Mielr said: BTW- you said the missing frames from the Wampa scene didn't come from the GOUT, but I'm still unclear as to where you harvested them as I assume they're missing on all post-1997 sources (?)

I'd like to know this as well. Maybe Ady used SE background plate and rotoscoped Luke in from GOUT in the missing frames, like I did it in my ESB using this reconstruction.


No, i only used  the HDSE version to reconstruct the missing frames. No GOUT was used


OK, I'm starting to feel a bit dense now. :-P

Forgive me, bit I still don't understand how the missing frames came from an SE source, if the frames are missing from the SE (unless they're NOT missing in the HD-SE version....?) Or, did you just repeat frames to make up for the missing ones?

I was under the impression that ALL the SE versions (SD and HD) were basically edited the same way and were all missing the same elements.

Maybe Mielr meant the '97 SE not the DVD version.


To be honest, now I don't know which version I was referring to. ;-)
I actually didn't know that there was a difference between the '97 and '04 versions, as I try to avoid both versions.

All I know is that the matte lines of the Rancor's leg were still very evident to me, in whichever version I saw last. This surprised me, because I thought they made a point of fixing that.
