Info & Ideas: ESB and ROTJ Wishlist — Page 82

DO NOT WANT! kidding, i really think things look fine as they are costume wise, It seems a little over the top. I'm all for endor being the magical forest world it should be, minus the sun staff and all that,lol. Maybe taller trees, a more dramatic landscape in the distance, but sometimes simplicity is best. Balance.

maybe too radical, and i dont know why or how this could be done, but maybe somehow leia could have it, and she could give it to luke to where, repeating anakin's line from TPM 'it will bring you luck' (i think he says that.:P)

 

i am assuming that ROTS:R wont have padme dying, to fit in with her surviving until leia is young enough to remember her, and thus perhaps give it to her.

Adywan isn't gonna go to that kind of trouble for a necklace. Plus, Leia is the daughter of a great jedi. She may think she remembers her mother were in turn she actually has felt her mother. The jedi are hard to understand in that sense. But life finds a way in the star wars universe to continue. Another thing keeping padme alive would be damn near impossible. It would tear the saga apart. and thus be a great continuity error which i hear ady doesn't like continuity errors.

 

 

i didnt mean keeping padme alive for the OT, but just not killing her off in ROTS, surely leia saying she remembered her mother as a child, yet somehow dying a few minutes after she was born is a continuity error, as you said ady doesn't like continuity errors. why doesnt luke remember her if its felt through the force? that all sounds a bit like an excuse really.

the necklace i thought was just an interesting conversation topic. i should think that the ROTJ should reference some PT elements (depending on what ady does with the PT) as it should wrap things up a bit more.

 

Well, it's not all bad, if Leia had said something like "I remember her and I played together when I was 3." or something similar it would have been an ironclad plot hole, but being the way Leia says it. "Just images really....feelings." it can work in the context of the SW Universe, but it would not work here on Earth in real life. We are not force sensitive, Leia is. Why can't Luke remember? It's like saying why someone can remember something an another at the same event cannot. Leia seems more connected to her mother, and Luke more to his father.

Thank you for explaining my point. Leia was raised with knowledge of her mother too.

Why would the empire need camo. They were not really expecting an attack. They were just standing around guarding the generator.

Actually, they were expecting an attack. It was the emperor who allowed the rebels to know the location of the shield generator, and an entire legion of his best troops awaited them. For this reason, I'm afraid the deflector shield was quite operational when Luke's friends arrived.

Its still all forest ;) but more interesting! try to see that image at night, when vader lands. The sound of waterfalls combining with lights= awesome. And will not occure problem with the later scenes because the bunker will be far from teh water falls.

Still when we see the dish gets explode a new matte or a more dramatic angle is good.

IMO always :)

Yep. Forests need water. Planets have cliffs. Water falls off of cliffs. Haha.

That scene sucks. Basicaly ROTJ has the same bad lighting with ANH ( strong sharp shadows)

I tried to eliminate some of them and reduce the blacks.

I enhance the screen so the middle one shows the rebels approach the death star and the front one to show several shit of the shield generator.

Also new panels.

So much for the Ewoks worshipping their golden idol.

I don't see it as a problem if this change was made, most forest cultures worship some kind of tree spirit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Man his shining eyes would look like the sun through the trees.

I never bought the idea that the Ewoks would worship Threepio just because he was a droid (the Imperials have been on the planet for some time and they have been doing much more godlike).

Which was why I suggested that Threepio looked like an already worshipped God

And that when they are about to cook the hero's Threepio projected frightening holograms around him:

 

That would be cool. Since R2-D2's memory was never wiped, he would remember seeing Darth Maul way back in TPM.

It would be nice to mix up the types of trees (huge oversized red woods, ten times the size they should be with thin impossibly tall bamboo like plants that sort of thing).

Make it look more like an enchanted forests of myth.

But mixing in with the shot footage would be a real bugger (it's not like doing Hoth which is mostly wide open ice planes with mountains in the background).

Ewok totems would be nice too (as well as the nasty stormies on pikes I suggested earlier).

It's a shame the creatures in the Ewok films were done on the cheap because there were some nice designs (even if they were realised in really bad stop motion and men in suits, though no superfast bunny rabbits please).

I really liked the look of the Blurrgs for example but not the way they ended up on screen (I haven't seen them in the Clone Wars series but they look like the sort of thing that could be done well if the models were better).

Hmm, maybe the Ewoks eat these guys (there version of buffalo) and it is from hunting these that the Ewoks use the same tactics to "hunt" the Scout Walkers...

Has anyone thought of using scenes from LEGEND or DARK CRYSTAL?  I don't know how it could work, but just an idea (be it for scenes or creature designs, like the stilt creatures)...
