downwards at this point?

148.  Fix the 'white holes' seen behind the Falcon as it initially enters the asteroid cave, either by colouring them in so that they become part of the cave wall, or by changing them to a single entrance hole that shows the starfield perhaps?

 

DAGOBAH (additional suggestions)

149.  Show Yoda actually taking a bite out of Luke's food rations?  Done! example here - http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/6671/12832511630552683157200.jpg

150.  Reposition where Yoda is set down, so that he matches with the 'close-up' of him suddenly sitting on the log?  Done! example here - http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/6573/facebook09.png

151.  Re-'flip' the reversed shot of Yoda getting up after he's fallen?  Existing shot shown here - http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/2250/screenshot7b.png

 

BESPIN (additional suggestions)

152.  Remove the distracting SE 'floating spa' element seen through the Falcon's cockpit as it nears Cloud City, or make it smaller?

153.  Make the Falcon's 2 front red lights come on as it lands on the platform, to match the shots afterwards?

154.  Add a new city/sky/balcony 'railing' backdrop in the distance when Luke searches the corridors?  Done! example here - http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/7488/hallwaygoutcomp.jpg

 

FATHER/SON DUEL (additional suggestions)

155.  Add the hint of a deactivating lightsaber being sucked out of the big 'Vane' window alongside Luke?

156.  Move Luke's lightsaber hilt nearer to his right hand as he hangs from the walkway, so that your eye is drawn towards it better, and it doesn't remain lost amongst the other debris on the walkway?

157.  Make the flashing yellow gantry lights more consistently bright yellow in certain shots where they seem dull-looking?

158.  Fix the end of the gantry matte so that it matches the 'prop' section that Luke falls from?  Done! example here - http://img127.imageshack.us/img127/7417/trailercomp40.jpg

 

Okay, that's all for now, but I'll add more here when I can.

Please bear in mind that if anyone has any suggestions/or ideas, then they should ideally post them onto adywan's main 'ESB:R' thread for him and others to see/discuss over there -  http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/STAR-WARS-EP-V-REVISITED-EDITION-ADYWAN-NEW-TRAILER-AVAILABLE-NOW/topic/9060/

There are links to high quality 'Rapidshare' versions of various clips on his 1st post there.  Remember that a lot of the previews/shots already shown are still unfinished so far.

 

* EDIT * - Due to various reasons I've been unable to find enough time to add more to this particular compilation since I last posted here in March.  I was a little optimistic in 'reserving' most of the slots over the next 2 pages it seems!

However, since then, I've been lucky enough to receive a copy of the EMPIRE:Revisited 'workprint' from adywan...which has gone some way to answering which way he's chosen to go where some of the suggestions from everyone here are concerned...  I can only confirm that his edit is looking fabulous even in it's very incomplete 'workprint' form, and that I can't wait to see the finished version when it's done eventually...  :)

Here's a couple more 'comparison' examples that adywan has recently released though -

adywan's first test version is at the top, while the original shot is 2nd from the top, and adywan's latest versions are at the bottom -

 

adywan's version is at the bottom in this comparison below -

* EDIT * -  it's now Jan. 2011, and another new shot has been released.  adywan's version is at the bottom in this comparison below, and it will have a '3D zoom' effect -

 

This is the final version of how the 'Emperor hologram' looks now in both it's 'side-on' and 'front-facing' views.  adywan's version is at the botton in both of these comparisons below -
