A little late joke for april 1st.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZIoWOwXYtw

Ady, will you do musical numbers for ESB:R? It would be revolutionary. xD Btw at last I saw the first 16 min clip, it's awesome, and those two elements not drastically change the scene, I didn't noticed the trooper passing by, becouse itS not cover up the whole frame like the ronto did in ANH. If I bit nit pick that few frame that the last solider I would delete. He's out of place and obviusly copy-paste frome previous shot.

Cheers.

Yeah that model is so cool, I'm amazed at the lengths you go for this.  I'm counting down the months till this is done. *fingerscrossedforxmas*

My point exactly. Not only is It's a Trap extremely funny, it also confronts the viewer with all the obvious flaws ROTJ (in this case) presents.

Maybe ady should watch It's a Trap and take some notes :)

The sock puppet making fun of the SE was the best part!

I'm currently watching Family Guy: It's a Trap! and they sort of make a really valid point halfway in the film.

Why does it seem as if Leia's the only damn chick in the universe, besides Mon Mothma? Apart from one or two women in the background in ESB in Cloud City, I can't recall too many female characters.
And I'm of course deliberately not talking about the EU. Only the films.
Will something be done about that too?

That proves my point, doesn't it?

Not only is Leia one of the very few females in the Star Wars OT, but she also manages to kill what little more there are left when she kills Jabba and blows up his ship.
According to wookieepedia, the band escaped, but that's EU, so we're assuming they all burned to a crispy death in the fire ;)

Like the video says, there were...?
Leia herself, Mon Mothma, Aunt Beru, Sy Snootles, Rystall Sant, Greeata Jendowanian and Lyn Me (the back-up singers), and Oola.
8 in total, of which the latter 7 don't even manage to combine their screentime to half an hour.

Although, if you think about it, you couldn't blame Lucas.
Leia managed to send hundreds of people to their deaths, by having them do her dirty work, so she could have revenge for some dude blowing up her planet.

Don't forget Camie and Han's girlfriend that were both left on the cutting room floor....or the twins in the cantina now that I think about it.

"Leia managed to send hundreds of people to their deaths, by having them do her dirty work, so she could have revenge for some dude blowing up her planet."

Er what? She was part of a rebellion that existed before the destruction of alderaan, I don't think revenge factored too much into it or an ability to send hundreds to their deaths for a personal vendetta. It was a war of political ideals.

 

Anyway, love the way the AT-AT is coming out Ady. Has it been hard learning to do all this prop work?

It was an over-exaggerated view of her role in the campaign Tobar.
You're correct about Camie and Han's girlfriend, no doubt, but that still doesn't change the fact that the final result, as we've seen it, contains very little female presence.

And yes indeed, ady, the model is stunning.
I'm jealous of your craftsmanship.

Sorry folks but the ROTJ and women in Star Wars discussions aren't really on topic (though I'm very keen to see them continue elsewhere).

If Moth3r can ban Ady you are all in for a bumpy ride if you keep this kettle and pot on the boil.

No offense Bingo, but how is it off-topic if I clearly asked ady from the get-go if he could change anything about it? I know It's a Trap is based on ROTJ, but ady could easily implement female background characters during the stages of Hoth in ESB:R.
Especially so if he will be shooting scenes himself.

Sorry old bean, I wasn't paying full attention and missed the request.

There were quite a few background female characters in ESB that weren't strippers or housewives (another reason to love ESB).

You had the highish profile female Ion Control officer (who even gets a line) and the SE added a few more Bespinian members of 'the other gender'.

What would really lift Revisited would be to have some women of action.

Pink 5 may have been meant as a joke but there was something refreshing about having a female pilot inserted into the main battle of ANH (we get one in TPM and she's not just a young bit of eye candy either, I wish Celia Imrie played a major character and not just a bit part).

Having some women in on the battlefield and not working away in the relative safety of the command centre would be a plus.

A female Bespin Guard or two would might also make the film's male to female ratio a bit more representative.

Maybe giving the silver protocol droid on Bespin a female voice to insult Threepio is a step too far but I don't know (TPM established that the same model can have male or female personalities and I'm not that attached to the sound that comes out of that droid's speakers).

There isn't much wiggle space in ESB for female roles of much prominence but it might be possible to have a number of near substantial female characters inserted into ROTJ:R.

Pilots for one thing at least one was filmed for ROTJ but never made the final battle : 

Also the assault team, female characters on Jabba's palace and barge with guns or melee weapons, that sort of thing.

