Add some real-world relatable music.
When Finn tells Rey, “We go together,” the song by that title from Grease plays on a diegetic boombox. In Huttese.
When Palpatine first speaks to Kylo Ren, “At Last” plays similarly.
This was a great comedy show. I loved Boba Fett starring as Darth Scrotum.
Hey, don’t make fun of people’s looks, okay? There are a ton of valid complaints about the show, but “Temuera Morrison is ugly” isn’t one of them.
I think he was referring to his heavy makeup during the flashback sequences to depict Sarlacc damage.
Okay.
I thought I was out of Jell-O, but I wasn’t.
There was a packet of lemon flavor, and I brewed tea into the hot water while making it. It… it was pretty good.
Sending.
I’m giving all my SW edits an upgrade for the TinyEncode versions. These have been sub-1GB each, and I’m encoding replacements that will be around 2.5-3.5GB. I’m using a slow encoding setting as well, and they will be a huge improvement.
I won’t post about them again, but they’ll all get uploaded as I finish them. No content changes, just a better encode.
Reminds me of Frink’s subtitles for. Jabba promising free Dominos pizza if Sebulba wins.
This thread is where people should post things like, “Every time Luke asks a question, mess with the pitch to make it whinier.”
The ‘Worst Ideas Thread’ is for stuff you could almost imagine someone out there would really do, like, “Dub Hayden Christensen speaking to Finn when he prepared to ram the battering ram cannon.”
The Republic is failing. As
the Galactic Senate becomes complacent,
Queen Amidala of the planet Naboo stands as a vocal champion
against corruption.
As the newly crowned Queen relies on diplomacy, the greedy Trade
Federation has blockaded her home system in an attempt to force her compliance.
The Republic Chancellor has dispatched two Jedi Knights, mystical wielders of
The Force, to
negotiate for peace…
Also, do we have any promising usable audio sources for tweaking to pitch of Amidala’s voice? I can’t do so without also changing the pitch of the whole audio channel, and it sours the music.
I feel the crawl currently being considered has way too much exposition, and would benefit from being more focused.
Also, here’s a few thoughts on reordering the climax:
They haven’t been updated in over a year, but I’ll send you the current links.
ROTJ V3 featuring Temeura Morrison yelling and grunting as Boba Fett, on its way up now.
Here’s my attempt (16 min), based on trying to minimise cognitive load whilst balancing flow and narrative energy levels. (Key highlights in bold.)
Fuck’s sake, you guys! I said I didn’t want to revisit my prequel edits!
It’s a given that there will be plenty to genuinely enjoy about the show that will make it a net positive for having existed. I just hope that by the end of it there feels like a… message?
“It seems the show is carrying a message from an Obi-Wan Kenobi. Does that series mean anything to you?”
It’s a highly anticipated “too big to fail” type of production, but I’d have been content if it had a budget only about double Ewan’s salary and took place on the gritty Tatooine surface. He has PTSD nightmares, goes on spice benders, and is a stoic drunk. Qui-Gon gets real with him from time to time and his lightsaber collects dust on his nightstand next to broken beer bottles. Maybe he comes to hate himself he tries to see how long he can stare into the Suns. Maybe have a scene in which he hurls Anakin’s lightsaber into a canyon, then after calming down takes an afternoon to climb down to retrieve it. Maybe he helps the Jawas fix their car, or cheats at gambling with Cantina regulars to cover his tab. And of course helps needy strangers by mind-tricking the well-to-do into giving pittance. No one refers to him by “Obi-Wan” ever, and he leads a quiet life filled with little adventures.
I just wanted Obi-Wan to do drugs and get drunk while having PTSD symptoms.
Jump in an X-Wing and blow something up?
Thank you for taking the time to give me some feedback, even if the project is finished.
One thought about Obi-Wan finding Kamino: he already knew where it was from Dex, which he pointed out to the librarian. So I figure he had the idea on his own that he used to get from Yoda: just go there yourself.
You make a good case for keeping the interrupted kiss, I’ll give you that.
Fell asleep trying to watch Nosferatu for its hundredth anniversary yesterday and will try to finish it tonight. Didn’t get scared yet.
^ The Seventh Seal is one of the most moving cinematic experiences of my life.
Don’t Look Up, on the other hand, was not. I enjoyed watching it and it was nice to have the time to, but it isn’t film of the year material.
Add a heart monitor to Greedo’s neck throughout the scene, with a recognizable and prominent heartbeat pattern of beeps during the whole conversation. After he is shot and Han starts to walk away, the beeps resume.
I think I even know the day I saw it the first time. This had not come to mind since I was a child, but I remembered that my grandmother gave that VHS tape to me on Valentine’s Day. I remembered associating the purple-pinkish color of the vacuum on the cover with that because of the holiday. And given landmark events in my family, it had to have been 1995. So V-day 1995 it must’ve been. I then, out of boredom and curiosity, found a list of VHS releases and videos from YouTube of the openings. The “V2” 1994 reissue put out in November’s commercials felt very familiar, so that was the VHC I had a copy of. The memories I have of watching that tape at her house have a specific range of time, all being when I was age 5. So this movie takes me way back! I’d only seen it probably five times or less after that point until recently, though two of those were as an adult.
I think it’s the one-two punch of Oxtorox’ recent efforts that have it looking better than ever and seeing it with my own kids.
It’s a reflection of the rising sun through the window on the face of a toaster. It’s from the opening scene of The Brave Little Toaster, which I’ve recently enjoyed from Octorox’ restoration efforts. It’s one my first movies as a small child and one that certainly left a formative mark.
Wonderful.
