^Why doesn't it sound like Vader? He's talking like a condescending jerk. Sounds good to me!

 

I should've been more specific. I meant to say that Vader's voice needs to sound like James Earl Jones for the "Apology accepted, Captain Needa." line. The line as we've all heard it sounds like an Ian McDirmid sound-alike (to me, anyway).

Not sure what you're saying, man.  You think that line sounds like the Emperor?  That's odd, but everyone's ears are different.  Maybe with the 4% speedup of PAL?

Just because he isn't speaking Monotone doesn't mean he doesn't sound like James. The line never stuck out to me. I thought his 1980 voice over performance was flawless. It was when they stuck in "Alert my stardestroyer blah blah blah" that I was bothered by James.

The Ricky Gervais Show
Time

Nanner Split said:

I'm a huge Gervais fan (well, Gervais/Merchant fan), and have been ever since I discovered the podcasts back in '06 (they were putting out 3 free ones called The Podfather at the time). The Office is probably my all-time favorite TV show, with Extras not far behind. I've been looking forward to the HBO show for months because now my friends will finally know what I've been talking about all this time.

That being said, I only really like Ricky whenever he's working with Steve Merchant. Here's why:

Stuff he's done with Steve:

-The Office

-Extras

-XFM Radio / Podcasts

Stuff he's done without Steve:

-Ghost Town

-The Invention of Lying

-His stand-up specials

 

As you can see, there's quite a bit of a quality difference there. They've got a film coming out soon called Cemetery Junction though, which is the first thing they've written together since Extras, so I'm hoping it'll be good.

I hated the Steve Carrell Office, but when I saw the original Office, I fell in love with the show. Extras was great as well. I really liked Ghost Town and The Invention Of Lying. I really like his style. I saw him on Inside The Actors Studio about a month ago, and I really like him.

That plastic cap that went on the bottom of 2 litre soda bottles.

I don't remember 2 liter soda bottles having any sort of cap on the bottom.

Clovers(yet another long gone store,  it was kind of like Walmart, but much much better)

 

Yes, I miss that store.

Yeah, There was one in my town within walking distance of my house and school.  I used to walk there from school and do my Christmas shopping there.   I have fond memories of it.  Btw, are you from the Philly area? 

No, we had one in Glasgow KY when I was a kid.

I've really enjoyed Adywan's work, but some of you are starting to do the same garbage as Lucas did with the OT. You see, many of peoples here are blaming Lucas for the whole SE stuff and changes, but are you not starting do the same as he did? What's the point of putting more and more things on the screen? And really, your proposed color correction is as bad as the 2004 DVD's. Why not simply put the colors from the original version, fix the lightsabers and that's all?

At the beginning I was pleased with the revisited idea, but now it is going in wrong direction. It's going in even worse direction than Lucas did. I though you simply loved the original trilogy. Only thing what was missing there were quality and colors. If this two things are done, I don't see any point of making another PT-garbage with OT. On your place I would left it, wait till Adywan fix important things and enjoy my life.

And remember - I am not attacking you. I simply don't understand this whole Lucas blaming if your doing then even worse garbage than he did and then saying "I loved the unchanged OT".

Sorry for my poor english, but I'm not a native english speaker.

Well this isn't the place for purists. I cannot help but stress this every time people start going off, but this is a FAN EDIT section. If you absolutely hate it, go to the PRESERVATION EFFORTS.

We don't hate the SE, we just hate the fact that he didn't release the OT in high quality.

Preferentially I prefer to see the puppet we all know and love in ESB:R BUT with Ady's emoting tweaks... 25 years is a long time and facial changes do occur (I mean look at someone's pic from 25 years ago and of course you'll see plenty of facial changes).

 

Yeah, but bone reconstruction? The cheekbones and forehead are drastically different between the CGI Yoda and the Puppet Yoda.

Hmm person same isn't he?

Even the revisited saga cant take this way, i hope that future releases will reconsider the design ;)

I think this looks awesome. I appreciate the original puppet, but I love this mockup. This is what the prequel Yoda should have looked more like.

 

I think it would really bridge the Sagas like the EU never could. And I say I like this because it is more realistic of a change than to re film a puppet in the prequels.

I have proposed on several occasions that they should scan the original puppet for use in the PT. They have 3D scanners that could do the job perfectly. It would be amazing. They could even scan the puppet for the skin of the model. It would take just a little tweaking to make him a little younger, but he was still around 800 years old in PT.

I hope not, getting a person who actually pays attention to the OT yoda should make the CGI yoda for the PT.

GL will most likely do that, but I think the PT Yoda is the only thing that needs replacing.

The OT is perfect and should be left alone. If he is going to destroy his films, he should destroy the ones nobody likes.

How do you make these things sharper? (and I know it's not just the "sharpen" tool cos that causes all kinds of other problems)

It's awesome! I mean I'm good at photoshop but making things sharper and making it look GOOD has always eluded me other than using A LOT of liquify and moving lines individually... Please let me know, I have personal pics I'd love to sharpen. lol

Strangely enough, all he does is run the default Sharpen operation a couple times.  We got his secret a month or so ago.  The picture has to be clear to get that much clearer, fuzzy pictures will always look off.

Yes, Angel's strict use of HD sources is the reason the shapener doesn't screw up the images. If you use low quality, it just makes the pixels more visible.

Spaceballs 2010: The Re-Revisited Special Edition ON HOLD
Time

I am going to scrap this project and start over. 1080p in after effects is causing me some problems. It is crashing constantly and way too slow.

720p will look great and will make this go by alot faster and easier on my computer.

If I had money I would buy a more capable computer, but seeing as I don't have to nickles to rub together, this is going to be a no budget edit.

Hell, Ady is doing his work in 720p and doing a damn good job of it. I know it can handle 720p without any problems. So, here is to the future and a much sooner edit release.
