My wife has an uncle who wears a mustache like that. He's also worn brown shirts from time to time. But until he says "Sieg Heil!" I'll not think anything more of it.

Sorry, what I said was probably a little confusing. I meant it was the same cue as Yoda's Farewell (though apparently there are some differences with what music leads into it) but it should be placed before Padme's Funeral in the order.

I hope you take on Ep II. I tried this exercise once and was daunted, lazy, or perhaps simply otherwise involved in a re-edit ... probably a combination of all three. The guide at JWFan.net looked promising and I started to download the various source bits from somebody's server, but just didn't follow through. I'd bet you could do it though. The bits are certainly out there.

Here's a little present for you:
Dagobah

I ripped and worked with the "Exile to Dagobah" deleted scene, and by transitioning back and forth between your "Yoda Farewell" track and this one, I was able to get it pretty well FX free. It's the same cue, and is well-placed before [EDIT:] "Padme's Funeral."

Enjoy!

GM, this is an ambitious (and way cool) project. Do you have a detailed list of the source(s) for each cue?

I'm holding off for the inevitable BR release. I'm doing that on most titles now, renting them instead, given all the obnoxious double-dipping going on in the DVD world now. The original Bond set was already fantastic. I'm positive this one looks better, but it's pretty much a downgraded HD transfer in the first place. For that reason, when I go HD, I'll likewise do so with my disc titles. No sense in letting the studio triple-dip into my wallet. So I'm picking up Casino Royale on DVD and that's it.

Alien & Aliens are they only ones I consider as canon in my mind. While I loved Dutton's character in Alien-cubed, and thought the notion of Ripley carrying a queen was brilliant, the ham-fisted disposal of the survivors of Aliens was the ultimate slap in the franchise's face. All that deep character development surrounding Ripley's attachment to Newt was pissed away in the opening credits. The fact that Sigourney went cueball was just the dingleberry on top of a shit sundae.

In my rose-colored world, Ridley Scott and James Cameron will team for "Aliens Return" wherein the third and fourth films will be written off as a bad hyper-sleep dream.

At least as many as Joel Schumacher plus one. Apparently you can make nothing but bombs for a decade and still get new directing gigs.

I could have stomached it were it not for it's disrespect for continuity. Apparently you can go from egg to face hugger to chest burster to adult in minutes in the Paul WS Anderson world. And there were no compelling characters. No Ripley. No Dallas. No Hicks. No Bishop. No Charles S. Dutton bible-verse spewing religious nut. The characters are what made the Alien flicks so engrossing. The suspense was simply the glue that bound it together.

Who's this "Jay" wanker and where does he get off calling himself "Emperor?" A guy who only makes 1145 posts in over four years clearly can't be all that valuable to a community.

I'll bet he'll be back in a few days, probably posting under a different name, claiming he knows some guy who saw a restored anamorphic transfer of the O-OT but wasn't allowed to reveal his sources for fear of jeopardizing jobs at Lucasfilm.

What's totally putting the pepper in my italian sausage is that they're releasing it on Christmas Day. This is the second worst idea for a Christmas release (the worst being Black Christmas of course).

The lesson is: never let your sound designer be your film's editor. And for heaven's sake get him out of pre-viz.

GL did say this last week. JediSage posted it in Off-Topic. No official announcement on IndianaJones.com yet, but it is supposed to be gorgeously restored, so it's probably worth the wait. Though if it doesn't include the original Old Indy bumpers in supplements, then theres a great excuse for preservation.

No context whatsoever. That page had no other story attached. It was from "Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are" where a guru in the desert tells a kid about how much worse all these other persons' lives are. Harry Haddow apparently has bad Gizz. End of character development.
