Remember back to when I was posting that instead of a musical number Lapti Nek/Jedi Rocks should be replaced and the scene become more of a burlesque dance?

It would make the scene more like the debauched dance routines in old historical epics.

I've been playing around with the idea.

This could be achieved by filming more dancers and manipulating them to look alien (I know these look rather like Orion slave girls but that's not such a bad thing, at least they aren't bad puppets or CGI). Just as with using the 501st to swell the Stormtrooper numbers in the film, I'm sure there must be some dancing ladies on the convention circuit who would love to be in a Star Wars film. The piece of music playing in my head is Salome's Dance from the Blade Runner soundtrack:

Dancers 2

Interesting idea, but don't you think the last pic is a bit mature for a Star Wars film? ;)

Max Reebo has been there from day one...oh I see what you mean ;-)

Actually she is wearing a full body leotard but that has vanished a bit in the motion blur, remember George says there is no underwear in outer space so perhaps she should have a bit of gaffer tape over the lady bumps.

I think it might work well if the ladies were holograms. Then there wouldn't be a problem with trying to match them into the footage.

Now that is a great idea.

i wonder if some of the deleted scenes from ROTJ be restored? (the rancor grate scene/the darth vader contacting luke through a dream scene/ben's hut(cave) scene)

Some of us are working on the Ben Hut bit.

The Vader dream idea seems very workable.

I m not a fan of flashbacks or dreams. Its not Star wars-y.

I like that less is more.

From page 9 of the liner notes for ROTJ:

"TATTOOINE RENDEZVOUS (2), most of which accompanies a sequence eliminated from the film. in it, Vader uses the Force to contact his son Luke Skywalker. the tone of the music changes with the appearance of a synthesizer and dissonant strings, which williams uses to gracefully the setting to the desert planet of tattoine. The next thirty min- (to page 10) utes of music are imbued with dark complexity as luke and his companions embark on the rescue of (paraphrase) han from jabba.(end) Eerie tonailities of wailing woodwinds and abrasive brass seem to come from the enviroment itself as the heroes encounter a den of bizzare alien creatures. The sequence begins with the brief  telepathic exchange between luke and vader, which is broken by the appearance of artoo and threepio acompanied by lukes theme aand a bouncing wind melody as lukes places his new lightsaber inside artoo's dome. this motif continues as heard in the film"

Love those mockups Vaderios, never noticed that guy leaning on the wall. And I love the cracks in the glass in the explosion one

 Nice!  I think the camera shake starts a bit too early, bit I like the concept.

I came up with the idea that is cool the bridge going shaking as the a wing engines come closer and closer.

Executor Bridge! How wonderful :)

Pity i cant say the same for ROTJ version of it.

Based on ESB matte-set then:

I post that in some big rez to see some details or what.

I hate dead blacks...

This shot is going to have to be worked on for many reasons. For one thing: why is that station right in the middle of the friggen walkway?!  Think about it for a second: take the opening bridge shot in EMPIRE and stick a guy on a console right in the dead center of the set.  Is Vader going to have to say "excuse me" every time he wants to pace up and down the center walkway to keep an eye on the other guys?

And is that imp officer slacking off on the far left?  Good thing he's wearing black or Vader would would notice and wake him up rather rudely...

 

Does it matter that I see the Studio Set instead of space?

And that is provided the shot is kept (always hated that a fighter no bigger than a mini-cooper took out the Executor, which is what, as big as Manhattan island?).  I still vote for the kamikazi freighters...

Or the whole wall for that matter?  Strange.  They had the whole set (looks like they built more of it because there's no more matte lines around the center window), but they put the consoles up wrong and put one guy in the middle of the walkway!  How strange indeed.

That shot have no sense at ALL...

Just completetely ignore the holo. I messed up the saves and i hadnt the undo i was needed.

 

Considering ady's way of thinking i could propose a vader from 501st legion to move like the movie so the bridge isnt full in the middle of nowhere.
