Sorry Muddy,....no burst bubbles, its just at the beginning of your debate you seem to use ROTJ insight

I never had a problem with that. I always took that line to mean that, while she WAS using Luke to try and make Han jealous, she was also testing to see if kissing Luke DID in fact feel as wrong as she thought it would. Not so much a kissing of literal siblings, but more of a "Yup, that FELT like kissing my brother". And it was only in hindsight that Leia said to herself "oh THAT'S why it felt like kissing my brother".

 No problem.....

That's taken way out of context. That's a discussion about how I view the line in ROTJ, not a discussion about how I view the kissing scene in ESB. Again, wrong film.

 The quote that you're using to try and catch me in a contradiction that I never made was from a discussion about a line in ROTJ. I used ESB to back up something I was saying about ROTJ......NOT the other way around as you're mistakenly insinuating.

 Yeah, kiddy play time is over. If you can't follow along with discussions that you yourself started then maybe you should just play with your toys while the adults talk and stop wasting everyone's time. You feebly tried to catch me in a contradiction but you were in over your head and now can only offer up childish retorts to try and make it look like I'm jabbering nonsense. 

Apologies to all for this horrible derailment.

Is there really any need for this abuse?

.....get out of bed the wrong side?

Sorry to post on your thread Muddy

Actually nothing to do with getting out of bed on the wrong side, Jaitea, and it certainly isn't abuse. You came in and accused him of using ROTJ insight to justify things as he watches ESB, when he did nothing of the sort. In fact, it's only the "eww incest" crowd that do that, as they're watching the ESB kiss with ROTJ knowledge in mind......and taking the "always known" line rather too literally, I might add.

Muddy was justifying the ROTJ line with ROTJ logic. Nowhere is it even implied he is justifying ESB scenes using ROTJ. We can of course refer back to prior events whilst discussing that scene from ROTJ. You pretty much have to when the discussion is revolving around other people making out Leia is an incestuous freak solely due to that "always known" line. Your reasoning just makes no sense, Jaitea.

When the kissing scene has been brought up by both of us, it's only been because we've had to point it out to other people making it an issue based on future knowledge! Exactly what you're accusing muddy of doing, in fact. All he and I have done is just say "no guys, Leia ain't freaky in ESB. She didn't literally KNOW", and as an aside, "there was never any passion in that kiss anyway. It was always kind of awkward, not at all like the one she has with Han later on. The kiss with Luke was clearly to annoy Han all along. This was obvious even back in 1980."

You get the idea.

I was done with this convo, and was just going to leave you blissfully unaware that you'd misunderstood...pretty much everything in this exchange. But then you had the nerve to try and turn it around with the sophistication of an 8 year old child saying "whatever".

Something I think ROTJ (would) benefits from is removing the whole Jealousy of Han... Let's face it, Leia frees him from Carbonite tells him she loves him and put's her own life in grave danger to get her man back. Han continuing to question weather or not she still fancies Luke is a drag and diminishes what we have seen previously.

 I slightly altered your first line, but I don't think I changed your meaning and
I couldn't agree more! In ESB we watch Han and Leia fall in love and even express such feelings to each other. That building relationship takes up most of the film! Han being openly jealous doesn't fit his character and it undermines everything they went through in the previous film and even the opening scenes of ROTJ. It's a bigger insult than Alien3 killing off Newt and What's-His-Face in the opening scene.

JEDIT: I realize that this is off-topic. I'll re-post in the ROTJ Wishlist thread...

Han should be jealous in ROTJ - it's actually a part of his character arc.  He goes from acting like a tough mother I-don't-care attitude to actually wanting to settle down with a lady and talk about his feelings...

Most guys that act tough do so out of low self-esteem in the first place - he's only showing that he's able to deal with his feelings and take the high road "I won't stand in the way" instead of the typical tough-guy "Meh, I didn't care about you anyway..."

By being jealous, it shows he's matured...  As odd as that sounds...

 lol :)

Something I wanted to give a brief heads up on. In the scene where Han goes to get Leia from the command center in ESB on Hoth there seems to be some radio background sound missing from the special edition that is present in the Gout mix just before cutting to the retreat (next scene).

