I do not wish to annoy anybody here, but I just wanted to add my own 2 cents about the green laser topic. I personally feel that the green lasers, from the example above, look mighty impressive, and if it was just for show, I would say it's not necessary. But I do feel that continuity-wise, it would fit in just fine. I have never really liked the red lasers from the AT-ATs, or the AT-STs, but have accepted them long ago because that is what we were given. In general, I have always associated the Empire with the green lasers, because for the most part, that's what their ships fire. Now, I also feel that the red lasers do not necessarily break continuity, so I don't think it would hurt the series either way. But my own feeling is that since it was mentioned that green lasers wouldn't look good against the backdrop of hoth, I have to say that to me, they really do stand out very well. And since I believe Adywan is rotoscoping all the laser fire and lightsabers anyways, like in ANH:Revisited, I imagine that it wouldn't make much of a difference, effort-wise, whether he redid the laser fire in red, or switched to green. Either way, he's re-doing the lasers. Correct me if I'm wrong on that.

Anyways, that's just my own opinion. I understand that Adywan is against the idea, and I respect his vision. He has done wonders with ANH:Revisited, and I'm certain that when this project is released, it will once again blow away what Lucasfilm gave us for a special edition.

I have grown up with the red lasers the AT ATs, and i havent really thought about the imperial continuity issue, until now. If it was done, it would stand out like a sore thumb for me, as i would wonder.........erm, why? Star Destroyers shoot green, and if you want to get technical, AT ATs shoot red because....thats what AT ATs do!

I agree with hotrod

If you turn all the AT-AT lasers green, then you might as well turn all the stormtrooper's green too.

Then you'd have to go back to ANH:R and turn those lasers green too.

 

However, what I would like to see is more fire being exchanged from both factions.  More ground fire, like you see in the battle of geonosis.

The thing is, for now, Adywan doesn't seem to be able to view the thread as much as he might like, and he has already stated his thoughts on the red/green laser deal. Then when he does come in for a look, all he sees are red/green laser discussions. :p

And this post didn't help either...

We need to think of something else to debate! Haha. ;)

I liked the SE changes.  I asked because I still don't quite understand the "Abandoned Clip" from earlier in the week.

Common guys, enough with the green lazers vs. red.  It's Ady's edit and he stated they would remain red. You gotta respect that.

Minor quibble/suggestion here, but is it possible to remove the "Chicken Walkers?"  I just never felt they belonged on Hoth...the AT-ATs are more of an immediate threat.  The AT-STs seem better suited to JEDI where the Emperial forces would have to manuever in much smaller spaces given all the trees in the forest.

Either that, or make their design more menacing somehow....

I thought "SW-R" was the most amazing fan-creation of all time, easily surpassing the actual SE. Thanks to it, I finally threw out my laser-disc dub bootleg DVD of the original verson of Star Wars. I eagerly look forward to "ESB-R."

I do want to ask a question,and pardon me since this is probably answered in one of the previous 165 pages, but I only managed to read about 50 of them.

Why the adamant "no PT music" rule? I ask because the Obi-Wan/Vader battle in SW-R used PT music to such a great effect (one of my personal highlights of SW-R).

And for what it's worth, as a lifelong Star Wars junkie, I've never spent a second worrying why the AT-ATs shot red lasers.

To help answer your ?

I think since we are getting into ep 5, and moving away from the ep3/ep4 midpoint, that the prequel's music is no longer necessary, Ya know what I mean? 

I guess What I'm trying to say is that it's a new era.  New era= different music

 And The reason why Ady put Battle of the Heros in for the Ben/Vader fight is because it was the rematch, or a continuation of the fight on Mustafar.

 

...I suck at explaining things  =P

DGC General X took the words right out of my mouth.  The use of "Battle of the Heroes" in the Vader/Kenobi fight helped to bridge the two trilogies.  Lucas once describe each Star Wars installment as a rhyme in a poem.  I think that the use of "Battle of the Heroes" in Revisited is a pefect example of this philosophy being effectively implemented.

On an entirely different note:

I also laughed at the removal of the CW's

I want more, but I know I shouldn't

 

 

P.S. I got the guys in TFU thread mad at me cause I said Lucas' version of ANH sucked   =P

Well, for those interested, I just jumped in to a few minutes of watching the Episode 5 GOUT stretched sideways on a large LCD screen in a neighboring dorm suite. Not exactly the best video quality or viewing experience, but it's good to see there are die-hard original fans out there. I'm going to do my best to get the owner interested in the Revisited edits. :D

And wow, there are a lot of parallel/random discussions going on. o_o

I may not be around for a while because my 14 year old nephew was killed at the weekend as he crossed the road by an asshole boy racer who was racing another car and decided to drive on the wrong side of the road and ploughed straight into him. Feelings are running pretty high here at the moment and star wars is the last thing on my mind now. It's hit my kids pretty hard so i need to be there for them and there is no possible way i could concentrate on anything else right now. I'll still pop in from time to time but i can't say how long it will be before i get back to things here. But the project isn't cancelled, just on a slight hold.
