My condolences as well. Best to you.

Well, turns out not tonight.

Tonight I plan to give this edit it’s true test: watching it with the proverbial “someone’s mom.” It forces me to see it through virgin eyes. Now that there are subtitles we can.

I gotta imagine any system this thing would ever play on would not make any appreciable difference between the two.

Or perhaps dub only dialogue that comes through Fett’s helmet, regardless of whose.

Sorry to hear that. Hoping you’re able to be with your family.

Also, thought this was funny. Inevitable, but funny.

They forgot to dub all stormtroopers with Temuera Morrison.

That was a thoroughly enjoyable hour of television. It’s so cool to see this old stuff from a mid-budget mid-70’s sci-fi movie explored and expanded.

I think it walked the tightrope of tying into the familiar without it feeling arbitrary and overly coincidental.

That sound design for the dragon was impressive, expanding on what we got in the original and ‘97SE mixes. Didn’t sound identical to a dewback but kept the core. (I went with the ‘04 DVD version of Kenobi’s kyrat call due to the sound effect implying it’s just a dewback and the ‘11 BR version being about the worst sound effect I’ve ever heard for anything.)

I apologize if I’ve already asked, but would anyone be able to provide me with Adywan’s color corrected version of the 2011 ANH Blu-Ray?

It might not be much help, but it’s available on myspleen. Not currently giving out invites. 😕

By all means, go for it!

Who was it that made an alternate opening shot for The Force Awakens where the “stars” turn out to be dust from Rey scavenging on the Star Destroyer? I have an edit idea that could really benefit from it, but I can’t find it anywhere.
I seem to remember it being on vimeo and having a really vague title like “fakeout” that made it hard to find by searching.

It happens so fast that I bet you could just cut from the opening crawl to the first motion frame of Rey pulling the thing away.
Dunno if he was the first, but I recall NeverArGreat doing that idea.

Just think of people seeing it opening night in IMAX 3D. Give people heart attacks, it would.

Sometimes I come into this thread without something already in mind, and force myself to come up with something.

Flip the entire Ach-To sequence in TROS to a mirror image, add a glove to Luke’s hand and add mechanical sound effects when its used.

By all means. Sending now.

Burbin has completed the English and Spanish language subtitles, with French to come soon.

So, I believe that only leaves DTS audio (incoming from ChainsawAsh) and cover artwork (forthcoming from Movies Remastered). Then I can release V1!

Could you send me them So I could start portuguese ones?

PM sent!

No need to hurry! But it looks like the wait is nearly over.

Ah, and that tv spot appears to simply edit in “Skywalker” from the line I was thinking of. Should be able to do it yourself better than pulling in audio from the tv spot itself.

And for color correction. If you apply skenera’s Exegol LUT at 60% for those scenes and the general LUT at about 90% for the rest, it should be pretty close.

#5 was this really cut? I think it’s still in there. Also, was there really a TV spot with that alternate wording?

EDIT: Oh, I was getting mixed up. I was thinking of the line as Palpatine tosses Ben down the pit.

Fun as that sounds, it’d be very difficult for me to put together 3 hours of contiguous time for it. That’s all right, but I agree it’d be fun!

Sounds like a good lineup! 😉

And as far as I’m concerned, The Coaxium Heist with the original opening reinstated rather than a crawl is what I’d like best.

I haven’t been in this thread in a while. Jason, if you’re reading, thanks for everything. Yours has been a screen name familiar to me for a very long time.

Godspeed, Rebel.

Replace all 3PO dialogue with George Lucas clips.
