I'm sorry, but I think that time and knowledge has proven that Lucas's "original vision" isn't worth jack...
i'm talking about the pre-special edition/prequel lucas

why have all blue? what difference does it make to the story?
For one, Jedi are not ones to allow individuality. I think a pig headed Jedi council who only allow Blue Sabers makes them look drunk with power. It really works well for a better story
that is also part of the reason, another is that george lucas originally envisioned the jedi just having blue lightsabers. the only reason luke had a green one in rotj was because the original saber blended in with the tatooine environment.
oh and another reason why windu has a purple lightsaber was because sam persuaded lucas to give him the color purple and then the eu made up some bullshit story to cover it up
the all blue lightsabers in the prequels would be a return to lucas original vision

i believe green would be a better color for dooku.
here is the idea of what it would look like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngOjuEckyCE
i have always believe that the knights of the old republic should only possees blue lightsabers just as the sith posses red kind of like the old days of red vs blue. green would be a rarity to only luke, dooku or yoda
here is the concept of the old republic jedi just possessing only blue lightsabers

if you ever get another chance of redubbing that first scene this is the kind of dialog i thought of on my spare time that might fix the shitty dialog (mesa) and make jar jar a lot more tolerable
jarjar: you saved my life, thank you
quigon: you almost got us killed are you brainless?
jarjar: (bragging like it's a cool thing) well i speak (or) i speak don't i?
quigon: the ability to speak does not make you intelligent now go on
jarjar: no way i'm staying, sticking with you as a humble servant is a whole lot safer.
quigon: that wont be necessary
jarjar: well my instinct tells me otherwise
(battle droid fight)
jarjar: that's twice you saved me
obiwan: whose this?
quigon: a local we have to move before more show up
jarjar: more? hey wait a minute!
that's the idea i have so far. as you can see i just changed the dialog so it isn't that far off from the original dialog and with a good voice actor with the right accent or no accent, jarjar might come out a whole lot better character than he is now.

If I did a cut, I would still cut down on some of the scenes-- namely, removing as much of Jar Jar's slapstick as the story allows for (no dinner table antics or icky poodoo incidents). However, Jar Jar and co. be cut down a bit less than in The Phantom Edit, because there'd only be stupid physical mannerisms to worry about instead of that on top of irritating voices.

It makes sense that Gungans should speak Gungan when talking only to other Gungans but most of the time they are speaking to humans or within their company. It might add to the drama if they sometimes spoke Gungan with humans around to imply a level of secrecy.
I wouldn't go down the route of Magnoliafan though as action orientated high dialogue movies don't lend to too many subtitles.
Lucas was wise not to give Yoda an alien language track as it would have dragged ESB down to a crawl.
i don't think we need subs in other to tell what they are saying, we can simply just tell by their gestures what is going on
i had an idea that when jar jar is speaking to qui gon or the other humans, he should speak english with a bit of accent (that means no "mesa" or any of that crap) but when he is speaking with his kind, he can speak with the original voice (backward like mangoli fan edit)
inspiration: AVATAR
anyone here watched avatar? really good movie especially the last 20 mins
we should get some ideas on how to set up the ewoks reveal and the battles they partake in the final climax an also the environment "angel"
that's all i have
did i forget to mention how awesome avatar was? okay
i rather call star wars episode 2 a galaxy divided i don,t care if the clone war series has the name, it's an expanded universe and as adywan has said, it doesn't exist in the movie cannon.
the name works better than attack of the clones because like the titles from the OT, it sums up what is happening in the movie.
episode 1 does need a new title as well but i'd leave the episode 3 one the way it is. not only because the title feels OTish and sums up the movie, it is also my favorite title out of all the prequels
what ever happened to...Cade Skywalker and his fantastic color corrections
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K77C5DOdKsA&feature=channel
god i hope nothing bad has happened to him cause his color corrections made things look like they are really there
well there is the force unleashed game where he is voiced by a very good imitator, the lone wars series ect
then just distorts his voice
what about doing what jason did in his own prequel edit where sidious face is hidden in the hologram and having his voice distorted
i had this idea for the yoda sidious fight:
after sid shocks yoda and he stands back up again, why don't we have him force push sid before he could finish his line "at last the jedi are no more" (or in my opinion replace "at last" with "soon") to show that he now means business.
during the scenes when sid starts shocking yoda again, let us at least see some elesctrcal arcs surging through yoda (like mace windu) to show that sid is starting to over-power him. then when yoda blasts him off and lands at the bottom, we should still see some small electricity still surging through him. (to show that he is now very weakened and isn't strong enough to fight again)
at least that will give us a better reason why he fled rather than the way it is in the movie.
i can't believe no one is talking about the new cloud city matte
which i find to be the best shot so far though by the way ady? is this still an unfinished shotcause it looks a little bit unfinished.
maybe it's just me

