why do them CGI - get out into the yard and catch some bugs and put em on film ;-)

Lol.

Yeah the bugs idea of course shouldn't be at the top of the to-do list, but hopefully it's worthwhile enough for Ady to give it a try some time.

That is a brilliant idea Matticon, to add a few bugs occasionally flying around the lantern that's charging R2.

I think that's the best approach too, to mainly add fly-sized (or smaller) bugs flying quickly in and out of shots (and most of the time out of focus). You wouldn't be able to see them too clearly, but that's the idea. It should be randomly and also sparingly when you see them, so that it'd feel natural enough and not be distracting from any scene.

Because of their such small size, they wouldn't have to be sophisticated looking - your eyes would/should only see them as black dots, at least for the daytime shots; maybe in the darker shots, some could have a subtle neon-green glow (sort of like fire flies)?

It'd also be nice to occasionally see some creepy insects around on the ground too, but these might be best mainly in the darker areas, namely the cave sequence.

Anyhow, if attempted, these subtle additions would certainly add more "outdoor realism" to this wild, swampy environment.

Edit:

Matticon's, aalenfae's, and Bingowing's last posts beat me to the point about the bugs only needing to be indiscernible dots.

Ady is still set on killing off Lando? I was hopeful he'd change his mind about this :( Something as controversial as this, may it be possible to have two versions? Lol, the Lando dies version and the Lando lives version XD (or seamless branching?) I for one am looking forward to Episode VII, and I would love to be able to watch Revisited 1 - 6 and then 7 (I'm sure they'll include him for 7)

Well Adywan's made it perfectly clear he considers the revisited saga just to be six film saga, since certain elements he intends to remove/alter in the prequels are more than likely going to be present in the sequel trilogy.
