Info & Ideas: ESB and ROTJ Wishlist — Page 278

I was just joking and yeah, that's a really good idea, that they were already causing trouble to the Empire before.

It'd be nice if they could be excised from the film, but since they can't, yeah, make them somehow turn a little more vicious.  At the same time, the Stormtroopers go out like a bunch of pussies and are taken down WAY too easily, so I don't know how that could be fixed.  The "battle" as it is now is a joke.

It would also be great if an establishing shot could be added that shows some Rebel commandos helping the Ewoks build and load their traps.  Those logs and rocks didn't load themselves.  Perhaps the Ewoks were already hard at work building the traps before the Rebels arrived, but it would add to the story to show them working together.  Just a thought.

The way everything moves in that DS laser mockup, it gives me the feeling that the Death Star has gained sentience and might just decide to declare itself emperor

They're saying it looks like an angry living machine that just might kill every living thing aboard in its mauler/crushers.

You could have a bizarro edit where after throwing Palpatine down the well his spirit possesses the whole battlestation and it becomes a giant Sith eye (end game boss) chucking Force Lightning around the place until Lando fires a blast into his giant mechanical heart...(that looks like it belongs in the worst edit ideas thread).

Trust Vader to make a bad situation worse even when he has good intentions.

Sorry, had to do it.

Okay, back to TESB and ROTJ wishes....

I hate to flog this horse yet again, but I bought the new Hasbro AT-AT today.  It is HUGE and very well made.  It has a red front viewport, and one of the phrases the AT-AT commander says is "Forward deflectors at full power."

I know it's just a toy, but there you have it.

Then again, here's the StarWars.com description from the Databank:

The All Terrain Armored Transport, or AT-AT walker, is a four-legged transport and combat vehicle used by the Imperial ground forces. Standing a towering 15 meters tall, these walkers are intimidating, and are used as much for psychological effect as they are for tactical effect.

An AT-AT has blast-impervious armor plating, and resembles a gigantic beast as it moves across the battlefield. An AT-AT's head carries the main armaments, a pair of light blasters located on the walker's "temples," and heavier, twin laser cannons mounted on the walker's "chin."

The command crew pilots the AT-AT from the walker's head, which is connected to the main body by a flexible neck. The crew consists of a commander, a gunner, and a pilot. Additional crews and troops can be carried in the walker's main storage bay.

Looks like this is a case of "choose your canon."

Just re watching ROTJ the other day, I cannot wait to see someone get rid of Luke's lightsaber bat in the beginning and add some slashing.

Indeed.  That's what I was trying to convey for the "AT-AT debate."  I only copy/pasted the FILM info, and spared the EU info because it is nothing but shite.

At what point in the film would this have taken place?  What cave?

Author

Oh, yeah!  I forgot about those photos.  It would be cool indeed to have some more cool supplementals.

The cave where Luke builds his new lightsaber, before the droids go to Jabba's palace.

The only evidence before this picture became available was a matte painting for an establishing shot that may or may not have been used.  This is the first confirmation (that I know of) that it was actually filmed.

LOL, sorry.  I don't know much about the saber building scene, other than it was conceived and a prop was built, but of course did not come to fruition.

Author

Interesting shot, why haven't we seen it before, I wonder? So they had the matte and shots of the droids, they just didn't film the Luke interior stuff, right?
