As cool as that Maul fight stuff is, the shots are heavily compressed. And it's not just youtube, as when I went from 360 to 480 it was still pretty bad.

I'm only uploading mp4 video to youtube to save upload time. Have you watched any of the other clips? They should look similar.  The final clips will be lagarith avi.

And what are you doing in the fanedit forum anyway? :p

I just finished reading through the entire thread and I have to say, this is amazing work. Holy shit I laughed so hard so many times over the past 2 days reading and watching all the clips, to the point where my sides were in pain. HUGE PROPS to Frink and everyone else who has contributed, great job and I cannot wait to see the finish movie!

Every year my friends and I have our annual Star Wars Beerfest Marathon and we try to find something funny and unique to do every year. Without a doubt (unless it is not finished in time, though I may postpone the SWBF just for this) this is going to be seen as our opening movie in place of TPM, which will actually be a relief since we dread having to sit thru the prequels (all we do is drink and bash them anyways).

Again, words can't begin to describe how awesome this is. Outstanding work all!!!

One added joke, suggested by Ripplin. It's so....obvious....I can't believe I missed it.

PS: One small suggestion: After Obi Wan's "Take Off" maybe Olie can say "you catch on pretty quick" again.

I like the game of Solitaire idea, but probably not enough to spend time on it.  In all honesty, I'm getting sick of working on this damn thing.  I'd like to be able to release it at some point ;-)

Maybe suggest it again on the next one.

That would fit nicely in AOTC when Obi-Wan goes to the archives looking for Kamino... probably. i havent seen AOTC in years, but if I remember correctly there's a shot of him looking at a monitor, or hologram, no?

How about this?

Believe it or not, I already put that in the edit.

What happened to the R5 unit and the trombone?  I cried laughing.  Leave it out and I'll just cry.

Is there still a link to this?  I don't recall the scene in question.

I think the link is still active but I didn't find it during a brief search.

I have a lot of time on my hands @ work ;-)

Honestly, everything was just too funny to skip ahead, half the hilarity was watching the clips that didn't work or were in their infancy. I can't wait to show this to my buddies @ our next SW marathon next year.

I'm amazed that such bizarre audio splicing and bad dubbing can come out so hilarious!  I think that's half the fun of this edit.

Huge thanks to ThrowgnCpr for some great technical assistance and hebrides for coming up with Qui-Gon's joke before he dies.

Congrats Frink, you earned my "LOL of the Week" with that clip.

Full disclosure - I got the idea of the background noise from Bob Garcia:

That's classic. 

After being directed to them via a thread on the  Star Wars discussion boards it might be amusing to randomly replace some of the actual footage with the equivalent cutscene from the computer game.

I was thinkging that, as long and drawn out as Obi-Wan's flip and slice attack is, that Darth Maul must have cat-nap reflexes to just stand there and let himself be cut in two.

Maybe you should draw it out even more... have Obi-Wan land, then they just stare at each other for a while, then SURPRISE ATTACK!

While I like that idea, I don't think it could be done without a TON of work.  There's only one or two shots of them looking at each other, and it's after Obi's already slashed Maul.  More importantly, there is the "FATALITY" graphic over the shot of Maul looking at Obi, so that would have to be removed...I think it would end up being more work that it would be worth.
