I wish we could have seen dooku meeting sidious for the first time finding out palpatine and sidious were One in the same turning on syfo dyas starting the clone army etc. those pieces shouldn’t have been excluded not even remotely.
Jurassic Park is being done as it is here and I can confirm it is absolutely professional quality.

Is it ok for me to join the discord to see the progress of it?
Anybody tried to give us what prequel trilogy cgi yoda would look like with today’s cgi?
After finding out all the seasons of transformers 1984 still have their film prints out there in zaranyzerak’s video make me extremely disappointed with shout that they rather upscale them instead of giving them a real remastered. 😦
I think Shout just used the broadcast parts in place for the mistakes present in the Rhino DVD. It doesn’t look good. It looks like it was taken from a VHS
That why it’s disappointing because fixing the animation errors including a overlay error in a later season that wasn’t fixed in the broadcast release are easy to fix now a days with computers. so it’s disappointing we never got a blu ray of the series but we get both a blu ray and uhd of the 1986 movie. 😦

Is there a way to fix the continuity errors caused but the final clone wars season and the first episode of the bad batch. Kanan saying the clones said didn’t mean to turn on the Jedi. saying it was the chips that made them do it and Rex and the other clones saying they removed their chips and never turned on their Jedi.
I don’t see this as a continuity error. I mean technically speaking Rex didn’t turn on his Jedi. Ashoka was not a Jedi and Anakin had turned to the darkside at this time and although he did turn, he was saved by Ashoka and assisted in her survival.
As for the Wolf and Gregor, I’m not sure what they did. (feel free to prove me wrong here! I’m always opening to editing further!)
Wolf and Gregor removing their chips was never shown. Kanan saying the clones mentioned the chip after attacking him was also never shown.
No one has even remotely tried to do a modern cgi take on the prequel trilogy yoda at all. 😦
It’s too bad we never got a remake of both this and dragon ball like how the new Urusei Yatsura anime looks. because the art in both dragon ball and z and even some of the movies not sure on the two z specials looks bad a good sum of the time. 😦
They haven’t scanned JP1 yet, but it’s being scanned in a very different way to much higher quality. That said Retrofilm looks like they’ve improved the quality of their scanner based on that clip which is wonderful, it’s also a real-time scanner so it scans very fast compared with how these ones are being scanned.
How much more superior is it going to look compared to the uhd?

That’s not a continuity error, that’s Rex lying to himself and Kanan. He’s probably not very happy with himself for it.
What about Kanan mentioning the clones told him about the chips after they attack him and his master that was never shown so isn’t that still an error?

If only the extended cuts film prints were out there. 😦
I’m tempted to try and edit together an extended using these 35mm scans as the core. A friend has a really great program that processes natural looking film grain onto digital sources. Might try a test and see how well I can match it up. If I can find the time!
Is it possible for you to do it in 4k with hdr or Dolby vision?
If I’m able to do it it would just be in 1080.
Oh that’s disappointing I was hoping you or someone would give us uhd transfers we should have gotten from the director. 😦

No I meant why haven’t fans fixed these blunders like what your doing?Well, sometimes they do.
What I did with TMP was inspired by some Terminator 2 restoration by Sanjuro_61 (based on this last botched transfer) that added grain to it, changed colors and ended up being best looking version of the movie I’ve ever seen and the only one I rewatch since I’ve got it.
That’s a shame I wish more fans would do these kinds of fixes since the studios won’t. 😦

Can you tell me why popular films like the back to the future trilogy uhd and the et uhd haven’t been regrained like what you’re doing for Star Trek the motion picture’s directors cut?
I suppose it depends of people who make decisions, in case of TMP —>

“This is discussed in detail in the supplements. Listen to the Fein, Matessino, and Dochterman commentary track at the 1:06:40 mark (as well as the “Return to Tomorrow” supplement) where the conversation begins about the grain removal and re-introduction because it was “distracting.” It detracted from the experience, they say.”Some people think that “grain is bad”. And if it happens that the decision of what to do with particular movie is in their hands, then we may get botched transfers that doesn’t even resemble film look.
No I meant why haven’t fans fixed these blunders like what your doing?
There’s no need to do it that way, when the theatrical blu-ray generally has much less DNR (for live action), so you edit that to match the DE edition. This is what I will be doing.
Sure, you can do that and it may end up better looking, but by doing what I just did I have quite nice looking Director’s Edition made in half an hour (+ re-encoding) without any editing required and with grain in place also in DC exclusive VFX shots.

