But as for emotional impact for the scene...

...Leia's face her face fixed in shock and mouth open and eye's welling up in tears but only one rolls down her cheek.  It's simple, [and] powerful... [It] would have to be cut with Obi-wan's look of shock too at sensing the death of Alderaan.

Just something I quickly put together to illustrate TK99's idea.

This sort of popped into my head as I was thinking about how the scene could be done.

In the beginning of ESB, we see Luke look at a meteroit (after the probe-droid had crashed), and in the comic book version there is mention of meteroits who use to hit the surface. So why don't we see more meteroits? What happened to them? If more meteroits were added during the Hoth scenes, would it be more exciting with even more difficulty for the rebels (of course it would be a problem for the empire as well)?

That's a pretty good point...but it's in the wrong thread.

STAR WARS: EP V thread...

http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/STAR-WARS-EP-V-REVISITED-EDITION-ADYWAN-NEW-TRAILER-AVAILABLE-NOW/topic/9060/

Can it be modded, with a hole at either end?

...or...

Men wouldn't buy that...it's exercising the wrong body part.

...or...

I'd get one...but I'm afraid I'll chip my teeth. ;)

Mr Ghostface said:

... who here has done some editing and who hasn't? And what do you use?

I've done a bit, mainly to demostrate ideas metioned in the forum.

Like Ady, I use Sony Vegas (9) for all my editing. 

I've posted all my efforts on YouTube. (link is in my siggy)

Nice, now it looks like I was saying that this thread is damn near impossible to find, when I was saying it isn't that hard to find. You should get a job in journalism. ;)

Sorry 'bout that...I think I deleted too much text, and made you look bad. I only wanted to clip out the middle section...and didn't double check my not-so-good handywork.

I went for comic genius, and ended up with with a pile of crap...Now I know what Lucas feels like.

:(

Again, I'm sorry, my man.

Does anyone actaully read these announcement threads?

... I'd highly recommend sending out PMs, rather than just hoping they happen to pop in here and read your post.

... this thread is that hard to find,...

Just delete the oversized pics. Those affected will ask "WTF?", and then look in the forum for an answer!

- Minimal effort, maximal impact. :D

I'm not really that familiar with everyone here, but was he the guy who was posting those really goofy mockups about weird changes to ESB a good few months back?

Whew....then you don't mean me - I made goofy mockups using ROTJ. ;)

You depraved sexaholic!

Just kidding dude.

Anyway that is a seriously hilarious vid - rated and fave'd. Oh and I also noticed that the 'Imperial' Channel is '69', was this a conscious decision, lol?

Thanx, my man!

Making '69' the Imperial channel was a semi-conscious decision.  I wanted to have a channel 69, but using it for the dirty channel would have been too obvious.

DEAD THREAD !

...LOL, just kidding.

Anyway, I was debating wether, or not, to post a link to my latest YouTube video, but I figured 'what the hell'. so here it is.

It's a bit on the naughty side, so please keep that in mind when (or IF) you click on this link.

Feel free to flame me, and call me a depraved sex-oholic....I've heard it all before. ;)

Can you give us the time where your disc 'skips'?

Still no news! I'd prefer a bad excuse to....... NO NEWS! ;)

You are really starting to piss me off now Sevb32...

[I] apologise if i come off as a bit aggressive lately. 24/7 pain is not a nice thing to live with

[My] intention was to get people talking..., and the dead thread posts [were] for the same reason, to get people talking.

I am sorry...

The only thing people talk about, when you do the 'dead thread' thing, is why you keep doing it.

But...I accept your apology. ;)

Hope you feel better soon, Ady. Keep on truckin'.

Bingowings said:

[It] might be a shocking addition to the panic...of Cloud City if we saw Imperial ships...

[It] would...remind the audience that it wasn't just the Rebels that Imperials were utter gits to.

Found this interesting pic while tooling around Google Images:

I've gotten videogames from Japan via eBay many times. Is that the sort of thing you're thinking of?

Sample item from a seller I trust (Simcity for Super Famicom).

Cade Skywalker said:

I'm still looking for...AotC trailers. ... Would someone be kind enough to do so?

If I were to do this for you, what settings (quality/size/etc) should I use?

I just wanted to pop in, and plug a quick video I made - "Gui-Gon Gets Mad".
(read the description before telling me you're confused)

And just a reminder of "Goodbye Anakin...Hello Darth Vader"...just in case someone missed it. ;D

LOL, Get a hobby and/or a job. You can't live with your parents forever ;-).

Hobby: I collect videogame stuff (the older, the better).

Job: Had one...looking for another one.

Live with Parents: Stopped doing that a long time ago....

But, I gotta get a life though... ;P

... the line in ANH won't have to be changed. There's only one problem, Obi-Wan says that his student Darth Vader killed Anakin, but it's seems that Obi-Wan killed Anakin if you let him burn in Ep III.

Obi wan is lying to Luke anyway

...From a certain point of view.

Obi-Wan must appear to kill Anakin on Mustafar, or at least leave him to die. Vader should then show up in his suit and attack the Temple

[Make] Anakin's defeat a mid-film climax...

EyeShotFirst said:

When Anikan is burning in the fires of Mustafar let him close his eyes then have an establishing shot with sad music and take it from there.

After Obi-Wan dismembers Anakin, do not show any movement in his torso.  Make him look limp and lifeless to imply he is dead.  Then, still not moving, the immolation begins and seals the deal.

Just in case you're interested (and you probably aren't), my laser disc players:

Pioneer LD-V2000 - Yeah it's humble, but it only cost me $10.

Kenwood LVD-320 - Crappy picture quality, but I can listen to AC3 tracks. :D

My program of choice is Ulead DVD Workshop. It's an oldie, but a goodie. It can make buttons out of almost anything (text, picture, video clip thumbnail).

And, that's only the tip o' the iceburg. :)

fishmanlee said:

hey adywan how did you make your menu "buttons" just text like in the official DVD?

Do you the menu items like "PLAY", and "CHAPTER SELECTION" ?

They're just text that's put onto the menus during DVD design, and using an appropriate font of course.

Have you ever used any kind of DVD creation software?
(I'm not being sarcastic...I'm just asking) 

dark_jedi said:

I don't know if any of you want [RoboCop], or not but Walmart has it for only $10 right now,I know we all read that it did not have the greatest transfer and all,but $10 is damn cheap,and it still looks a lot better than the DVD.

I think we should use this thread to let each other know of these great deals,Best Buy runs them all the time as well as Target and I am sure others.

I forgot to give the title LOL,it is Robocop.

I'll wait for them to be '2 for $10'......and after I get a BR player.

...here's a 'quick' little video I ... made that has that clip in it, as-well-as a couple of other crazy, wacky, and odd ideas...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQm9rlbJSyI

...Adding that first clip sequence to me detracts from the mystery and feeling of the scene.

I just like the panning shot better, ...

Yea, that part was certainly improved, but I think the beginning of the clip after cutting from Luke talking to Yoda should be kept as it is.

I threw that in to see how it would flow...and I agree that is an akward transition, at best, no matter how incredibly brilliant my editing is.
