Hey, where did you find this shot Lord Grievous? - http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/234/screenshotvegas.jpg

I somehow missed that along the way, but it sure looks terrific!  Here's how the SE version currently looks by way of comparison - http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8995/screenshot17u.png

Adywan's enhancements have transformed it, especially the colouring.

I'll cover this Bespin building soon vaderios, and that reminds me, I've come across another 'flipped' shot I never noticed before.  This time on Bespin, but it can be re-'flipped' without causing any problems I reckon.  :)

I mean come on, we've spent almost an entire page posting magnified screenshots and  repeating GIFs of the scene just to point out what this supposed error is.

And thanks to those that took the time to do that, I finally saw that I was looking at it from a wrong perspective.  So what if it took up a few posts?  You should have seen some of the things that took up pages before....  ;)

And yes Ripplin, Adywan's GIF is strangely mesmerising....  :)

Hey, you 'fixed' that one for me with the minimum of effort Adywan, lol!

Sorry for the confusion there, as I was always convinced that was a tear in the 'body stocking' that allowed for a brief glimpse of skin.  Having studied it again, I can see now that it is indeed C3PO's middle arm piece merely passing underneath the shoulder piece in that shot.  So it's not the skin after all....

I've also realised what made me think it was a piece of skin showing in the first place.  It's because we also see a large gap between the gold arm sections in this shot of C3PO flailing moments before, when Han says "Shut him up, or shut him down", as seen here -

....except we only see total 'blackness' between the sections at this point, and I think I expected total blackness in the shot I mentioned too.  However, I was definately wrong about that, and everything is actually fine.  :)

 

Just as an aside, me and the family will be tuning into the new Doctor Who series too.  Karen Gillan (the Doctor's new assistant) was born and brought up just around the corner from us, and went to the same school as my two brats.  While David Tennant is a hard act to follow for the new guy, I reckon a lot of the success of the revitalised show was down to the excellent Christopher Eccleston to begin with.  I sure wished he'd hung around for a second season after his award-winning turn!

I'm interested to see if the 'chemistry' is anywhere as successful with the two new leads, as it proved to be in the past.  But I guess it's gonna come down to how good the new stories are to begin with, what with the new showrunner in charge of things now.  Fingers crossed.

So what, you wouldn't even notice unless you already knew about it and paused the movie at that exact moment.

I think this is getting a bit *too* nitpickish.

Fixing continuity errors and bad FX is one thing, but now you're in Lucas territory.

Well that's one way to look at it LG.

Another is that Adywan has previously incorporated many very subtle fixes in his work already.  While not everything is a biggie, these little details can help to really polish the look of everything overall, if achievable, I reckon.  And as this is something that I do notice during the shot, I'm hoping it's one that can be sorted.

....and Monroville for the win in this instance!  He correctly saw that I was meaning the small section of 'fleshy skin' that is seen just below the green area that Davnes700 highlighted in the C3PO shot.  :)

You really need to see this shot in motion, but it definately seems as if the black 'body stocking' got ripped at this point between the gold parts of the costume.

 

Seraphyn, I didn't realise you were referring to something you may be doing for Adywan, but he does indeed want to keep a few things under wraps for now.  So best to check with him before you mention/show anything to do with what you are involved with.  Interesting....

Adywan, Anthony Daniel's skin just shows briefly during that shot of C3PO, as he waves his right arm up.  He seems to be wearing a black t-shirt, or body stocking, and there's a gap showing between the join near his armpit.  It would be good to see this fixed if possible.

This bigger screenshot may make it easier to see here -  http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/711/screenshot3rf.png

Great work on the list ImperialFighter :) I need to go through the main page here and update the list at some point, but i'll probably leave that until the edit is almost complete.

Will look forward to seeing some more of the confirmed changes you've decided upon at that point.  Until then, I'll try to gather as many of everyone's suggestions in general, and hope to add a further batch of them onto my list later tomorrow.

 

I don't know if it's possible to improve this in any way, or not, but there seems to be a sudden, distracting 'fogging' at the bottom of the frame during this shot of Vader and Boba Fett coming around the corner after Han is tortured -

It seems to be on the GOUT version too.  This 'fogging' also appears suddenly just as Han is lowered onto the 'torture machine', but that is less distracting as the machine lights up at that point.  No biggie however.

 

However, as far as 'continuity' errors go, we all know by now that 'Empire' has more than it's fair share.  I only noticed this one recently, and I guess it'll have to remain -

Just before Luke jumps into the water on Dagobah, he's correctly wearing the 'silver bullets' wrapped around his left leg....

....but when he climbs out of the water and stands up, the 'silver bullets' are now suddenly missing....

 

Nice work on the Rebel 'backpacks' so far, and lets hope your upheaval goes reasonably straightforward.

Crikey :) that's a pretty comprehensive list you've got there. But I know something you've missed ;)

Welcome aboard Seraphyn.

It's only the start of it, and I know of heaps I've missed so far!  ;)

Can you mention the one you know of, here, in case it's something that hasn't been brought up yet?

 

Adywan, would it be possible to 'blacken out' the little bit of Anthony Daniel's arm that shows through his C3PO costume during the shot where he says "If I may say so Sir, I noticed earlier the hyperdrive motivator has been damaged.  It's impossible to go to lightspeed." -

Okay, just to say that I've finally gotten a chance to post the start of an 'at-a-glance' update of the many various ideas previously brought up here so far, that may be useful to others following the progress of 'ESB:Revisited'.  It also includes quite a few links to previews that Adywan has shown so far.

I've been intending to lay this out for a while now, and rather than start another similar thread, I've added it onto the end of GoodMusician's one, as I thought it was as good a place as any.

It should help remind me and others of what's been brought up already, and I'll be adding a lot more onto it over the coming weeks.  It starts at post 43 on page 2 here - http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Adywans-ESB-edit-Suggestion-Terminal/post/387491/#TopicPost387491
