I honestly love this film because it has it all but…
I have a few beefs to do with scenes being shuffled about and/or missing shots that complete the sequence. Basically anything that was re-arranged in a nonsense way bugs the hell out of me of what might have been… But I still adore it. The problem I think stems from because it was workprinted, edited and locked (Just like Star Wars) then somehow became unlocked and re-edited and had more music made and then they ran out of time / money released the 70mm… Then slightly edited the 35mm release but I want to see the first edit and the workprint versions of the film.
Something I was meaning to do for quite some time was try to figure out the workprint scene order for Lando, Leia, Chewie, C3-PO and R2-D2 on cloud city. Or something that flows much better…I doubt I will ever get it right (God help me!) I have been trying to figure it out for around 2 years now… I know I will never get it right but I keep going back and trying, and I had another go at it last night. I got closer but I am still a way off.
Here is where I am currently at…
It’s not right and It probably never will be but it’s more right than what is in the film. It’s also an edit of sorts but really I should be using only gout footage.
If you notice R2-D2 smoking while he is trying to open the door that was an outtake from when he electrocuted himself edited in for his lines so it has to stay in the part it is although it’s not really meant to go there.
