I don't know, was there an idea about that?  I don't recall.

He actually runs out of the room in the ROTS videogame, and locks the door behind him. (Which sets up a level where Anakin takes out his shuttle.)

If you don't think the game cutscene video is useable, maybe the audio combined with your usual bag of editorial tricks can keep Nute alive to plague the OT. ;)

Where were you in '77?

If he were a force ghost in the ROT, he could become more powerful than any mathematician could possibly imagine...

You're going to be knee deep in ghosts by the end of Jedi. ;)

I like it, but I can't understand just what Ric's ghost is saying.

 "You catch on too quick."  The idea being that Yoda spoke nonsense and Ani just pretended to understand so he wouldn't look dumb.

Did anyone else have trouble with it?

 That's what I guessed at first, but because of the way it's edited, I thought he either said something else as well or it was a different word. I'll have to listen to it again and report back. It might just be that I was second guessing myself and tricked myself into thinking it was something else...or something. :P

Who did the Spock shot?

Rogue-theX

If you have the later Muppet films, Bobo the Bear might be perfect for Tarrful.

 I don't have them, but might be worth it to get Fozzie to say Yoda.  Nice find!

JEDIT: What is that clip from?

 I don't think I noticed Spock until I watched it a second time. ;)

Pretty sure the muppet clips were made for the internet.

Rick's line was clear to me.

It may be youtube compression, but the way you processed Yoda's dream is really blown out and hard to see. Maybe dial it back a bit? Black and White, or even sepia tone, is another old visual shorthand for someone dreaming/remembering.

 I think it's either youtube or the low bitrate I use for uploading.  The final version should be much clearer.  You'll have to remember to let me know when you watch the workprint. ;-)

I thought it was OK.

I watched the council video again, and I think the reason I wasn't sure if I understood Ric was because the spacing between the words "too" and "quick" is unnaturally long. It also sounds like there's another sound after "too" which tricked my brain into thinking it was a different line.

 I take another look at it.  The "too" is from "Tatooine" so I may have left a little too much of the end on there.

Is the "Groundhog Day" thing going to repeat itself throughout the movie?

LOL! I'm digging the overall arc of Anakin slowly losing his mind. The Awake dialog is a little hard to hear though.

I still think Long Tall Sally should be playing on a radio over the troop transport scene. ;)

 It's meant to be that way.  Maybe I actually need to lower it a bit more.

Tough call. The "slow death" probably should come second.

If you do it a third or fourth time, he should lightsaber the clock radio, or blast it. ;)