At least one of Palpatine's spooky friends could be a female too.

PT:R has quite a few female characters in the background but they tend not to speak much and the men have almost all the significant dialogue (other than Padme).

I was never sure if Zam really was a woman or just looked like one when in human form.

The deleted family scenes in AOTC played to female stereotypes (teasing about boyfriends, serving dinner) and looked very unStar Warsy (more like something out of The Princess Bride).

Re-filming some of the female Jedi and giving them some lines and adding a few sensible female Separatists would be great but saving Nat Portman's performance would be the biggest challenge there.

Putting Mon Mothma back into ROTS would be a good move.

One of the few things I liked about the PT is that someone pointed out to George that women also come in more than one skin colour and if any women can be added to the Revisited projects that and age variance would be well worth considering.

Don't forget about Ion Cannon lady:



And to keep it on topic (not to mention that I did bring up another female that is in EMPIRE STRIKES BACK), is there any way to add a CGI overlay or whatnot to the AT-AT heads to give them more detail (or just more texture), being that the close-ups look very model-ly?

I figure nothing can be done (short of ILM and a few million pesos), but just wondering if ANYthing could be done to spice up the head shots...

Regardless, here is a 3-D AT-AT head (and body) someone created:
















You should be able to "right-click" them for their full sized versions... looks to me that the only thing that is off is the "mini-gun" above the long lasers on the side turrets.

That is actually pretty impressive detail on that CG model.  However, given what Ady's said he's using this for, I don't imagine that level of detail would be visible in the movie anyway.

As far as he said is that he didn't finished the model at all.

Hello all,

I had no idea that Ady was building an AT-AT model to film. What is he planning to reshoot?

I know he is building/built a Fine Molds millenium falcon, Asteroid crater, wampa, wampa cave.

Is Ady still building a rebel hanger bay and I think I remember he was planning on building an Imperial Star Destoyer but I think that may have been postponed?

Using an AT-AT model? The final lightsaber duel no doubt ;)

Here's what he's planning with that, Matticon -

adywan said:

It's only going to be used to replace the badly composited AT-AT's & missing ones we see through the front of the speeder cockpit window.

adywan said:

It was a difficult build because the model kit had so many sections that were far from screen accurate, but i think i've got it accurate enough to hold up against the studio models. I've even added a form of mechanism into it so that it will give the impression that it is walking without having to resort to stop motion, which will be good enough for the fleeting moments this model will be seen.

It's really neat to know that even though the AT-AT model replacement is only going to be seen briefly, that the details will be accurate in these shots.  Nice going on that once again adywan, and great preview pics!

As far as other elements being re-built Matticon, in addition to the ones you mentioned, I seem to recall that a replacement 'Shield Generator' and 'inside of Asteroid Slug's mouth' are also being done.  And I also seem to recall that a 'Hoth rebel trench' is being planned too!

There's certainly plenty of neat stuff mounting up to be covered for the behind-the-scenes extras disc. :)

The Asteroid Slug's mouth could use definite improvement, now that you brought that up.

I too recall mention of the shield generator, and the trenches.
The bonus disc is actually what I look foreward too most :)

Why couldn't George Lucas leave the original Star Wars movies along and never make those prequels. That guy looks ugly these days, he's soo fat, what's up with Lucas's neck? Is he trying to become Jabba himself or something?

jodydandyboy said:

After Star Wars Episode One came out, I heard a bunch of pissed off Fans were going to highier a Bounty Hunter to go after Lucas, lol. I wonder what happened to that?

I'm sorry, but what has any of this got to do with my edit? And i really don't like personal attacks on someone appearance like that. say what you will about his creative decisions with all things star wars since the mid 90's, but saying crap like this is just infantile. I'd appreciate it if you kept crap like this out of my thread.

Where did you get this quote from IF? I can't remember ever saying this or that  i was adding a mechanism inside the AT-AT.

Heh, it turns out that you said it back on post 22813 on page 913...only it seems that I forgot something when I quoted it for Matticon, lol...

To Matticon and others - when I earlier quoted what adywan said on page 913 about including a 'mechanism' to give the replacement AT-AT the impression of 'stop-motion'...it seems I totally forgot what date he wrote that, and what photo he'd linked to in that post!

So just to clarify, only the first quote about him making the model to replace the ones seen through the snowpeeder cockpit applies.  Apologies for any confusion.  (Of course, I should have remembered that adywan would probably accept nothing less than actual 'stop-motion' to animate his AT-AT, if he'd been going down that route, lol.)