Is there anywhere a full list of audio differences in the 8mm audio mix?

I would be careful about making personal insults outside the off topic area. The moderators take that sort of thing seriously.

I'm not sure where the insult is there.....least of all a personal one. It looked to me more like an observation of his lack of any valid point to make, coupled with the bad attitude when called out on that fact. How is that a personal insult?

 To be honest here, it's one thing when people come into the forum and make suggestions for the edit that are so far from being logical from a technical standpoint that it is just preposterous. At least it is still on topic.

It's something else when people start trying to one-up each other, and then either start being rude as hell, or they start to talk down to each other in an obnoxious, condescending manner. There are quite a few people who are regulars on these forums that do this, and I doubt most of them would ever care to admit it.

I hate to say it, but it happens a bit too often, and I wish it was regulated better. I do enjoy visiting the many threads, especially this one, but there are days when people really go out of their way to show their ugly side. I realize this is not new, being the internet and all, but it's still a shame, regardless.

I hope all this nonsense will just stop, and people can be a bit more mature about how they handle these conversations. If you've read all this, thank you for your time.

My warning comes from the numerous references to objects of childhood in relation to his assessment of what was said which could be construed as a personal insult.

There are clear guidelines to this sort of thing which bind all of us.

Real looking Flames / small explosion when Dak gets hit? It is very brief but it sticks out bad, nasty coloration...

Any half decent free youtube explosion would be an improvement on the effect out the window I think... Has it been altered already?

Either image is lacking some of the ambiance necessary for such an explosion even at a distance.

There isn't enough glow, it looks what it is, an explosion composited onto an image with totally different lighting conditions.

Like an orangey sticker on the sky.

Well i have been trying to go back to answer some of the questions posted a while ago, but so much ha been going on since then and clogging up the thread i've lost track of what i have and haven't replied to or ones that others have given the answer to. So, if you are awaiting an answer from me about something, would it be possible for you to repost the questions? Imperial fighter, i know you are one person who i never got around to answering.

To bring this up again, I'm wondering about the logic behind making the Falcon's shadow on the asteroid into a soft circle. Here is a still of when the Falcon is about to enter the asteroid cave, and as you can see, the shadow is pretty detailed. Detail can be seen in many shadows of rocks and such throughout the scene as well.

Sorry for such a low res image, but it's the best I could pull up at the moment.

The snowflake should not be kissing Chewie's foot, I think we can all agree how disgusting that is.

It wasn't made into a soft circle. The shadow should not be a sharp as seen in that picture you posted. I just softened the edges to make it look less animated and more natural. The first shadow when they are flying over the asteroid surface would also not be detailed. In fact the shape of the falcon would pretty much be as it is given the fact that it's such an uneven surface. If it was flat then the shadow would be more defined, but it isn't. Look at the pic you posted and compare the falcons shadow to every other shadow. That sticks out like a ore thumb as it is too sharp

Hey Ady, speaking of that canyon chase clip. What are your thoughts on adding an extra few lasers from the Ties as the angle changes.  I mentioned it a while back but it got lost in space & time.

The shot i mean is, we have the ties about to enter the canyon, firig at the falcon (behind shot) But then as soon as it switches angle to your new canyon as the falcon enters, they stopped firing. (this was in the original too) I always found it a bit jarring.

Any chance you would be adding a shot or two? maybe even ricocheting off the falcons hull, loosening a boulder from canyon wall, which could be what causes the two ties to crash? Would be a simple addition i reckon.

Also, on page 1223 of this thread (before it got derailed again) some folks had interesting ideas/mock ups about the large asteroid not being big enough when first spotted. ;-)

I've added a few lasers as they enter the canyon so the two shots blend in better than it did originally. I've also tweaked the canyon quite a bit since the clip was shown.

i think the asteroid shot is fine the way it is. There are slight time jumps throughout the trilogy.  I really don't understand why that shot would be a problem. I've never heard anyone complain about that shot since the film came out.

one thing i do have to say though is that it isn't worth coming up with any more suggestions for changes. The edit is locked down now. All that is left to do is finishing adding the models. No more changes or enhancements will be made apart from what is left to do.
