Duel pic sounds like a great idea to me!
teharri said:I know I am jumping the gun here, but for next weeks picture can we get a duel pic?
Please no!
Keep the visual spoilers to the minimum! :P

I think I'll agree with vaderios there. That kind of stuff will be in the trailer, anyway, I imagine. For now, background shots and such are great.

I agree with Angel. Lets try to make due focusing on the shots already released and not encourage more spoilage. One shot a week is fine, I think we should try to occupy ourselves with those and any new issues that are raised until the trailer.
Now I see that teharri was just asking if next weeks shot could be of the duel. In that case, I'm impartial. It's totally up to Adywan.

I just had an idea for Luke's approach into Cloud City. I'm gonna try and make it soon. (this is sort of a reminder to myself)

I love the new Luke arrival shot ady... I didn't fully appreciate it until I saw the side-by-side comparison with the original (thanks for that vaderios). Both the new cloud elements and the (new?) Cloud City look much better.
However, 2 suggestions/comments:
- I agree with Jeyl in that the forground cloud element could stand to be darkened a little to blend better with the background clouds
- Also, as vaderios suggested, the forground clouds could also be "blued" up a bit.
Here's what I had in mind (yours on top, mine below):
Of course, if you say you already tried this and the results were less than stellar, then I know you made the right decision and that the finished shot will look as good as it possibly can.

Wow its like the calm before darth vaders storm. Dark and scary. Lightening would really make it seem as though at least to luke something really bad has happened. If you watch something like that with New un star wars eyes you would get A bad feeling about this.
"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

personally I don't like the dark cloud idea at all
for me its enough that it is no longer a repetitive painting that gets flipped throughout
keep it up ady I am itching for the trailer

Hey guys just wonderin two things, one is this scene gonna get redone or scrapped. Secondly has Adywan already beaten me to it lol
Its the fact of each of them has black lines round them, they seem to be a different colour to the rest of the scene and their acting unfortunately due to the fact the scene was probably not recorded on set that their acting seems fake similar to PT lmao
U wouldnt happen to be anyone i know mr. jinx =0

Lol! That was my first fixed matte to the forums!
Ady said he will make a new one with more real elements to eliminate the paint look.

Alright guys ive given this litterally two secs of my time, so quality is low lol
^ That scene always stuck out like a sore thumb to me - not necessarily because of the matte, but because of the highly dubious acting. Do they not just explain what Leia explains to the Rebel pilots a few moments later in the film? I, personally, wouldn't mind seeing that scene axed completely - it just seems to stick out from the rest of the movie at this point, by not adding anything to the plot, and showcasing some pretty poor performances.

I totally agree with that statement, the footage itself seems to be from another movie they just inserted, just feels unnatural there.
I agree. Leia explains the situation perfectly well later on. And as someone else once said, it's as if the guy (in the pic) is waiting for someone to yell "cut" at the end, lol.
I've seen acting in video games that dominated that scene. I am really referring to topdawg's avatar when i am saying that. Dark Forces 2 was epic.

hmmmm. Jedi Knight Revisited.....
I love those games so much but sorry All of them are being revisited by modders. I played the demo for dark forces and it was awesome. Not too much progress on dark forces 2 but suprisingly Mysteries of the Sith is doing good. Outcast doesnt need one so it isnt being done. I really cant wait for the Shadows of the Empire mod for Jedi Academy. Oh i forgot to add they are all mods for jedi academy.

According to wookipedia, the guys in that scene were art directors, conceptual artists, etc and not actors. No wonder the performance is poor!

But is like obvious re dubbing. so no luck at all.

While I can see that a direct 'wipe' from the shot showing Ozzel glowering at Captain Needa, straight to the one of Han atop the Falcon, fixing it, could work out okay....I'd miss this Rebel Base shot not being included for these reasons -
We get to see a lot more of the Base, including seeing some of the actual large 'Transports', in this establishing shot.
We'd miss out on the exposition about the intentions for the 'snowspeeders' which Leia doesn't cover later on, since we hear "Groups 7 and 10 will stay behind to fly the speeders...."
And most of all we'd miss out on Adywan's intentions to totally re-do this shot in his own inimitable way, which has GOT to be worth seeing!
Also, personally I'd prefer if we don't return to a 'blue' hue for the clouds in general during 'Luke's approach to Bespin City", as I really like the 'whitish' / 'greyish' colouring that is going on now, but it's no biggie at the end of the day.
By the way, like vaderios, I'll admit that I too thought teharri was hoping for TWO preview shots per week rather than one....until it was pointed out that the word "DUEL" was used, rather than "DUAL", lol. :)
