Just PM me your address. No problem. Understand, though, that this is the ROUGH CUT of the movie, and I don't have a final cut. To make a final cut I would need a much better dub for Anakin and for Jar-Jar as well. If you ignore the voices, though, it's actually pretty fun to watch, even in this state. It feels like a Star Wars movie.  So, I'm in school right now (with a lot of work!), but I'm burning discs right now.  How it'll work is I'll take care of all the USA addresses, and then Erikstormtrooper has made the kind offer to mail one to the UK and one to Australia, and then anybody else in the UK and Australia that wants to see it will get it from whoever Erik sent it to.

Hi guys,

It will be this coming weekend I will get these discs sent.  I got a couple new addresses over the last couple days.  From now till Thursday night is last call for the rough cut (from me, anyway).  Friday I will probably start mailing the packages out.

Hi,

Some more requests for the rough cut have trickled in over the past week.  The next couple of days is very last call.  These are all going out Monday.

I've rewatched a lot of this and I just want to mention that my Anakin dub in this version in particular is horrendous.  I mean, it's bad.  Watching it now as an audience member, it sounds exactly like someone dubbing over the movie.  It doesn't work.  

The other problem we were running into was with Jar-Jar's voice, which didn't seem to mesh.  

Luckily, it's looking like we may actually have solutions to these problems.  

Spence, who did a test dub for a short lived "Star Wars noir" project has a great voice, and one that I think would work with Hayden onscreen.  He wants to see the movie before he commits to anything, but he seemed very open.  

Timstuff has also recently contacted me.  He would be happy to voice Jar-Jar for SOTDS.  

This is pretty exciting because if we take care of these 2 main issues, I might be able to actually finish this.

Yes, he did.  Especially since they were going to all these different states, and to Canada.  He looked confused;)

wow...just wow. amazing. Just got mine in the mail today and watched it. It's just a fantastic project. Certainly very rough, feels a bit like a workprint, not all of your choices I agree with, but I mean, you totally changed the mood and emotion of the film. It WORKS now! I mean wow...wow. If you need any help with anything, voice acting or otherwise, let me know, I may be able to help at some point. I'd comment on some specific sections, but I just want to let everyone see it first. I'll tell you I had a smile on my face when the clone troopers first showed up in battle. The music choices are interesting, they are definitely an improvement over the film's often bland OST but a lot of it feels TOO old. Like beyond star wars 77 old, like it belongs in a foreign film from the 40s or something. Same with the editing, a lot of it disregards continuity for emotion which I'm not sure is very Star Wars. The film feels older, it feels rawer and it works dramatically but I'm not sure if it feels like Star Wars, it doesn't feel 80s at all. I think this is definitely closer to what George wanted with the whole "classic romance" thing because it's much more sincere than the original. but again, wow. most ambitious edit ever and on all accounts it succeeds!
