A NEW HOPE
-Insert a faint Imperial March into the 'music-free slot' when Vader looks around the Blockade Runner.
Yeah maybe.
-Clean-up or re-dub both Vader's breathing and dialogue to match the other movies. This really, really bugs me, and is sure to bug me even more when RotS comes out and Vader sounds as clear as ever.
Nah.
-Digitally add the tombstones (from AotC) into the Lars Homestead.
Interesting, but... nah.
-The activation & color of Luke's lightsaber in Ben's House need to be fixed.
Sure.
-Insert The Imperial March into first shot of Death Star.
No way.
-Insert The Imperial March into shot of Death Star after the burning homestead scene, and have it continue on into the interrogation scene.
Hmn... nah.
-Insert a Dug (Sebulba?) into the Cantina; either in the lizardman/wolfman slot or the elephantman/wolfman slot.
Hell no.
-Change arm in Cantina so it has no blood. And make it a hoof to match what we see in the longshots.
Hell no.
-Show Ben's saber tuning on & off; no more of these off-screen sound effects!
Maybe, if they have that alternate shot somewhere...
-HAN SHOOTS FIRST!
OBVIOUSLY
-Insert The Imperial March into the shot of the Death Star after the Cantina.
Nah. Ok maybe... On a second thought, no.
-Change Jabba's voice & appearence to match TPM & RotJ.
OK. why not.
-Insert The Imperial March into the shot of the Death Star over Alderaan.
Hmn... no.
-Following that shot, insert a scene with Bail Organa talking to another Rebel Leader via hologram (Ackbar?), possibly about Leia's dissapearance and the Death Star. Then cut to Tarkin lookiing at Alderaan on the viewscreen.
Hell no.
-Insert a shot of the Death Star blocking out the sun on Alderaan, with Bail Organa and other looking up in horror. Then cut to the activation of the superweapon.
That would be interesting if on the original version, but not now.
-Fix the activation, deactivation, and color of Luke's saber on the Falcon. It's freakin' WHITE!
Yeah ok.
-Change the seeker ball to CG (like in AotC).
No, it's good that way.
-In the scene where the dude comes in and says the Rebels are on Dantooine, change the timing of Vader's line to match his gesture.
Maybe. I'd have to watch that scene again.
-MAYBE insert a scene where Vader reports to the Emperor after detecting Obi-Wan. It makes perfect sense that he would contact Palpatine after storming off ("I sense something, a presence I've not felt since..."). Then have Palpatine tell Vader to be wary and inform Tarkin (He is here...).
HELL NO
-Insert a faint Imperial March when Vader is walking through the Death Star halls.
No way!
-Make the Diaogna look more realistic.
Nah. How? CGI?
-Re-dub all the Stormtrooper lines with Temura Morrrison. This goes for the whole trilogy, including Boba.
I'd say no, but...
-Improve the Vader/Kenobi duel. Some dramatic music (possibly the same from their SW3 duel?) would be nice. Also, fix saber effects (both optical and audio) so they match the other films. The saber effetcs are really bad, and the sounds of this duel are WAY different from the others.
Only if this was featured on the original trilogy, then it would kick ass. But not now...
-Change the gunport sequence; possibly more TIEs or have the Falcon be moving (I always thought this sequence was boring).
Maybe.
-Show the Falcon going to hyperspace before Vader says, "They've just made the jump into hyperspace."
Maybe.
-Change Death Star plans in Rebel Breifing to match the ones in AotC.
Uh... no
-Update the graphics on the Death Star.
How?
-Change a couple of the explosions on the Death Star; some of them still look not-so-good. (Other than that I think the space battle looks great. It's amazing how good CGI can be when time and effort is put into it.)
HELL NO
-Insert a scene where Vader goes to Coruscant to report to Palpatine, like Dooku does in AotC. This would take place between Luke's landing the awards ceremony. On a landing pad at the Imperial Palace, the Sith Lords would discuss the death of Obi-Wan, the destruction of the Death Star, and the rise of a new enemy, Luke Skywalker. The ESB conversation would have be altered to go along with this one.
That would be VERY nice if featured on the original film. But not now.
THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK
-Fix the Taun-Taun effects. Some are good, but others need improvement.
Well, there were some limitations on the stop-motion. So yeah, I kinda agree on that one, sort of. As long as the originals are preserved!
-After Luke cuts the Wampa's arm off, there's a lightsaber deactivation noise, but Luke's saber stays on; have it turn off.
I'd have to watch that again. If you're right, ok.
-Add a few more AT-STs to the Battle of Hoth (to sort of establish them for RotJ).
Nah. It's fine the way it is.
-MAYBE add more Snowtrooper/Rebel soldier fighting into the Battle of Hoth.
Maybe.
-Add a few more background monsters to Dagobah; "Massive lifeforms readings...".
No way! Are you nuts?!
-Change Luke's line back to "You're lucky you don't taste very good."
No way. I like "you're lucky to get out of there" better. Only thing about the special edition I really agree to be better.
-In the scene where you see Vader's head, make it so he's watching a hologram of Padme. Audio would be the best way to do this, since you can't really see into Vader's chamber. I'm hoping she sends him a goodbye letter of sorts in RotS, and this could be used here and in RotJ.
HELL NO!!! DON'T YOU EVER SUGGEST THAT AGAIN!!
-Change the Emperor to Ian McDiarmid. Change the music to Sith Chants/Emperor's Theme. Change the dialogue if to fit with a new ANH scene.
I'd say no, but... seems to be it's too late.
-Again. re-dub all the Stormtrooper and Boba Fett lines with Temura Morrison.
Same as above.
-Update ALL the windows on Cloud City. The SE is inconsistent; in one shot a window is updated, but in another, it's not.
OK.
-Add more training on Dagobah, IF IT WILL FIT. Jumping, lightsaber skills, etc.
If it was featured on the original trilogy, yeah, that would be great! But not now. Too late.
-Take out the Emperor's scream as Luke falls. Very funny Ben Burt, now let's change it back please.
Yes.
-Have the Falcon fight some TIEs as it escapes Cloud City ("What about those fighters?").
Uh... no!
-Change Vader's line back to "Bring my shuttle", and take out all the new SE stuff. It's totally useless and interrupts the flow Luke's rescue.
Don't care about that line really. So... ok.
-Flip the reverse frames when Vader & Piett talk about capturing the Falcon back to normal. I have no idea why they did this, but the Imperial uniforms make it obvious.
Yes. Sure.
RETURN OF THE JEDI
-Add some PT aliens to Jabba's Palace.
Oh hell no.
-Do something about the dance number in Jabba's Palace. The CG really sticks out, so either re-do it or change it back to the original.
Agree.
-Change some of Boush's lines so "Yoto" doesn't mean everything.
Hehehehe ok.
-Take out the *BURP* of the big frog. It can still eat the lizard though.
Gotta listen to that again, so I can decide.
-The compositing of the Rancor is HORRIBLE! The creature itself looks okay, but when it interacts with Luke, it needs a big upgrade. Don't totally replace it with CG though, just fix the compositing.
Hmn... I really don't know!
-MAYBE extend the Boba/Luke confrontation (with a couple of stunt doubles).
If it was on the original trilogy,
