I’m a bit disappointed that I got censored here today. Funny how one person only makes one post in it and then a little bit later … poof? It wasn’t funny, it is the reality of it.

😦

Poof…? How very dare you 😃

WTF is that first one? Looks like it has an R2 missile.

Artoo Missile is a great third album title for Enhanced Lizard.

That is a stupid statement considering he made THX.

It’s just a weird, dumb movie.

When was the last time you even watched the theatrical version, if ever? A lot of people here (myself included) have put in lot of effort and money to restore it.

What - did Lucas change that one too?

Yes, and it makes even the SE changes seem mild by comparison.

I’ve always thought the enhanced lizard from the DC looks better, and the masturbation piston is great.

Masturbation Piston is a great second album title.

Not from this certain point of view. I prefer the razor tickle of the original cut. Certainly to the baseball bat fight of Return of the Jedi.

Did you even watch the video I posted?

Yes I did.
I wouldn’t have replied until I had watched the video.

I genuinely see no improvement.
As for justifying what is ‘wrong’ with a thing this highlights something about personal narrative building.
I now see an awkwardness in the way Kenobi tells Luke about his father that makes sense in the context of him being a really awful fibber but originally he was telling the truth.

Yes they actors were holding experimental props on a delicate set but it lent their movements something that added to the narrative of the piece (let’s face it Lucas’ strength isn’t his writing something magical happened largely because of what he couldn’t achieve and how what he did film was later edited by others).

Tom Baker had a particularly pensive way of walking as the Doctor in Doctor Who that was because the set could malfunction at any point but it added to his character. Same with this sword fight (at least from my certain point of view).

The duel in Jedi is far more problematic at times. It just lacks much in the way of panache (until Luke goes ballistic and even then you have that awkwardly choreographed moment where Vader has to get his hand in position to be cut off). Generally it’s bam bam bam kick.

I think the Star Wars duel could be improved with some inserts and different camera angles.
There are some wonky panels in the corridor so maybe Vader could have fun pulling at those with the Force or something but where it does fall a bit flat (the twirl for example) that’s not going to be fixed by just editing. It needs more material.

Not from this certain point of view. I prefer the razor tickle of the original cut. Certainly to the baseball bat fight of Return of the Jedi.

Don’t yell at me just asking how long until the a new hope revisited hd and jedi revisited hd will be out give or take? 10 20 years and no i’m not being a sarcastic. I’m just curious because i’m really looking forward to it and just was wondering that’s all. For the record i’m not trying to sound pushy i’m just curious that all. Because to me these are the complete versions of the original star wars trilogy

Why do you ask this when you know from asking about Empire that nobody, not even Ady knows for sure and it’s kind of annoying?
It shouldn’t​ take as long as ESB:R as some of the delays there were unique life events and technology and skills have improved. But life happens while we make plans. Patience. For the Jedi it is time to eat as well 😃

looks like Darth Vader is holding back for no reason whatsoever.

He’s holding back because the last time he fought Obi-Wan, things didn’t go very well for him. He was right to play it safe.

Well yes. Also in Empire Vader is fighting someone who has been practicing for a few months. If anything he is testing Luke’s potential so he is throwing all manner of fancy shapes at him. Vader in Jedi is more like Vader in Star Wars. He is cautious slow. His only flourish is throwing his sword to break the gantry. Luke is more like Vader in Empire during the Jedi fight. Because foreshadowing and because he has been doing this long enough now to have a false sense of security. I agree that the spin looks a bit awkward in Star Wars. sadly it looks like Jeremy Corbyn might be free in a few months. Maybe he could film some inserts 😂

The world is not yet flat because I have not yet rolled it over thumbtacks.

I totally disagree. The Obi Wan/Vader duel is only inconsistent with the prequels which had acrobats doing back flips and spiralling barrel rolls wearing Christopher Lee’s or Ian McDiarmid’s face. In the context of the original trilogy it looks like what it is. Two seasoned skilled fighters making very careful moves against appointments armed with very, very dangerous blades.

Two times

Looking forward to the hanger matte replacements. Maybe we can sponsor effects like that in the future. The similar matteastrophe in Return of The Jedi has bugged me since 1983.
