Bobson Dugnutt

Here’s a version with the green reduced

And how it looks on the other shot

I would like to consider Bobson Dugnutt’s direction for the colouring as an alterante option so Bobson, if you’re still active and listening, could I by any chance grab a PM of the force ghost scenes once you’ve finished the colours? Thanks in advance.

Once I have the Blu-Ray, I’ll work on it, for now I’ve only got screenshots

Master Skywalker?

Trying to fix the hyper blue they added to Luke, so that it’s more in line with Yoda in TLJ and Obi-Wan in Empire and Jedi instead of looking like a neon hologram

I did finish the edit up, but I didn’t post any updates over here as I’m more active on fanedit.org, but feel free to PM me if you’d like it

Here’s a trailer for the release

Now then, who has a complete version of the Declan Mulholland Jabba scene to go with it? Every version of it I’ve seen has those tv station borders/logos burned in…

Look over here for some work I’ve done on the scene…

https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/ANH-Jabba-Scene-Pre-Special-Edition-Recreation/id/69559

I have constantly heard about others using this seemingly magical program to do all kinds of things to videos that seems unfathomable like cleaning up dirt and subpar footage into great looking restorations, so I looking into using the program myself to simply make a standard definition, interlaced, 25fps clip into a reasonably good looking deinterlaced 23.976fps that could stand up against some HD footage. What I got a lot of technical jargon to sift through and a lot of stuff to install with little instruction about where to put it and how to type code or something.

If anyone around around here knows a decent guide or is able to help with such a request, I’d be very thankful

They’ve revealed the Bonus Features on the 2nd disc, no deleted scenes to be included much to the dismay of many who were wishing for an fanedited extended edition

• The Skywalker Legacy: The story lives forever in this feature-length documentary that charts the making of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
• Pasaana Pursuit: Creating the Speeder Chase – Dive into the making of the movie’s epic landspeeder chase and discover how this spectacular sequence was brought to the screen.
• Aliens in the Desert: See what it took to create the Pasaana desert scenes, from the sheer scale and complexity of the shoot to its colorful details.
• D-O: Key to the Past: Explore the ship that connects Rey to the mystery of her missing parents and get to know the galaxy’s newest, irresistible droid.
• Warwick & Son: Warwick Davis, who played Wicket in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, dons the Ewok costume once more; this time joined by his son Harrison.
• Cast of Creatures: The team behind the film’s memorable creatures reveal the puppetry, makeup, prosthetics and digital magic that bring them to life!
• Digital Exclusive: The Maestro’s Finale: Composer John Williams reflects on his body of work for the Star Wars saga and shares insights on scoring Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

I enjoy that they’ve included a lengthy doco about the making of the film, hopefully in the same vein as the very in-depth The Director and the Force from TLJ instead of a fluffy PR piece like TFA, but that remains to be seen

Let’s Hope Jabba Scene Pre-Special Edition Will Be Restored And Remastered, Eventually.

This is what I am doing?

why you don´t use the scene from the movie,change jabba with the actor and remove other things they are not original like boba…

Because so much of the frame has to be replaced in this quality and as Jabba keeps moving, its very distracting so it’s a little better to keep it like this

Wasn’t there a Japanese laserdisc that included the original deleted scene as part of the movie?

Perhaps the japanese “From SW to Jedi” you’re thinking of? That’s the only one that I know of that had the scene included, but maybe there is one out there that I’m unaware of

This is some really great work Bobson 😃

Thank you!

Now here’s the hard part, the backend of the scene with 8 different sources, all wildly differing in colour and quality. I’ve tried to get the colours as close as possible. The audio isn’t done yet and the last shot still needs work to remove the credits or just further crop them out, the shot slowly zooms in so there isn’t such as jarring cut, but it might just look like garbage, so I’m not sure.

Finished a few more shots and adjusted the first couple

Using the 2011 Blu-Ray and the recently scanned “From Star Wars to Jedi” 16mm print (as well as whatever source Jamie Benning used in Star Wars Begins, a few VHS recordings I think), I’ve tried to recreate the Episode IV Jabba scene with the original actor Declan Mulholland before the CGI slug got shoved in there.

Obviously it’s still a work in progress and the colour isn’t all there and the seams are visable, but it’s miles above what we’ve had before I think. Ideally I’d like to use a scan of the 97SE since I like that version far more, but since it isn’t completed or released yet, the Blu-Ray will suffice.

What stormtrooper scene exactly? This is the first I’ve heard of it

A livestream of him editing in real time, must be thrilling stuff.

Derpston P Derp and Bobson Dugnutt are one in the same, both are me but just different aliases for my seperate online stuff. Feel free to PM me for whatever edit you’d like.

MovieJim is on Reddit under the name moviejim1 and can be PMed here if you want as well as being around here somewhere.

I don’t know if anyone cares still, but I found a full capture of BTTF 3 from 1993 with censored overdubs. If anyone wants it for whatever reason, feel free to PM me.

May you point me to that ROTS project? Thanks!

It’s here
https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Star-Wars-Prequels-35mm-4K-Filmized-Editions-by-Emanswfan/id/15033/page/1

Here’s a preview he made, regraded and regrained in 4k and it looks incredible.

https://mega.nz/#!bX5zVCZJ!EJ1lB3vHebXlMi-92oZDtydG_-DyOvKdLtl-kS76CFY

How does this upscaling to 4K work exactly? I was curious when ROTS was done by another user, but I’m unaware of how the process works.

Looks excellent by the way

This sounds like a great project, I just wanted to add that the DVD version of season 1’s “Telltale Head” is cut by almost a minute compared to the broadcast version. It’s all in the final scene. I wanted to create at least a patchwork fix for myself, but the only copy I could find of the uncut footage was on Youtube, which was good for confirming the exact details of what is missing from the DVD, but such terrible quality that it could not be used. There are other small discrepancies here and there, such as the “Tourette’s Syndrome” joke, but I believe “Telltale Head” has the only significant omissions on any of the sets.

Funny enough I have this on VHS and did a quick rip of it

This project is dedicated to the late, great Kenny Baker, who had the courage to get through these films without having to use coke

Bold of you to assume a guy stuck in a tin can all day did so without some sort of drug

What was with that flickering shit?

I’ve got no clue what you’re talking about. There is no flickering present in the source file, output or uploaded video. What are you referring to?

I put the 4:3 shot back into 2.39:1 and coloured it slightly to match.

https://vimeo.com/302627480

The quality is still a bit eh, but looks better

There is entertainment,
and then there is beating a dead horse.

4K83 is now up on Mega with provided subtitles. Both the 4K and 1080p No-DNR versions are up and avalible for download. If you own Return of the Jedi in some shape or form, feel free to PM for the links.

I believe what Bendu is trying to say is the opening segment to the cantina musical bit which reuses some ANH footage and some deleted bits which I think are on the Blu-Ray
