Sorry, I don't think that is a good idea.

Remember that after Luke gets away from being frozen in carbonite, the battle moves around the dark places near the base of Cloud City. This ultimately culminates in Luke's arm getting cut off and him falling to the weather antennae on the underbelly of the structure- Not the underbelly of the Executer.  

And guys, I don't think Janskeet is trying to troll. I think he is a bit immature is all.

I just got back from playing tennis, Adywan still hasn't replied, I hope this doesn't mean I'm on his ignore list now.

The background would need an overhaul, the background would have to be repainted to look like the belly of the Executor, but I think Adywan has the skills to make it happen.

Thank you. I'm really not trying, my texting and messages seem to personify that image though. I knew asking Adywan about the credits would be a mistake. The fact that I was already walking on thin ice and then ask that really gives me the image of a sock, but I'm not. I wish I didn't fit the profile of a troll who used lurk around here.

Why do you want that? That is unnecessary in every sense of the word!

I've previously only posted on the Prequel Radical Redux Ideas Thread (there's a mouthful) as I've been confident that anything Adywan does with the OT will be for the better, but I feel compelled to post here just to tell you that this project is looking excellent! I wish I could contribute in some way in terms of ideas, but it would be quite superfluous. Empire is in capable hands indeed.

Also, Ady. In regards to your Falcon model kit going missing (glad to hear you've had a replacement by the way), and Paypal finding in favour of the seller, I've always been under the impression that Paypal seller protection requires that the seller provide not just proof that the item has been posted, but that delivery also be confirmed (via the item being signed for).

If this is true, and Paypal have made an unjustified decision in closing your claim (as they OFTEN do - I deal with them a lot), you may be able to claim the money back. Contact trading standards.

 

EDIT:

 

https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/Marketing/securitycenter/sell/SellerPPOverview-outside

Copied from Paypal's seller protection policy:

"4. For items with a value of £150 or more, you need to provide proof of signature from the recipient if the buyer claims that the item did not arrive."

 

They can't argue with that. From my experience, Paypal are the most unscrupulous company I've ever dealt with, and they probably found it in the seller's favour on the offchance that you wouldn't contest it. Contact trading standards.

Hey Ady. If you get your money back thanks to me, can I be in your credits as 'Financial Advisor'? Haha jk! Please don't click ignore :P

In related SW parody news, in the Adult Swim lead in to Robot Chicken a few nights ago, they said "Robot Chicken Star Wars 3.....eventually".

My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.

Like I said before, makes more sense since the sets look like they belong to the Empire.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

I have to agree with Golden Idol here.  Just because you think a set looks like an Imperial design doesn't mean changing the entire story of the last act of the film is justified.  It's a chamber made for freezing Tibanna gas for distribution, which is what Cloud City is for - it's a Tibanna gas mining colony.  Lando even says it might kill Han, and that creates tension when he's frozen - moving it to the Executor would imply that its sole purpose is freezing people in suspended animation, which leaves no tension whatsoever.

Not to mention that it would mean Luke is hanging on the bottom of the Executor at the end of the film, and he lands on Cloud City then somehow ends up on the Executor ... it just doesn't make any sense at all.

Plus I don't think it looks even remotely like Imperial design - what about it makes you think that way?

I think it would make the characters look completely stupid especially luke for even getting near the executioner. Plus the Empire has control of Cloud City so what more could you want. Boarding the Executioner is something that luke would not do in this point in his training. Plus ady isn't going to the trouble to redo all of those BEAUTIFUL Cloud City shots just to have the executioner in the city. Cloud City is a gas mining facility. So what is the problem with the Carbon Freezing Chamber ran by uganaughts being in cloud city. Answer Nothing. Moving all of that onto the Executioner just for shits and giggles is pointless. It makes no logical sense. And it makes a big plot hole in the film. I think they would see that big assed ship coming before anything could happen. After all han and leia go to cloud city in the hopes of no imperial entanglements so it is better that the empire hides in the shadows on this one. Makes a better suprise when vader is at the table. If it aint broke............

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

You know what guys, after looking at the sets again, you're right, it's an asinine idea. For some reason I thought the lighting patterns used were the same as in the Death Star, but I guys not. Just forget I ever said it.

To go back to the topic of the TIE bombers and their explosions for a moment, I have to agree with those of you who said the detonations should be changed.  Looking at some stills from that scene, the "explosions" look more like some sort of blue plasma discharge than an actual explosion (top image).

Ady, any chance you might do something to that scene to make the explosions more authentic looking?  I was thinking something along the lines of this (bottom image):

Didn't see anything mentioned about this, but I'd like to see marks left by Luke's lightsaber after cutting the hatch open underneath the AT-AT.

 

 

 

 

 

 

As you can see, there's a clear path from where the saber first hits the exterior of the AT-AT, to where the saber is finished cutting. I don't know how to do this kind of mockup, so I'll leave it to someone with more skill in that area.