Can this conv be on the offtopic forum?
low and behold, prodical son returns
jason n gave us a very good idea of seeing dooku in a new light as a rogue jedi trying to save the galaxy from the sith that he only knows rather than a sith
how did you do it tell me your SECRET!!!!
but seriously that looks good
green looks good on dooku
infact i remember a long time suggesting that all jedi have blue saber so dooku's green one differs from their's so when we later see luke again with a green lightsaber.....
there is one thing distracting that i hate is during the scene when the ds fires on one of the rebel ship then it is overlapped with explosion that is just a bad effect. i hope when adywan gets to that point he would use the same particle effect he used on alderan
darth venal how is that death project coming you know the one with star trek inspired planet destruction

Ady....how's the edit going? What are you working on right now? Peace.....
Well, on the modelling side of things, i've been building the skeleton for the new Wampa puppet. The jaw was a bit tricky to get a more natural movement than was in the original puppet and make it look like a real jaw bone and not something that just pops open. The facial sculpture of the Wampa is complete and the mould has been made ready for the latex to be applied. I've made the head section so that it can be worn by a person, although they wouldn't be able to see out of it. The puppet is going to be a head and shoulders, the same as the original, but unlike the original it is also going to feature a section of the arms. When he swings at Luke in the opening shots i want the audience to be able to see the shoulder movement and part of the arm lashing out.
On the video side of things, well what i have been working on is top secret. This is going to be something that i won't be revealing until the movie is released.

That's great. Really, that sounds excellent. I hope Adywan considers using this idea.
I did try using "Luke" from this DVD but it didn't fit quite right in the correct section. When he is playing the Emperor he has a slight croak to his voice which is missing from this footage. I might play about with it again when i come to the audio, but if it doesn't work then it will stay as "young Skywalker"
i don't know but i think i prefer "young skywalke"r to just "luke skywalker"
here an idea for solo's thawing in this image or in ady's future revisit, i never did understand why when han finally thaws out, there is a man size hole bigger than him
i suggest shrinking down the hole down to his size
also another idea
i'd like to see the admiral and officer moved far from the bridge so it looks like vader came from the bridge rather that the station being smack dab in the middle of thw walkway
you know what idea i had since episode one was to make qui gon obiwan instead cause most of his dialogs were defiant to the jedi council which would have supported what obiwan said to yoda about being different when he thought him. and this exactly happen in the original script of episode 1.

Two videos in one day!
Here's my continued work on ROTJ: Fan-O-Matic:
nice work although something i just noticed is the rebel that said "yes sir" and "move out" sounded bad like he wasn't even trying and that kind of takes me out of it
also the vader i noticed the dialog seems to be a reharsh of waht the emperor said during his arrival.
i would prefer if the dialog just ended like this:
(after vader tells papatine that his son is with the rebels)
strange that i have not, i wonder if your feelings on this matter are clear.
they are clear my master
then you must go to the moon and wait for him
(switch to vader) his compasssion for you will be his undoing
as you wish
end
