I feel like this would kinda diminish the surprise of seeing it in Empire.
It’d be nice if I could stream it on like google drive or something. I downloaded it but my computer wasn’t able to play it (it’s able to play 1080p but not 4K).
I’m done, Rendering it now.
If you want it just PM me.
FYI it’s ProRes, so its rather large.
Wow, already?! That’s awesome! Does it have the reanimated blaster bolts and new visual effects or just the color correction?
I did just realize tho, that would mess with the “Set the course to Alderaan” scene, unless the intention was to replace that one with the one you suggested
Removing the “let it burn” line also retains Tarkin’s cruelness by having it so he doesn’t destroy Alderaan because Sidious told him too but because he’s just that petty and cruel
Thanks! And come to think of it, it’d be best to cut out “let it burn,” partly because menacing lines about letting stuff burn are a more modern trope that might feel out of place in the original film, but mostly so it’s not a completely foregone conclusion that Alderaan is toast regardless of whether Leia cooperates.
Yeah that’s a good idea. I also think it’d be cool to add a shot of Vader watching as to not show Prydes face and also to just acknowledge that he’s there.
Random, admittedly half-baked idea: turn the TROS scene of Palpatine talking to Pryde into an ANH scene of Palpatine talking to Tarkin. Don’t know how feasible that would be, but it might be a good way of incorporating the Emperor into an alternate version of the only Lucas movie in which he doesn’t appear:
“The princess of Alderaan has disrupted my plan. But her foolish act will be in vain…send the Death Star to a world they know. Let it burn.”
That actually sounds pretty cool!
NEW UPDATE:
Ive been thinking about it, and I think I should restart this edit. work will restart on monday.
sorry about the heart attack 😬,
Yayyyyyyyyy! Wdym by restart? Like restart from scratch or continue where you left off?
May I ask how do you the effect where you add a force field to the openings in the Death Star? Since you’re not doing the scene where Vader arrives I’d like to maybe attempt to do it myself.
SAD UPDATE:
this is something I don’t want to do and I’m still regretting it, but I’ve decided to cancel this project…
The reason is crystal clear: considering Ady’s and Hal’s efforts this project is basically obsolete. I will be releasing what I’ve completed so far which is quite a lot, The editing/fixes/audio are done, all that’s left is just R2’s light’s, lasers blasts, lightsabers as well as others, so unless you’re a sucker for continuity then this cut will suffice. this plan will also let me finish my other project: GOUT RESTORED which I think doesn’t have any competition and needs finishing. I may do a V2 of this project, later on, this time sourcing from the 19SE source, but that is still up for debate. so that is it folks if you want the cut then just pm me.
Big sad was looking forward to this
I’m kinda a sucker for continuity as well as new visual effects
when will the full version be done?
For the scene when Luke surrenders himself to Vader, is it still being considered changing Vader’s line from “Obi-Wan once thought as you do” to “Your mother once thought as you do”?
I’ve expressed a want for this change I think it would be beautiful. I kinda forgot what people said tho
There’s also this
Throne room.
https://vimeo.com/637435337
Recolored interior, blackened windows area, recolored Palpatine’s eyes, added atmosphere to Endor.
Looks excellent! I think it’d be good if the atmosphere was also on the left side of the planet but overall I really like it. The coloring of the throne room is great.
Since deleted scenes won’t be reinserted for ROTJ:R, I’d like to attempt a restoration on them, such as upscaling, film scratch cleanup, etc., for when it’s completed.
I wouldn’t attempt going at the Tatooine Sandstorm sequence as that scene IMO is unnecessary, but I might go ahead at it for the sake of it.
I would love for the additional Vader vs. Luke footage to be restored to extend the fight
Yayyyyyyyyyy!
Will you be putting the main red Yavin planet in the background of shots? I loved that change in Revisited, made the battle look more visually interesting
When do you think this project will be complete?
Perfect
Why do people have a problem with Praxis rings? I think it gives the explosion more punch
It looks nice, but tbh I don’t understand why people don’t just stick with Adywan’s. It’s like the only one that shows where that asteroid field comes from
I have a copy of that, do you want it?
I’d like it
Your version of ANH is probably going to be my favorite until we get Adywan’s
