Absolutely perfect in every way. ALLOL.

And, man, that greenscreen work putting the skinned 3PO in that scene is terrible. I mean, I'm glad there's not a scene with Padme putting the plating on him, but they taught Daniels how to operate the "naked" puppet for nothing.

Couldn't Artoo and Threepio accidentally get married at the same time?

Robot nudity is only funny when Futurama does it. ;)

It was ridiculous for Threepio to be working down on the moisture farm with all his circuitry exposed anyway.

Had another warped idea last night. Every time a limb gets lopped off, we hear Lucas' disturbing laughter faintly in the background. Or maybe a "severed limb-o-meter"?

Pass. Not a fan of that..."movie."

That's too bad, as there's one song that fits Anakin's immolation scene so well, it's scary. But let's not get ahead of things. ;)

Which song is that?

"Superheroes", cued to the point where Anakin catches fire.

Wait, I'm confused... how long has Shmi been gone?

A mon-

 

I see what you did there.

Honestly I had a lot of trouble with that scene.  There isn't much dialogue to work with.

I think that one swirling transition gave me vertigo! ;)

If only there was a way to give the Tuskens mushroom heads now.

"4 of us went out after her.......30 of us came back."

 

F***ING HILARIOUS

 

LMAO - my new favorite ridiculous line.

I found a bunch of goofy new transitions today.

The more goofy transitions the better. They remind me of how many magazine shows went nuts with those effects, when they became available and affordable in the late 80's.

The one I especially loathed at the time folded the image into a paper airplane, which then flew off the screen. It would be laughably dated now.

I hope my comment didn't come off as sounding critical.  I actually think the repeated "she's been gone a month" line is hilarious.

The "four of us went out, thirty of us came back" line would be extra funny if a bunch of people could be composited into the background, just wandering around.

There are a couple similar ones I've got, including where the scene is put into a chest and one where the scene is put into a genie bottle.  Unfortunately, it leaves behind the scene that is currently playing, so I can't get it to look right.

I still need a heart shaped transition for one of the Anakin/Padme scenes.

It didn't, no worries.  I do think I'm gong to remove the last "gone a month" instance because I'm going to cut from Anakin leaving the table to him on his bike with Smooth Criminal playing.

Honestly all I can think of now when I hear that song is Michael and Maeby singing it together. ;-)

Okay, so even if you've been following the thread and watching the clips, you might want to steer clear of this one unless you don't mind a major spoiler that will change the direction of this film, the entire Ridiculous trilogy, and the course of history.

Having said that, I could use some feedback because this was a very difficult scene to put together.  I need to know if it is clear what is happening, if it makes sense, if the audio and video are reasonably smooth, etc. etc.

And now...a brand new opening to AOTR:

No problems I can see or hear. I had a feeling you were going to do that sooner or later though. ;)

No audio problems for me.
