I had it on my PVR until very recently. Actually it's a half decent fun look at the films with some UK stars imparting their views and experiences of the trilogies. It also showed some rare and interesting vintage toy footage.

Check your PMs.

I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.

Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

still waiting for mine to come in the mail, ESB classic edition, and I can't wait to sit down and watch it.

"The Super 8mm abridged version has different takes of Luke talking to Han whilst astride his tauntaun, and Han saying 'watch this' as he tries to jump to hyperspace in the asteriod field. Although the dialogue hasn't changed different emphasis are put on certain words."

Well I have managed to get hold of part 1 of the Super 8mm Selected Scenes film of ESB. I have a projector on the way. Perhaps I can now clear up the rumor that there are different takes on there.

EDIT: Bugger! I have just realised that Segaflip is already looking into transfering the super 8 films!

I talked to the guy who had all those materials for trade that I listed. At the moment I can't get anything from him, and I won't be able to do any further trades for a month or so, so I'll guess you'll have to complete this project without them.

Klokwerk,

Shame. Thanks for trying. However it's not as if I don't have enough material already! All of you guys have been very generous and helpful.

Thanks oojason, we are loving being parents. Wow - doesn't it consume your time though!

So, is anyone out there willing to make a DVD cover for my project. I do have some photoshop skills but seeing that I am struggling to find the time to get the project finished, I wondered if you nice chaps could help me out (again!).

As Building Emprie was inspired by Deleted Magic I guess it should look similar in design - they are cousins of sorts.

Cheers

I'd PM Coov. Seeing as he created some of the coolest Deleted Magic covers, I'm sure he'd be able to create something special for "Building Empire".

Thanks for the cover design offer - that would be great.

Okay so the project is nearly done! I know I've said that before, but this thing just keeps on growing!!

Just compare this picture to the one at the start of this thread and see how many more edits there are now.

Gonna send me a pre-release version for early comments/review? =D

Okay I've just received the ESB Super 8mm part 1 reel and my Super 8mm projector throught the post.

After taking a look at the reel I can conclusively say that there are some differences in this cut of the film. Obviously it is in a condensed form, but there are definately some different visual and audio takes used. I count at least four so far.

So, now I need to get hold of part 2 (I've been outbid on two already - grr!). And I need to find a relatively cheap way of getting them telecined.

The search continues.

There are lots of different takes on the Story of Empire Strikes Back album, but you probably already knew that. It's fun to sync them to the picture and try and use them.

I did already know that yeah. However, I have long since had the LP in my possession. It may be in my parents loft but that's all such a long way from here.

I think I have "Rebel Mission on Ord Mantell" which is a 'Story LP' (in mp3) but I don't have the official 'Story of ...' LPs. Just wanted to ask a quick question (which might be stupid, but anyway) you have incorporated stuff from the Audio Dramas haven't you? Not only the Audio Drama of ESB but the special feature type extras that differ from set to set.

My guess is not, because ..

Only the radio drama of the first Star Wars actually includes any lines or scenes deleted from the original film.

Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi were written without any recourse to the original scripts, or deleted scenes, or anything, and are just expanded versions of the films. (Jedi not even much expanded.)

Therefore, it would be pointless to include anything from the radio dramas for Empire and Jedi.

However, from the first Star Wars, a couple of lines have proved very useful to deleted scene reconstructionists ...

Taking a look at the set of the audio dramas that I have, I can see that you're right. Everything is focused on Star Wars. Oh well.

You are quite right ocpmovie, I haven't used any of the ESB Radio Drama. Like you say, it doesn't include any deleted lines.

There are however some sequences that 'point' to the 4th Draft of ESB but are certainly not useable in this project. An example would be the lines where Luke talks to himself whilst hanging in the Wampa cave. The 4th Draft has lines for Luke "Relax, Relax". The audio drama uses simmilar dialogue, but purely out of necessity rather than to integrate scenes missing from the Motion Picture.

Jambe I have the story of empire rip in mp3, but I live in the united states and have no way of uploading it.

I could rip it to cd and mail it to you but would'nt that take too much time and be costly?

the guy who sold it to me probalbly got it off the torrents newsgroups anyway.

I got the empire read along from 1980 as well.

The quality of all the lp rips online is very low, maybe you should consider doing a fresh rip from the record?
