Why was it so easy to add in the Biggs footage prior to the Battle of Yavin for the SE release, and why does it look so great? This was obviously not part of the original film, but it was spliced in seamlessly and looked perfect, despite being 20 years old.

How is it that a single cutscene could be in better shape than the rest of the OT?

Forgive me if I'm being naive.


I think it is cuz GL as ever cut scene and OOT master and SE master and stuff taken care of very very very carefully. He will jsut never admit it.

I only heard this through my cousin and the grape vine. Personally, I don't care either way. I'm getting the originals and am for the most part, pleased.

And as much as I hate the idea of Lucas replacing Shaw with Hayden, I am very curious as to how it would look. Not that I would ever accept the altered scene, but it would be neat to see what it would look and sound like, see how creeped out I would be with the change, and then shrug my shoulders and go "Huh, that was kind of weird. Whatever. *tosses out disk*"

Could Hayden be put in age make-up and pull off a non-creepy, heart breaking line of "Now, go my son. Leave me."? I actually want Lucas to do this so I can go, "Wow, huh. Yea...uh, no. Shaw was way better."


I heard that to about totally replacing Shaw. Well we will find out next year in those inevitable Archive Editions

My input on what you posted.


Have the DS be destoryed in ANH and have Vader talk with the Emperor.

No Mustafar in ESB have Endor

Put Coruscant in ROTJ, but Endor be the moon

Have the duel be on the DSII this is the only way it will work (unless if GL does something radical for the inevitable Archival Editions)

And for Episode one cut those plot line and undoable vfx shots

And definately use foriegn language tracks for aliens, such as Japanesse movies, Passion of the Chirst, and maybe use Russian or German reversed for the Gungans, and for the pronouns issue I wouldn't worry about it cuz most languages have there own pronouns for words like that.

Erik I think the best thing to do with ROTJ is have Coruscant there and stuff but still have the duel in the DSII, have the first Death Star explode and have the Vader Emperor talk at the end of ANH. And yes OCPmovie still comes around now, and I don't think he is doing any 'projects' right now so you should prbably send him a PM. And if there is a way to maybe have the DSII at Mustafar in the begining of ESB then we might be able to pull off having the DS partially explode in ANH and jsut have 1 throughout the whole trilogy. Because if it is at Mustafar then it is to far away from Hoth and plus a partial DS won't be able to blow up Hoth anyways. O and from the Planet montage is there anyway to get Mustafar, Utopia, and KKyashck in there.

this could be possible through redone crawls and somehow making Padme's hand twitch during the funeral and somehow getting Obi-wan away from the birthing

EDIT:
I was thinking, why don't we ask OCPMovie if he would help with the special effects shots. Because most of the shots would just matte painting planet, DS II, or ships into certian places and he did tons of that with the classic edition. So I really think that you guys should ask him.

And second I think that you guys should now start pre-editing for episode I, IV, V, VI. Write down ever thing that needs edited, subtitled, color changed, music cues, rotoscoped, people matte painted in to backrounds, which deleted scenes should be added back in( for episode 1), re-write all of the crawls etc.. for each movie. And definately edit around the music like Trooperman cuz his edits for episode 2 and 3 will be apart of the Ranch so they need to be similar.

That way you guys can now start lifting this project off of ideas and on to the edits . I really wish i knew how to edit to help this project though.

after all there going to asassnate palpatine right.

there you could use shots of the imperial city from Revemge of the sith as stock footage.
and clean up the end cellbration footage by removing the endor trees and by compositing in our heros luke, leia ,han, lando etc
into to a new enviorment such as nabbo and have luke and leia visit there mothers grave.
than the force ghosts appear.
a force ghost anikian it is the old force ghost than he morphs into the younger hayden one then a force ghost padme appears at his side.
than yoda and obiwan.
will this work

thanx

I think the celebration on Endor is good. I mean I know these edits are to make the saga work better but the celebration on Endor is perfect the way it is. Now if we oculd get the force ghosts to morph into there younger self and maybe get Guigon-Jin ( I totally spelt his name wrong didn't I lol) in it that would be great. And Having DSII in ESB by Mustafar would be a good idea. But I just pray that we could get in a Specail Effect artist.

PLEASE IF ANYONE KNOWS ANYONE WHO IS GOOD AT THIS KINDA STUFF PLEASE TALK WITH THEM!!!


EDIT: I sent out a request in another forum I'm apart of if anyone is good at Special Effects, now I jsut to wait to see if I get any relpies....
