Ronster, I personally feel that your ideas are interesting, but I think you may be overreaching at this point. I feel we should start with a more grounded edit first, stick largely faithful to the original story, and as was pointed out before, we have easily accessible building blocks for future edits. I think ROTJ has many good elements already existing, and that some minor alterations could go a long way to drastically improve the story. Many of your ideas can be used, but I hope I don't offend you when I say that currently I'm thinking of more basic changes.
That said, I have some good news. Though more elaborate, I already had a good idea of how I want the final act of the story to move, but was stuck on the first act. It's really far less complex, but I was having some writer's block as how we should provide the opening crawl and several scenes. I had some great ideas that I think could start the movie slightly slower, but then provide fewer moments of slow exposition towards the middle, moving the plot faster overall. I intend to post the first portion of the script today with some commentary on why I changed certain things, plus a few minor special effects and musical suggestions.
Speaking of those sorts of things, while I intend to make suggestions, I don't want to include everything in the script. I want to leave that to our CGI wizards and suggest that they refer to the wishlist for most ideas. While I do include a few because I feel strongly about them and no other reason, most I include simply because they may be essential for plot changes.
I'll try to get that first part of the script up today :)
Did you check the link? I can see that you did not.... If you are going to palm me off before even looking as I have given you the courtesy of then yes I would consider that rude considering it is meant to be a collaboration and that I have made an effort to include your ideas and other peoples, The 1st Act is the Hard part IMO
Please do get your script up... I am not trying to get in before you or anything it is fair to show you then you show me? And go from there
I honestly am not trying to overreach here, I had some Inspiration last night and thought I would share it, I had a big night out on Saturday, christmas party and was hungover and could not sleep last night, so thought I would focus on somthing that does not mean anyone has to agree with anything I do or say, or even consider using my ideas I already told you this
mabey you would even enjoy what i did or it might inspire you... ever thought of that.
If it is not a collaboration then you should probably change the title of the thread
