It sounds mundane provincial and domestic (no grand political schemes or adventurous ambitions from Beru which is possibly why Owen loves her), therefore A) nice background info, we learn a bit more about the sort of woman who will raise Luke and B) it's adds a bit of grounding realism to a film with arena monsters and battledroids.

 

Or it's similar to...

ANAKIN: I hate sand.

I don't have that much of a problem with those lines, just the delivery.

A different actor (and a different director) might have managed to pull it off without coming across as just some pervy teen trying to get into an older girls knickers.

The performances on both sides of the conversation, the direction, the score all came together to make a rather odd bit of cinema which is dances around every possible reaction, romantic, comedic, edgy and still manages to stick it foot in the bear trap of wooden and dull.

It deserves a special award for that.

Ah poor GL. I was reading The Making Of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith by J. W. Rinzler today and on page 53 Lucas himself says: 'I'm not known for my dialogue [laughs]'.

Well, I would say a number of us know him for his dialogue.  Just not good dialogue.

I recently re-rotoscoped a lightsaber on one of the prequel films and you would be amazed at how many times they missed.

The tip of the physical saber prop blade (pole thing) hasn't been covered with the rotoscoped laser blade (glowy purple thing).

Do you see a small cylinder part that is in front of purple blade?

that is a part of the rod that they missed to rotoscope ;)

 

EDIT: Bingo beat me

I'd have to go through it again, but the ones I ran into were from TPM's last duel.

ROTS style to TPM faded colors! Inspired from invisible hand interiors

If you think that is too dark consider that the brightness was set into my monitor :)

It's a great improvement but perhaps a little too extreme (the sharpness and contrast need taking down just a wee bit) but it it does look like a new movie.

Do you think it was deliberately washed out so that Lucas could put out a restored version in 2017?

Of course!

Besides, if the saga hadn't so many issues, the fans wouldn't have something to bother ;)

Btw, ROTS had some hard blacks.

as for the sharpness and contrast it may be look different in motion. so yes it can be settled ;)

That said, maybe you should try a motion test? - the mockups look incredible as usual.

Damn Angel, I wish you did video too LOL!. It looks beautiful. I couldn't do that in photoshop. How did you fix the bots without making them look melted. Damn good job as usual. Thanks to your mockups I will never watch these films the same again. I'll say "Damn, I wish it looked like angels mockups" LOL

P.S. It doesn't look too dark on my screen. Then again I am on my Laptop with brightness on full.

 

"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

I think those look great. Here is where I need help. I need to figure out how you did that in Photoshop, so that perhaps I can figure out how to duplicate it in AE... You really need to give us a tutorial Vaderios... Great mockups as usual!

Definitely. If I knew how to do half of the magic that Angel did I could do it in AE also. Hell AE has everything that photoshop has. ANGEL TELL BENJA HOW TO DO IT NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
