i'm going to maybe add a faint saber glow on lukes face only in a couple of closeups. the whole glow issue seems to have been overdone a bit in the PT but the bit where they swing the sabers around their heads in AOTC is going anyway so the other glows are so quick you hardly notice them anyway

oh sweet so you are going to use my example?

but the trailer will be coming out on the 21st may to mark the greatest star wars movie and not the 19th so not a  bloody phatman menace celebration. lol

i just can't wait to get my hands on those PT moies so i can rip them to shreds.

HAHAHAHA

(can you tell i'm buzzing my tits off on painkillers at the moment? I cracked my whole canine tooth off and no chance of getting to a dentist anytime soon and the hsopital won't touch any dental work unless refered to them by a dentist. catch 22. thanks you the UK government for making our NHS so crap)

Sorry about that painkillers, Ady.

I admit that the OT has a better plot than the PT.  I have a saying, "Special effects don't make a good movie.  They only make a movie look good."  But I wouldn't suggest "ripping them to shreds."  The PT has some good plot points.  Like Palpatine's rise from a Senator to Emperor and how he manipulates every event that leads to the rise of the Galactic Empire.

R2's jets are also going in the PT so they won't be added in the OT. I hate all the bloody EU explanations for everything which is why all that crap is staying out of Revisited.

The rotating room is an interesting idea but just wouldn't work. i've been looking over that scene again and the scale of things is all messed up. the cloud car is too big when it reaches the building. either that or the lift on the side of the building is for midgets only. maybe it was the ugnaught only lift. lol. it does need a new matte. i was thinking about shrinking the window a bit but leia needs to be the focal point of that shot so that may not work. plus the window needs to be higher up on the building because the interior ceiling is too low down. Is it worth all the extra work to try and sort out the continuity mess though? i'm not so sure at the moment.

i won't be changing the way the xwing sets down on dagobah when yoda lifts it out the water. i've never had a problem with that scene.

only one month left til may! :)

 

Yep. It'll mark the tenth anniversary of The Phantom Menace.

now i just want to crawl up and die. lol. i just didn't want to be reminded of that movie. that marked the year i first hated a star wars movie.

 

The duels were short in AOTC and you are cutting them further? But who knows, we'll wait and see how it turns out! Were are probably at least 5 years from AOTC REVISITED being done.

True...

YAY Ten years since we got new Star Wars films, YAY!!

 

I agree. I dont know why so many people are down on the PT but I loved them. Better than living with the same 3 movies your entire life.

True, I love all 6 of the films despite the fact I don't like everything in them.

If you don't like it, don't watch them, Dangerous Incorporated.

That's actually the smartest thing anyone has every said around here.  "If you don't like them, then don't watch them."  It's as simple as that.

I don't mind the prequels, and I like all six of the films as they are.

Sorry to hear about the tooth incident, Ady. I'm actually in the process of letting the hole heal up where a molar was extracted around a month ago. The tooth was broken (for a long time), but then got infected. That is a whole different kind of pain! The morning I picked up the antibiotics, I felt like just crying right there in the pharmacy. Oh, and I had to wait nine days before it could get pulled! Fortunately, it only took around five of those days for the antibiotics to kill the infection. :p

Anyway, I can't wait to see what you do with the PT. I'd almost prefer you start on TPM rather than Jedi once ESB is done. (I know I'm talking long term, but y'know...) As radical as some of the TPM edits have been, they haven't had the Adywan form of radicalness applied, and that's just massively intriguing.

But Ady needs to wait to do TPM because of the CG Yoda that was added to TPM that has yet to be released, if he goes ahead and does ROTJ revisited it will be the end of 2011 when he's done with it at the earliest. I am betting we see all the movies released on blu ray by the end of 2011, including the TPM with CG Yoda.

That part is at least cute in its misguided nature. The part where he makes the indirect accusation that Adywan is "sabotaging" the PT is what's laughably stupid.

I see.  Well, I wouldn't go as far to say that he's "sabotaging" them.  That's a little too strong of a term.

If he doesn't like them, why touch them?

Because he sees the potential there to make something decent, via hard work in editing.

"It's not that hard a concept to grasp"

Not at the expense of damaging the movie though.

 

No offense, but I don't think that he could actually damage the movie.

And like you said, he's edits of the PT are a long way off.
