(EDIT: Link Updated)

Just to let you know that I re-encoded, and re-uploaded the video.

Now you'll be able to watch the whole thing, including the 'gag' I worked soo hard on.

Enjoy! :D

Nice one! :) The shortened probe droid shootout looks/feels quite different just by shortening it.

Um, shouldn't that AT-AT head be pointing AWAY from us, being that Luke is coming out of the AT-AT's body?  For some reason, it makes me think the AT-AT is alive and its straining its head so it can see what's going on behind it...

I think that discussion came, and went, a long time ago.

Were they coming straight out of the walker and into that corridor where Vader is, or did they have to turn into it? If they had to walk out of the walker and turn right into that corridor, then the position is correct. I can't remember, though.

 Looks like a job for Angel! :D

Also I think that by the end of this scene the sun should be coming up in the background...or simply getting brighter...

Look at the scene where Luke turns himself over to Vader on that brigde thingy. You can't see much out the window except for a couple of tree and the ATATs head which seems to be turned at an odd angle...

Also I was just thinking it would look cool if by the end of this scene the sun was coming up in the background since the next scene the sun has *just* come up...

I'd also say delete the tree right in front of the AT-AT too (the big one on the left, right beside the head).

In fact, would it be possible to completely rework the area around the landing platform so there are no trees at all?  I know the Empire is stupid beyond belief (which makes me wonder how in the hell they are even an Empire... maybe no one has ever put their stupidity to the test the way the Rebels have, and since the Rebels have poor PR no one knows about it.  It's like putting a 5-year-old in the driver seat of one of those mega dump trucks:



all people see is the truck and don't realize the kid can't drive it worth a damn, much less that a kid is driving the thing), but would they have things with legs walking around a dense forest of trees?  Really?

It's like people say 'why don't they just fly above the trees?' in the speeder bike scene. Doesn't always make sense. Wouldn't be nearly exciting otherwise. In the case of the walkers, I would think the AT-AT would do better than the AT-ST, but still a tad cramped in the middle of a forest. :p

Just put the Juggernauts from Ep 3. They design them for forests too :)

In a comic appears to do a decent job of opening roads.

Just please don't think it was ME saying they should fly above the trees. Even as a little kid, I never thought that. It's usually non-sci-fi fans that bring up issues like that, not thinking about how it's a movie, and how boring it would be if they weren't among the trees. ;) Just using it as a fantasy vs. reality example. (as "real" as repulsorlift technology can be, anyway)

I think that discussion came, and went, a long time ago.

 i knew there was, i just didn't know adywan was considering it. well, i guess ill have to get on my knees and beg. :p

There's a place for that, too.

Yeah, but even as a kid there gets to a point where you just throw your hands up at it all.  Flying down the trench on the Death Star was one thing; flying a speeder bike 100 mph+ in a frickin forest is something else... REGARDLESS of how cool it may look.

Let's not even bring up how there were something like 9 scout troopers all hanging out at the same area, and ALL 9 got wacked by Rebels who had no training in that environment nor on that equipment (and not ONE of them thought to use their radio)... or how when Han does his little "radio in front of the face" trick, they ALL come running out of the bunker without closing the door behind them or even standing IN the doorway so someone could run back in and shut them.  Again... really?  Can we just CGI the Emperor and replace him with Wile E. Coyote and get it over with?

Maybe when Vader throws Emperor Coyote down the elevator shaft, we can see him throw an anvil down after him...

Personally, I can go either way.  JEDI is just so damn goofy I don't know what you can do with it.

If you wanted it to be more serious, you would have to do a HELL of a lot more than just wack Lando, of which we've talked about:

(1) more native-esque, VC-ish Ewoks, with some storm trooper limbs getting tossed into the air during the dogpile scenes, as well as showing the Ewoks ability for digging tunnels with claws or tools; have more pit-related traps that the Imps wouldn't see coming (like logs on top of a cleared hill in an otherwise dense forest)

(2) a stronger voice for Vader with maybe some lines from EMPIRE to help him come across as a stronger character (or at least as the SAME character as what we saw in EMPIRE)

(3) if we have the whole corelation between Luke's mech arm and Vader's mech arm, I would still like to see Luke tearing off peices of machinery and throwing them at Vader during the final fight ala what Vader did at Bespin to show just how close Luke is to turning to the Dark Side, much less give a reason as to Vader taking a dive like he does.  I have NEVER bought that whole bit where Prowse damn near "knees the ball for a safety" and allows Mark to whack away at his arm and that is somehow supposed to convince me that Luke had the powa to overthrow Vader.

(4) being that the original intention before Lucas "prequelized" JEDI was to kill a main character, I know these edits are primarily for Ady, being that he is doing all the hard work, but it would still be nice to see what Kurtz and those others who seemed to take all of this more seriously than Lucas had in mind.

Regardless, if you wanted to keep it more or less the same, that would mean less editing and altering.. but then what is the point?  Ady can redo the space battle to make it more exciting and a little more serious, but if the ewoks are still a joke and Darth Vader is still a lame lackie, it's still going to be the same "prequel before the prequels" JEDI.

Even more regardless, this is a good 3 to 5 years off, so we'll have plenty of time to banter until then....

AOTC=Orange

ROTJ=$#@%*!

Red cockpits, Cyan panels, magenta ships and bad contrasts.

Anyways i made some more civilized colors i add endor to define some space and depth.

Executor now has his own subtle blue/cyan color.
