Hello,
Just a couple of comments about the last few things we have been talking about.
DAGOBAH:
I think we should keep the original more cloudy shot. It just makes more sense why Luke would crash. In the ROTS shot it wouldn't make sense why he would not land at a place with better weather.
I do like Vaderios's X-Wing through the clouds shot. It adds depth.
As for the X-Wing Crash landing. As you can see from the first shot there is a clear path. So any shots of Luke standing in front of the X-wing have to mirror that.
As for adding spider creatures and slugs to Dagobah, I am not in favor. I like Dagobah the way it is. I think any changes should be subtle and enhancing, like the trees in the back ground, sunbeams cutting through the trees etc....
HOTH ESCAPE:
The Rebel Hoth escape has always kind of annoyed me for one reason. We are lead to believe that the Imperial Fleet establishes a blockade around the planet to catch the rebels escaping. The ion cannon fires, disabling one star destroyer, and then the rebel transport escapes through the hole in the blockade. Luke then pretty much makes his escape like he is on a sunday afternoon drive while the Falcon has to run for its life.
The part that doesn't make sense is that, if a star destroyer was disabled, wouldn't the imperial fleet redistribute itself to now cover the new hole? Why wouldn't the Falcon follow Lukes path out of Hoth? It sure is a lot easier and luke leaves Hoth less than 1 minute after the Falcon does. Personally I think, TPM gets the blockade thing right with forcing the Naboo starcruiser to blast past the Trade Federation ships.
How do we solve this then?
1)Perhaps more disabled Star Destroyers?
2)Have a more exciting escape for Luke?
3)Show that Vader distributes his fleet to chase after the Falcon letting the other rebels go?
Just some thoughts.
Matticon.