I bought the UHD and was extremely disappointed to discover it had a bunch of DNR all over it.I am currently trying to fix it (on standard Blu-ray though)
So what are doing that’s fixing this is it adding fake grain?
Exactly.
If T2 new Blu-ray look could be fixed that way, then Star Trek may be fixed too.
Why hasn’t anyone done this for not only the back to the future trilogy uhds but et too? they had bad grain reduction done too.
What would attack of the clones and revenge of the sith cgi yoda look like with modern cgi?

All these original music restored edits make me wish is that the copyright laws were updated to not punish the fans of these classic shows and movies like all that Pete and Pete baywatch Wayne’s world with the stairway to heaven and I think the Tracy ullman show. 😦
Wow this is a movie for the late 70s? it amazes me that we can improve these movies to look newer than their age.
I know it’s not likely to happen but at the rate the improvements of unreal engine 5 are going the imperfections are disappearing and it’s get harder to tell it’s fake and is making me wish the good cgi improvements in the original trilogy and even using the original 1983 version return of the Jedi’s musical number and just updating sly snootles with it. Plus update all the cgi including the characters with it but I know that’s not likely but still I never thought cgi would get to this point that the prequels and the original trilogy cgi could blend so well that it can now easily fool you.
I’ve considered Rebels: Refocused, but others have picked up that task and done it well. I don’t think its need is as intense as TCW:R as it doesn’t need to repackage itself as a more confident show, like I thought was important with this one. So it’s a maybe, but it’s a fairly low priority. I also thought about seeing what could be done if anything with Resistance, since nobody seems to have picked that one up.
What would you personally say is your go-to Rebels edit? As I finish my Way of Mandalore saga, I’ll soon move back to The Bad Batch to bring it more in line with what you did in this project. Hoping to have a combo of these three shows edited that play well together!
That said, I do naturally have plenty of other ideas:
- A lot of editing is done in isolation these days - I might try to make and maintain some kind of master document that can easily allow people to compare SW fan edits down to a shot-by-shot level. I really want to encourage us to work together much more around the releases of SW movies and shows.
That’s an amazing idea! You’re already a leader on this next generation of Star Wars edits and something like this would be a massive task, but could be a game changer for the Star Wars fan editing community. We all definitely need more collaboration in order to make it to the next level, something I’ve been mulling on for my plans in 2023.
- I like interior design and my girlfriend needs a craft room.
- I’m desperately behind on my playing of videogames.
- Oh, and I’d like to write and publish a book that’s high fantasy lovecraftian horror.
Love your work and wish you could edit full time haha, but 100% take time for yourself to get these done too. I have missed so many games I wanted to play too while working on my edits, it’s nice to take a month or two off and relax the mind. I always come back into the edits feeling refreshed and work much faster after the breaks.
Whoah, I’ve just realised something: I don’t know if this is an error, I’d assume it wouldn’t be - but near end of the final episode, Jesse says to Rex “Darth Sidious ordered us to kill the Jedi”. Shouldn’t he be saying “Chancellor Palpatine ordered us to kill the Jedi?” Surely the clones wouldn’t have been just given the information that they were controlled by a Sith Lord?
Do you guys think I should modify this?
Any chance you could make Jesse just say “He” instead of “Darth Sidious”, rather than trying to find a way to get “Chancellor Palpatine” to work? Not sure if it works well enough in the context but it would be a much easier touch up, because I do agree that is a very strange Sith name drop.
Or how about the chancellor ordered us to kill the Jedi.
I am making no visual changes.
I thought you were same fan editor that did the update to the rebels lightsabers. either way sorry If i bothered you.
