Yes, he is Windusplaining
Macesplaining works too 😉
I think it’s been suggested previously on the PT Redux thread that the duel could be radically recut so that Obi-Wan faces Dooku alone. Then, Anakin arrives and runs or jumps toward Duke Dooku as he’s about to kill Kenobi. Then you get rid of that whole “go slowly on the left”.
Yes, that’s my plan (hate that “go in slowly on the left” line). I think the issue has always been HOW to get the 2 Jedi coming in at different times? Because they both come in from the same republic gunship thingy. Well, I think I’ve found something that might work…it’ll just require more fx work. By-the-way, anyone interested in helping with fx work? I’m still learning in this arena but I know I’ll only get so good.
I would want to get rid of Yoda with the lightsaber, maybe even dueling with the Force, because I just think Kenobi and Anakin look weak just lying there, but then you might not have a lot of footage left. I think I’ve actually seen a clip of someone on this forum making it look Dooku throws a cylinder toward Anakin and used the shot of Anakin getting hit by Force lightning and placing the cylinder over the lightning.
Yes I’ve seen the cylinder being thrown at Anakin and that works pretty well. In fact, there was an earlier version of this done by Trooperman in his Shroud of the Darkside edit. I-…well…hmm…I hate to give too much away…but let’s just say I’ve got some plans!
If you want to keep Yoda and Dooku throwing things, perhaps you could have them thrash talking eachother, and then Dooku says something like “It is obvious that this contest can only be decided by our skills with the Force”. And then they start to throw things.
Yeah, I think most fans would agree that the force dueling is the best part of that confrontation.
I’ve actually tried switching that particular line around like you’ve suggested. I have something that almost works…I might post it someday.
Perhaps impossible, but I’ve seen something called wav2lip where you could lipsync new lines. If memory serves me right, the resolution is low, but you can improve it with deepfakes.
Hmm…I didn’t know you could improve it with, say, DeepFaceLabs. Anyone here on the forums gotten any good with DeepFaceLabs? First, my computer can’t really handle it well. Second, when I’ve attempted it in the past, I didn’t know how to refine it for getting a better result. Even with the tutorials out there, they don’t explain it well enough (for me) to get better results.
Thanks for chatting and sharing ideas, Pagan Editor!
