If he doesn't like them, why touch them?

Because he sees the potential there to make something decent, via hard work in editing.

"It's not that hard a concept to grasp"

Not at the expense of damaging the movie though.

 

No offense, but I don't think that he could actually damage the movie.

And like you said, he's edits of the PT are a long way off.

 

Im not offended, Im not Lucas!! And yes the PTs are a long way off and like I said before, just like the OTs, I might be pleasantly surprised by the PTs. Here's hoping! ;)

would it be asking too much to have one of these hiding in a corner somewhere:

and for ROTJ

I looked at the identification tag on your collar, and that's the link imprinted on it.

 Is there one of Vader?

Dangerous Incorporated said:

I dont think the PT should really be touched that much. If you dont like them then dont watch them let alone re-edit them. It sounds like your planning on sabotaging them Ady.

Ady's comment about "ripping them to shreds" is what's called sarcasm.  What he means is that he'll be doing a lot more editing to them as far as content, compared to the FX heavy work on the OT.

Don't take everything so literally, D I.

Get over peeps. That convo is dead a buried!

Dangerous Incorporated said:

Like I originally said, if he doesnt like them, then dont watch them!!

Right. But he obviously does like them to some extent if he wants to take the time to modify them to make them more enjoyable, as is his opinion/prerogative. Don't forget that these are his visions for what he'd like to see. He just happens to be sharing his work with us, which is very nice of him. :)

And like you've said, we'll always have the original versions. In fact, you would probably love ADigitalMan's extended versions of the PT movies! Might want to look into that.

Sounds interesting. I just might do that. Thanx. Do you have a link for them please?

I'll PM you about it.

i'm going to maybe add a faint saber glow on lukes face only in a couple of closeups. the whole glow issue seems to have been overdone a bit in the PT but the bit where they swing the sabers around their heads in AOTC is going anyway so the other glows are so quick you hardly notice them anyway 

I did a re-edit of the duel you are referring to from AOTC, a while back. If you look at the re-edited sequence I did, the glow is still there in the two-shots, but yes, without the closeups, it is not really all that noticeable.

I still like the idea of just the faintest of a glow on Luke's face in a few of the scenes in ESB. Perhaps Vader's armor is not very reflective to the glow? I don't recall a lot of reflections on his armor in the other films, but I'd have to look again.

Thank you for this.

And I hope that Ady in no way takes offense to what I said. I think some members took one thing I said and ran with it. I love the OT edit he is doing atm and am looking 4wd to the rest of the edits in the series. I watched ANH for the first time the other night and watched it again today and I love it. In fact I hadnt watched ANH for about 5 years now and then I watched twice in 1 week and this is the way it should have been. Some of the thing Ady did in ANH completly surprised me and looks like it was done by ILM. Thanx Ady.

i just can't wait to get my hands on those PT moies so i can rip them to shreds.

 gawd you depress me so much when you say things like that. I love ANHR and ESBR seems to be right on track as far as quality and vision goes. Yet your vision of the pequels seems to be the same as everyone elses and that means gutting them. With everything you've said that you are taking out of the prequels there doesnt seem to be enough material left for one movie, let alone three. Im just sad I wont have a revisited prequel trilogy to go along with the OTR.

but the trailer will be coming out on the 21st may to mark the greatest star wars movie and not the 19th so not a  bloody phatman menace celebration. lol

HAHAHAHA

(can you tell i'm buzzing my tits off on painkillers at the moment? I cracked my whole canine tooth off and no chance of getting to a dentist anytime soon and the hsopital won't touch any dental work unless refered to them by a dentist. catch 22. thanks you the UK government for making our NHS so crap)

I for one cant wait either :)The prequels are what they are, a bold revision is something  I Absolutely cannot wait for and Ady is the man to d o it! till then, ESB:R is gonna rock cant wait to see that Wampa action!

And damn, sorry to hear about your Dental coverage, I wish there was something I could about that, but even  I have my limits ;P

I'm going to get some heat on this, but can we "stay on target" and not flood this thread with Monty Pythonesque banter back-and-forth for 20 messages about anything OTHER than EMPIRE:REVISITED?

If you like the Prequels, Great!  If you don't, Great!

Ady is going to do his thing eventually, and we will be there to professionally suggest.  The end.  <:D

____________________________________________


BTW, I think it is going to be very hard to salvage the Prequels, even more so than JEDI.  After watching JEDI again recently, I noticed that despite the rather good acting we received with the main cast from the first and second films, the line readings were a little more on the "hokey" side in JEDI - there is something that is not quite natural (the words when Mark, Carrie and Harry speak are too enunciated and slower, like talking to a child), with maybe the exception of Billy D.

The Prequels are even worse - rather than enunciating things to the point of sounding like you are reading a children's story to.. well, a child, the voice work and acting is rather flat or off in just how the emotion is put out (which I think has a lot to do with the excessive green screen usage - nothing for the actors to really react to, which was the case for Christopher Lee - he's said so himself).

So even if the editing and FX work is fixed or finagled, you can't fix the acting or the dialogue, and that is what killed the Prequels, at least for me.

TY. Someone who thinks along the same way I do.  I may have come across a little harsh but this is basically my line of thinking too.

Thats why PMs are here.

Well done Monroville

Ady Im glad that some of lightsaber lighting will be in closeups.

Can someone please tell me why the background to each of these shots was changed? Im sure its been mentioned somewhere in the last 300 pages but I dont see the need for any of these changes to be made. Im sure theres a logical explanation though.

It was changed because it looked like shit. Ady's new background matte is 1000% better.

I dont notice any difference in quality apart from the colour correction. All I see is the pic is different. Why couldnt the pics remain the same but the background just be fixed up to Ady's (and ya'lls) liking?

Dangerous Incorporated said:

What do you propose?

The quality is superior and with these alternations the continuity errors between the mattes are eliminated.

And like you said that the pic is different. See a Bg replacement how adds to the scene.

*sigh* ok I'll bite... because what we have here IS to all our liking, except yours it seems, but oh well, looks fantastic to me ;)

Oh so its a continuity issue. Cool now I understand. Thanx guys again for filling me in.

I knew Ady wouldnt change it without a reason, I just didnt know what it was.
