If you had the answer, then why did you ask?

Well the sky was just a test for this one frame, but it only took a few seconds, so I could easily implement it into the rest. It’s the filth that’s time-consuming. I’m at frame 28 (the one I just showed you) of 4582. I did a whole 12 frames yesterday, though.
I saw a thread on another forum yesterday suggesting that maybe they’ll use the scrapped warhammer subplot from TFA to integrate Leia. It wasn’t a leak or rumor, just conjecture, but it makes sense.

It’s played constantly and it sounds so bored with itself.
That’s not even a theme. It’s just musical noise, an apt description for the entire soundtrack of that film (not that there aren’t a few standouts).
I much prefer the music that plays during Dooku’s entrance in ROTS (though it was mixed so low it was practically nonexistent):

That’s no better.
He has the really boring ‘conspiracy motif’
Which theme exactly are you referring to?
So glad that this minor mystery that she, by her actions, made peace with in TFA is now her central character flaw.
Why would something she’s come to terms with become a flaw? If anything, it would eliminate a flaw.
I take it the remark I was responding to was sarcastic.
honestly, i think adding the falcon to the PT is a really bad idea.
Why exactly?
The most desolate hole in the galaxy being very important would be ironic and funny.
I that’s cancelled out by how many times we’ve gone back to Tatooine by now.

On the Sequel Radical Redux thread, I suggested replacing the Falcon with a new ship, but what if you did the reverse, and replaced Padme’s ships with the Falcon. They all have differently shaped exteriors, but the interior is always the same, so that room could be a Lando-esque front attachment. Just redecorate it slightly to look more like the Falcon. Its look in Solo would actually suit the Prequels quite well, all clean and white, so you could add some shots of those hallways with relevant characters added in.
At the end of the day, I just find it awkward having the Falcon in two out of three trilogies. It’s not quite a one-trilogy thing, but it’s not quite a universal thing. On similar note, Chewbacca is missing from Episodes I-II…eh, whatever. Not like he’d be relevant. I do really want to keep R2 and 3PO in every movie, but as it stands, I’m removing the latter from Episodes I-II, as I don’t like the roles he’s given, and he doesn’t even have his iconic look yet anyways. I’ll see if I can add him in other minor roles in those films.
I was thinking if Dooku is to be as prominent a villain as I want him to be, he’s gonna need a musical theme. I was thinking of using Grievous’s theme, but a) it’s already strongly associated with Grievous, and b) it suits him much better than it does Dooku.
I don’t wanna burn myself out and give up on the whole thing. Slow but steady wins the race.
Hell, even with Darth Maul: Apprentice I can’t figure out how to extend his role, and that’s just for TPM.
I have begun a frame-by-frame restoration of the scene with Luke and Biggs outside the Tosche Station. I’m doing 4 frames a day, and there are 4584 frames, minus the first two, which I’m skipping due to their extremely poor condition, so it should take me 1145 days, or 3 years and a bit. It’s a heart-pounding race between that and finishing Classic Doctor Who.
Too much overblown yellows.
It’s the Davies Era all over again.
A friend died yesterday - she would have been 34 today
My condolences.
LordZerome1080, could you elaborate on what you said?
Also, you forgot to say FTFY.
The idea is to make Dooku the equivalent of Vader or Kylo; a unifying villain for the trilogy. Maul, meanwhile, remains a villain-of-the-week.
Great! Now do that with Coruscant.
Please just make on thread for all of your stuff. This isn’t Reddit. Trust me, I did the same thing when I first joined.
Why were you browsing deleted scenes and spoilers before seeing the actual film?!
The Lost 20 is one of the deleted scenes I want restored the most. It provides some backstory on Count Dooku, a character who, as it stands, sorta comes out of nowhere. The problem with restoring it is less how unfinished it is, and more the fact that it feeds straight into another scene with the same characters and location, but large technical differences. Yeah, you can tell the CGI is not finished, but it looks alright, and the characters, being live-action are fine. No, the problem is mainly getting the audio and video to perfectly match the following scene. The background, the lighting, and the voices are all currently too different.
I don’t know if it was meant to be scary but the faceless people in the Doctor episode The Idiot’s Lantern were pretty unsettling as a kid. They’re probably the thing that cemented my idea for a long time that Doctor Who was some scary adult show on the level of Black Mirror. I also was reminded of it every time I saw the faceless heads of the stormtroopers in the Lego Imperial Star Destroyer I had.
When I last posted here, I ranted about the godawful film The Rider. Yesterday, in the same film studies class I saw The Rider, we watched another film…and it was amazing! It’s called Infernal Affairs. Apparently there’s some sequels, so I guess I’ll check those out sometime, although I can’t imagine anywhere else to take the story after the way it ended.
Konohamaru’s wannabe ninja squad from Naruto have a cameo in the Christmas episode of the original Ben 10.
