Hal 9000

Sounds like this project would be better served to leave Lando’s introduction in Panama. Though I used a foreign language track to replace the muppety “okay!” line with something milder.

And I think pacing-wise they may have made a good move structuring there opening as Kylo > Falcon > Rey.

And yeah, I haven’t removed Rey handing Leia the saber. I don’t see any reason to aside from the continuity error. But, do you happen to already have a clip posted of the change? What all are you cutting? I know the Leia footage is fleeting and so I hate to cut it down.

I know at least DominicCobb and I are making that change. But I don’t think Leia should appear visibly unless you move her body disappearing to earlier.

Being worked on, the music cue is the issue. I can’t wait for that to be audibly polished.

I did a version of this with cleaner audio. I know some people didn’t like my transition, but it should be clean enough to re-work.

Your version sounds fine, but I think the issue is that Hal wanted to use the extended jump without TIEs that skenera and poppasketti worked on. I think ya’ll are probably looking for something more like this with the audio:

That might be the best I’ve heard so far. Could you send me the audio?

Is there a consensus about whether to move the first Falcon sequence to between “I’ll earn your brother’s saber” and “the Falcon’s back”?

And I hadn’t really considered removing Lando but doing so makes sense and would make that middle chunk a little less cluttered. Any against?

Amen.

Thanks, man.

Thanks, jonh! And thanks for providing the alternate Obi-Wan shot. I like how the added glow makes the slight aging applied to Anakin a little more noticeable.

Jake, did you do anything fancy to do those cross fades?

Shaped like CGI dinosaurs.

Just parent and child, yes.

Gotcha. Axlanian is putting one together already, and I’m planning to just add any additional submissions myself, even if they have to be a little quieter maybe. If you’d like to try that’d be fine, but just know he’s also already been getting that going.

Sure, I can update that. Were you wanting to play around with them?

Edit: done.

Sent!

I would prefer to keep the Rey-Ben saber pass not to have the cross fade because it telegraphs something it might telegraph too strongly what’s going on. I think the moment invites the viewer to be a little unsure if they’re communicating at first.

I could imagine having two or three of these as Leia reaches out to Ben, though. Nice idea!

Hmm, or maybe as Leia reaches out to him before losing the will to live…

Thanks for continuing to give this attention and care. I like how you have Luke lowering his arm while vanishing. It reminds me of how in the Trek movies they made a point to have people move while the transporter effect is going on, so it feels more convincing and because they could at that point.

I’m happy to use what you’re happy with. The close up of Kenobi seems weird to me, it feels different than the other three. Any reason for that change over the initial version you did?

Nice! What was the source of the music? Did you slow down the speed yourself or was it like that?

It’s a nice surprise, for sure! It’ll be nice at some point to watch through the whole set.

I’m not going anywhere, just magnetically sealing the SW project for my own good.

I tend to obsess over things, and setting a boundary for myself would be healthy. Maybe some other non-SW project could come up, but for me I have considered these to be a few long-term projects rather than hobbies. They just… went on for a long time!

Both, once TROS:A is finished.

I imagine I’ll go on a self-imposed break for at least a little while, but I’ve got no reason not to hang around here. I’ve already been here 17 years!

Hey, save it for the end. Lol

Have attachments, and avoid spirituality because the first time someone gets angry everyone else dies.

Thanks, guys. I say that not because I haven’t enjoyed this! Just that it’s important for it to have a definite, approachable endpoint.

And anyone is welcome to send in audio clips right up until the last minute! I should be able to fold an indefinite number in, worst case being very quiet.

And I’m tentatively planning to have the DOTF over the duel in an alternate audio track at least, so please send anything you have in mind, SkeletonPack!

Adywan is an order of magnitude more of a powerhouse, working with all aspects of moviemaking. I just drag things around in a NLE and ask people nicely for things.

I apologize for the bump, but I wanted to declare, for my own sanity, an official ‘seal’ against further tweaking:

I will NOT revise this project any further, regardless of good ideas, new resources, or perceived flaws unless each of the following condition is met:

• Genuine HD versions of the DVD deleted scenes become available (no upscale)

This goes for all three prequel films. I won’t bump each one.

Consider this a binding magical spell that can’t be broken without that condition being met. An absolute prerequisite.
