STAR WARS: EP V "REVISITED EDITION"ADYWAN - 12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW — Page 391

I like em.

i understand wat janskeet is getting at, i've always found them to be weird also, because it looks like nobody ever goes down there. of course, cloud city was being evacuated, but seriously, why worry about turning off the lights when u hear the empire's taking control of the city.

I don't like these sets. They look cool but there is no logic to them. It looks like George Lucas was torn between making a set that is the interior of the death star or the interior of cloud city. I don't understand the logic of this set at all. I've seen some Fan fiction and star wars books that show the analogy of these sets, but I'm not buying them.

This one looks too much like the window in ROTJ. Is there suppose to be some symbolism between this window and the ROTJ throne room window or is this just a case of George Lucas over indulging in his obsessive compulsions?

 

And...

Added to the Ignore list.  This is all nonsense.

Uh... can you explain what you mean by "there is no logic" to these sets?  What, exactly, is illogical about them?

Also, you might want to verify the definition of "analogy".

I must point out that the only similarity these two windows share is that they're round:

 

Well, they're not exactly the same, but they are close enough. When I see the ESB window I think of the ROTJ window. I thought there was suppose to be some symbolism to that. I don't like to think that the window in ESB is just some random window.

Somebody pm Sluggo to give me a second chance?

Reminds me of a Tie Fighter's front window too, I love the web like theme.

And that is why I think it doesn't belong in cloud city. It looks too empirish. I am kind of suggesting Adywan to change that window, but to what, I'm not sure.

No need too, just because there are some similarities doesn't mean get rid of all of them.

I just put a muzzle on myself.

 I like the window behind the Emperor. Like a spider in the center of its web.

Oh then you should know. I thought that shot looked better than ever.

It does as I indicated in my posting but those observations are still true even in Ady's greatly improved version.

The far wall still looks like an interior wall and not really like an exterior one and there isn't much (other than tinkering with it's reflective properties) that can be done about it.

It was designed to be inside and in the SE it was turned into an exterior wall, Lucas's first attempt had the silly low railing and the see through shadows (which Ady has skillfully fixed) but it also reflected the tint on the far wall which Ady's version doesn't do so much (sure the sky is different and much better) but perhaps a little tweak would turn an already better version into an even better one.

But there is only so much that can be done with the set as it originally was.

 

I say so what if it leads to an interior wall. Who's to say it can't be designed that way in Cloud City?

 

You still seem to misunderstand me.

The wall looks like it's inside a building, partly because it resembles more the interior architecture of the place more than the exterior (a throw back to the fact it was initially designed that way, which would be almost impossible to rectify) but to some extent because of the interaction between the outside environment (the light intensity and colour of the sky line, which is possible to rectify if Ady wants to).

A white semi glossy surface would reflect back more of the colour and light of the surrounding environment than an interior wall would because it is closer to the exterior elements.

Ady has already done a lot of work on that scene and he would be well within his rights to say enough is enough and I'm happy with that if that is the case.

As for the sets around the pit I have no problem with them, they look great and they belong to a different kind of area to the rest of the city.

If you were to go to a power plant near Florence I'm sure the interior architecture would be very different from civic buildings (even new ones).

It's an industrial area (much like the freezing chamber) so it's bound to look different (the curves of the vanes however do carry some of the design ethic of the upper levels down to the lower areas but that may be just as much functional as aesthetic).

okay, i just typed everything that bingo just did, then read his post, so in he interest of saving space ill just agree with everything he said.

i have rectangular windows (UK) i should imagine vaderios does (GRE) and so do all the other memebers on the board. not exactly a statement on our cultural differences/similariites.

i see the deathstariness of the interior just shows that its practical and not pretty.

the only style of window it should be changed to is corellians version.;)

This is an incredible re-scoring and subtle edit of the Mace-Sidious duel. I know its un-related to Ady's TESB project, but it does show how much the music editing affects the scene:
