The last Facebook "progress" update was in March.
The last project update (if you don't count the shield generator models being cast for sale to raise funds for Revisited) was on May 24th. People seem to think they are entitled to almost daily updates on this project and I fail to understand where this attitude comes from. This is Ady's hobby....something he does for fun.....not something he owes to anyone.

Stop it right there! Ady said this was releasing way back in 2010 and now it's 4 years later and sequentially every year we've been told it's coming out the following year. And it may be coming out in 2015. So there is no reason that we can't ask for an update after 2 weeks of no updates when the list of things left to fix are monumentally minuscule.

There is no need or obligation on anyone's part to give you an update though.
I understand the frustration but Ady isn't Ebay or Amazon. You haven't ordered something online which has turned up late. He is a chap with a life to lead and guess what...if he updated us all the time we would have no surprises in the final project and he wouldn't have the time to finish it.

I really don't care about getting an update on a regular basis, but I was giving the reason why people are asking for them.

Yes. My interpretation was always that the scanners only extended beyond the surface of the ship, therefore by attaching itself like a limpet to the Star Destroyer's surface, it went unnoticed.
It's pretty damn obvious that it doesn't actually have a cloaking device. If it did, why would it need to attach itself like that at all?
Han knew from experience (or military training?) that those cruisers got a blind spot somewhere, so he tricked them real good ;-)
if such small ships could have cloaking devices, surely Fett would have built one into his ship - but he just flew out of detection range, so no worries there ...

Wow. Your attitude stinks. What's this sense of entitlement you seem to have?
Miniscule? Really? Just off the top of my head he still has 2 miniature sets, Han in Carbonite and the new Wampa to build. Then there's filming and compositing these things and any After Effects tweaks and colour correction to integrate them into the film.
Then he has to rebuild the sound mix from scratch.
He's not making this just for you.

I was talking about an update where it was mentioned how much there was left to do.
I was just curious, this thread hasn't had any meaningful updates in awhile and I just decided to ask how the project is going. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
I totally understand if Ady is too busy to give updates.. and I certainly don't feel entitled to anything. Everyone has a life and I'm not expecting him to post things daily. I think you misunderstood the tone of my post.
I apologize if I offended anyone.

The post was not about me. It was explaining why people would be asking for updates.
And please give me one fucking quote where I said Ady was making this just for me. Just fucking one. Just one...

I'm the one who stated he's not making it just for you. I don't need to quote you because it wasn't you that said it. You're quite right.
I felt the need to state that fact because of your attitude in response to Muddyknees2000. "Stop it right there" and then going on to whine about the release date being pushed back.
It was a reminder that Ady is making it for himself, therefore he can take as long as he needs to. I hope this clarifies things for you.

The only reason I responded with such vigor was because muddyknees threw a jab for no apparent reason; calling us entitled just because we want an update. It's not like mfastx was ranting; he just made an observation that since he comes here for news and he's not getting any it's disappointing. And I defended him. There's nothing more to discuss.
Play nice, people.
Where were you in '77?
He responded to mfastx not you for starters. The way mfastx phrased it did sound like a complaint as if he was owed more updates (whether he intended it to sound like that or not).
Why you should decide to be offended at that point though is a mystery to me.

Because I felt the criticism was unwarranted....And because I was about to ask for an update too.
Asking for updates is one thing. We LOVE that people get as excited about this project as we do. Stating the amount of time since the last update like Ady is late on some sort of update schedule is another matter entirely. Ady doesn't owe anyone an update, no matter how little work you mistakenly think he has left to do. And anyone who says that some members aren't acting entitled is clearly not reading the same forum posts as I am......though thankfully it IS a matter of only a few people needing attitude adjustments.

Just to clarify, the original post I made that started this mess was a sarcastic quip about being disappointed that the posts in this thread were not ESB:R related. The "stating the time since the last update" was in response to someone, and it probably came across worse sounding than I intended it to.
Anyway, I think we're all so eager to get our hands on Revisited that it's "clouding our judgment" so to speak.

Or the amount of topics that are given way too much thought and debate. A 3 page debate on the shots of the Millennium Falcon cockpit. What the ass? >_>
My three-year-old has more patience than some of the people in this thread.

Then there is this photo...You seriously can't be seriously expecting people to take it like a Filipino hooker when we got cock teased like this.... (open photo in new tab. I don't feel like shrinking the fucker.)
You know when posting an image to the forum, you can adjust the size in that little popup window. Just set the width to about 700. No need to ever open up Photoshop or any kind of image editing software.
I'm asking nicely for people to drop the subject, and move along. This isn't a debate thread. If you've got an axe to grind, start a kvetching thread about it in off topic.

What an absolutely vile thing to say. I didn't know it was okay in this forum to make light of the harsh realities that sex work imposes upon those who have little choice in the matter.
Are you one of those folks who enjoys dishing out sex (most likely mixed with violence) to those who most likely do not want it, like it, or who've been enslaved since childhood to receive it? Do you think it's funny?

.......wait a second Ronster,.....don't forget Boba is working for Jabba also,.....he wouldn't consider shooting at the Falcon......one his few lines in the film...."What if he doesn't survive, he's worth a lot to me"
J
I thought Han already had a death warrant out on him and Vaders new Bounty was in conflict with the Jabba Bounty?
Perhaps that is why Vader say "I want them Alive" as he is more than likely had to offer a higher Bounty than Jabba to get what he want's knowing full well if trying to catch them alive was to go wrong the bounty hunters would get paid anyway on the death warrant. So like I said I don't think bounty hunters / assassins / killers have a clean cut job as what may happen can be unpredictable they also have to defend themselves
some folks here need to get a RL - with a hobby, wife, kids ... or just do an edit themselves, to see how much work THAT really is!
so keep cool and enjoy the ride (as long as it takes) ;-)
back on track (hopefully ...)

hm, but Jabba also wanted Solo alive or he would have him executed at the moment Fett brought him back - Greedo was just a little hasty (and had his own grudge with Solo)
not saying, that the other BHs would have tried to take Solo alive (if they knew hew shoots first!) - therefore the "reminder" of Vader is valid for ALL in this group, Fett is just his main man to talk to ...
Water Melons!!
