As much as I love Adywan's versions, I know I still enjoy watching the OUT (even if Lucas doesn't want me to!)...and I would certainly hope everyone here could say that. ;)

Sadly, the OUT isn't a part of the "Official Saga", so the "Official Saga" can still die. :-D

^Yeah, but no one cares what LFL says, right? ;)

I know this has been beaten to death, but wouldn't it be easier just to remove the horns from the later "inside the cave" shot
and have the wampa keep the 1st image appearance?  Those horns just don't work!

Removing the horns from the later Wampa is not something i want to do. The wampa has always had horns and to me it should do. The horns in the clip you posted screenshots from was in HD and therefore hard to use an SD image to look any good at that res. It was also only a WIP. I might even build a new Wampa head for those shots anyway. It might be easier. lol

 

PLEASE don't do a new head!  If the first shot has to have horns, that's perfectly okay, just please keep that first shot.

...it still amuses me to see how everyone always works to make peace with the hardcore purists. Not a bad thing by any means, just entertaining. :D

How is everyone working to make peace with hardcore purists here?

So, it's completely understandable Adywan if you don't care to influence your edits with these new stories, but don't miss them yourself as a Star Wars fan.

No, i just mean that the EU doesn't exist purely for the Revisited edits.  I've always been interested in all things outside of the movies and i'm quite enjoying the clone wars tv series (apart from the bloody jar-jar episode) even though i hated the movie and will never watch that ever again

Well the shot would be recreated as close to the original as possible if i did do a new head. It would just be a way to make the wampa look more uniform and would look much better than adding horns digitally

Really? I thought the movie was the basically the first episode[s] of the series. I guess not. Maybe I should look into this series if you like it... I haven't watched a second of it yet.

Sorry I don't think I could help with models or puppets — my experience is largely confined to LEGO. But the news is good to hear. You're taking this far more seriously than is healthy. :D

But *puts hand up for any voice or live acting if and when you need it for the PT*.

Wow, that sight seven posted is pretty cool. I'd love to do that kind of stuff.

Yeah, there is a "snow creature" head about half way down this page, http://www.tomspinadesigns.com/Sculpture.html

It is right next to a few other Star Wars characters, they don't call it a wampa, obviously they seem to stick to generic names, but it is obviously a wampa, but I think even Ady's wampa with the CG horns looks considerably better than this one. This guy just doesn't quite look right.

Scroll down to the very bottom of the page, and there is a mounted Tauntaun head, LOL, how awesome would it be to have that hanging on the wall in your home! Be quite a conversation piece. If I were a multi millionaire, I'd be commissioning guys like this to build me all sorts of crazy stuff.

"it is as though the star wars story has been edited together from the evidence of many different sources that don't all agree with each other

ladies and gentleman of the jury, you must decide for yourself the truth, based on the evidence presented before you"

Rather like Christianity

Or any religion or mythology for that matter. That's why I actually don't mind it being a little contradictory or illogical — that's what real myths are like.

Ady, I can't remember if you have given a definitive answer on the Vader helmet wobble. I must say that I've never really noticed it before. (I'm not that great at noticing such things) I kinda think it probably shouldn't wobble, seeing as it's supposed to be tightly secured to the rest of the helmet.

So does the fact were all sitting here debating exactly how it all should have/"did" happen just make us a bunch of Star Wars Jehovah's Witnesses?

Maybe you could say that. Although we recognise that every version is just as valid as ours, that is there are as many "canons" as there are viewers — we just think ours is *better* :p.

How about this:

When we see the Bounty hunter on the bridge, perhaps they can be articulated abit? slight augments to their heads/arms and legs ?

They could look so much better if they reacted more to Vader and what was happening around them, like being more alive and alert.

I'm sure someone has no doubt posted it already, but here is another link to check out:
