***The "Darth Editous" Episode V DVD Info and Feedback Thread*** - a work in progress — Page 10

DE,

I was watching the opening battle between the star destroyer and the rebel ship. At 2m 25s into the film, the star destroyer passes over the camera and creates an enormous blue hue peaking at 2m 26s to come spewing off the planet's corona. It goes away with the camera angle change 2 seconds later.

Don't know if this was intentional by Jorge (George's budget crew ), but it doesn't look right.

I know Adywan fixed this in his edit. I think DE fixed this as well...

Not that I've checked, but I'm not sure it wasn't there all along - it's just been ramped up in the over-saturated 2004 DVDs. Anyway, my badblue plugin (written to remove some horrible blue garbage in some post-escape Death Star scenes) removes it beautifully:

This should all be in my Episode IV thread, where it has previously been discussed, btw...

Doh, I just realized based on your comment that I did indeed post to the wrong thread.

Mea culpa.

Is this project still going on? Never remember hearing if it was called off or what

Also, do you still have that clip of your McDiarmid Emperor dialogue, with him saying "yes" twice?

Hey guys,

I'm sorry for disappearing like that, it wasn't by choice but real life really knocked me down for a while. But, I'm back, and I'm rewriting my image library so I can redo a lot of ANH edits with AviSynth plugins and save on some disk space (and maybe do some nicer colour adjustment).

Assuming that all goes well, I don't see why I won't be going back to ESB.

Darth Editous, good to see you back!

What kind of changes do you have planned for v4 of ANH?

You know of the rebellion against the Empire?

Author

WOW, this is a great surprise! Welcome back, DE! :D

Another version of ANH is always welcome. I still have the first three. Haha. (and I always recommend v3 in trades) It would be great if you were able to continue with ESB. You've always had fresh ideas and it's fun following the progress on these threads.

Aww, you guys!

But seriously, has anyone got any input before I get started? For one thing, I was thinking of using the 1997 LD SE soundtrack instead of the 2004 DVD, as I understand it's a "proper" DD mix rather than an "optimised for downconversion" one like the DVD.

As for actual release (however many months away that is), it's likely there will be one Xvid or x264 release rather than separate DVDs. With the proliferation of flat TVs (and the fact that mine plays Xvid/x264 straight off USB keys, woo) DVDs are becoming soooo last century.

Well, there was one suggestion I made a little too late. I think you liked it too, because you said something like 'oh, now you tell me, after it's done.' ;) It's a very minor thing, like so many of the other things others notice and I don't, but this one has always stood out to me.

Basically, it's the ol' "In fact, I, uh...also thinking about our agreement" thing. The word 'was' should be in there, but I think the way they edited the scene cut it off either completely or to the point where there's so little of it left, it's buried.

I think all that would have to be done, much like how you inserted the "yeah" in the Falcon, would be to add an 's' sound in there. It doesn't even have to be 'was', just the end of it, so that it becomes sort of like 'zalso.'

Dig? Thoughts?

I think that suggestion belongs in the Episode IV thread?

Yes the intensity was indeed considerable. Although I must admit that my favourite fragments were actually least as kill secret.
