Lets see if i remember about props:

 

A space slug mouth interior with pointy like stalagmites teeth to replace the old one.

This particular one split opinion over a few pages a while back where the look of the teeth were concerned.  Some liked the idea, while others (including myself) definately didn't. 

Adywan didn't confirm or deny anything at the time.

I quite liked the possibility of having them 'retract out' slowly when we first see them in the distance through the Falcon's windows, just before Leia says her "The cave is collapsing" line.  However, I always just thought that this was a pretty unusual situation for the 'inexperienced' (?) Princess to have understood perfectly at that exact moment....but would when the Falcon got a bit nearer to them, so I was always fine with them not 'retracting out' of the 'gumline' too, or looking anything other than teeth in the whole scene.

Whatever happened to 'every little bit helps'? ;) I personally send what I feel I can justify in sending at the time, which is the way it should be for everyone, innit? Last donation I gave was a modest £10, I believe, and I didn't think 'what's the point?' Sure, the shopping list might be nice to see, but I hope people don't feel pressured to give beyond their means.

 

Right, but wouldn't you feel stupid if you sent him $20 when sending him $25 was what he needed to move on to the next step? 

Surely it can be assumed that others are contributing too, and no-one except Adywan knows how much each individual here has donated, but it's all helping towards whatever is required?

I guess there's not a precise amount that Adywan can say at the moment, except he'll need as much help as possible, up until the point he lets us know he doesn't need any more.  There's ongoing materials needed for the further 'Revisited' instalments into the future, after all....

Anyone that donates from today will have a chance to have a cameo in ESB:R. There are a limited amount of places i can insert members, but i need to go through the whole movie to determine the exact amount. So, if there are more donations than places, another draw will take place. But its probably about 20 places to give you some idea. Plus each person that donates will get to see the behind the scenes footage a MONTH before anyone else once the footage is completed.

While that 'cameo' idea sounds fun, it's a little scary that we might end up seeing 'replacement' faces that may be more at home in the Cantina Bar for all we know!

Although the project itself should be incentive enough for anyone, that early 'behind the scenes footage' suggestion sounds a winner to me, although I like the idea of an 'unreleased' clip being a possible option sometime too.

I see you're using the smiley then!  :)

I'm working my ass off on this edit and rarely have more than 4 hours sleep, sometimes doing about a 48 hours stint to complete a shot. Doing the model and miniature set work on this is the practice i need for when i get to ROTJ:R.  The amount of miniature replacement work for that one is a hell of a lot more than i need to do for this one.

You're obviously getting a lot of satisfaction doing this project, but don't burn yourself out fellah.  You seem to have an amazing workrate on this stuff judging by what you've done on all this already, but we wouldn't want you exhausted over it.

It's great that you've ended up doing so many imaginative fixes to this, compared to the 'just a few changes' that were initially thought required when you began.  This is going to end up another very special edition indeed.

I reckon you should add Enigma's neat 'It'll be done when it's done, not a moment before' smiley to your signature from hereonin.

That Vader 'helmet neck' is just one of the many appreciated subtle fixes that make this all worth however long it takes.  It looks great. 

And your plans for ROTJ sound immense....  :)  Now put your feet up a little.  

Tobar -  yeah, I aways liked the look of that original 'apartment' artwork too.  It ended up looking very different in the GOUT version, and the SE version at least tied things in a bit better with the actual ceiling as seen from inside the apartment's interior.  There was still some issues though.  Here's a shot that Sevb32 posted that shows how things could match that artwork even more -  http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/4093/building2q.jpg

And here's one of the posts at the time that included a shot of how the GOUT version looked like in comparison -  http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/STAR-WARS-EP-V-REVISITED-EDITION-ADYWAN-NEW-TRAILER-AVAILABLE-NOW/post/350723/#TopicPost350723

The whole 'Leia's window' /'apartment building layout' nightmare was considered at length with some interesting ideas from pages 289 ( http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/STAR-WARS-EP-V-REVISITED-EDITION-ADYWAN-NEW-TRAILER-AVAILABLE-NOW/post/350613/#TopicPost350513 ) onwards until page 296, where Adywan clarified what may happen at this point in the movie.  Personally I'm keen to see the 'roof' detail removed from the SE version, as Sevb32's example showed.

I say get rid of the tree traps and replace them with pits and the like.  Trees can still be a factor - Scout Walker steps into a pit; as Scout Walker's leg sinks down halfway, ground starts to cave ala a sinkhole; as the rest sinks in, the trees on either side topple over on top of the SW, crushing and blowing it up.

I still say give the Ewoks something explosive to account for getting through the Stormtrooper armor - be it explosive arrow heads and bolas. Maybe even having a scene where one Ewok raises his hand and we see retractable claws pop out and THEN he jumps on top of the Stormtrooper, followed by other Ewoks.  Blood wouldn't have to be shown, though some nice tearing and squishing sounds could be used ala AMERICAN WEREWOLF or something to get the idea across.  Remember that Koalas are pretty damn cute too, but have sharp claws for climbing trees and can get pretty pissed off.

The idea is that these are primitive creatures fighting advanced tech. Sticks and stones versus hi-tech. That was the whole point Lucas went with them instead of the original Wookies.

Just because the Ewoks are supposed to be a primitive tribe doesn't mean they can't improvise or use their intelligence to work around the technology of the Empire.  Also keep in mind that Lucas was originally set to direct APOCALYPSE NOW (until he got the go-ahead to do STAR WARS) and it is more or less his general ideas for AN working their way into STAR WARS - so the corollary can also be the Vietnamese versus the American army/ Mujahadeen versus the Russians/ Partisans versus the Nazis.

There also has to be a realistic means of the Ewoks being able to defeat the Empire - just having bows and arrows wouldn't be enough.  There would have to be something that gives the Ewoks simply the ability to win.

Thing is, these tree-dwellers are effectively at a 'stone age' level of evolvement.

As they seem to be quite 'territorial' (and ready to eat anyone!), they may have had the odd scirmish with some Imperial Troops previously, when they first arrived to build their various permanent structures such as the 'shield bunker' and 'landing platform'.

If the Ewoks did tangle with them initially in the past, they would have probably been dealt with quite ruthlessly and easily, and have had to retreat away from these bases that the more advanced humanoid incomers have set up for themselves.  The Ewoks certainly wouldn't have liked it, and would hold a grudge as some of their number may have been killed.

They can be aggressive, and in the meantime have cobbled together certain things like ground catapaults and other defenses as best they can to put up another fight again if need be, but mainly they have kept safely away from the Imperials.  When Luke and co. got caught in one of their nets, they may have thought that they'd caught a few unlucky stragglers who were part of these ruthless interlopers, and were happy to cook them up....

Although basic, the Ewoks were probably quite prepared at this point with their various defense / survival tactics and weaponry to keep the Imperials at bay as best they could, by the time that C3PO ended up giving them the impetus to have another go at them....

EyeShotFirst -  Lol, but I'm quite happy to accept a little bit of 'cuteness' when it comes to the young 'uns.

Just wanted to add my 2 cents to this, since it's been brought up.

The concept of forest-dwelling, very diminutive, furry critters that are able to kick Imperial Troop's butt using primitive weapons was fine in itself....but did they have to end up looking so damned 'teddybear'-like?.... -  http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/b/b7/Ewoks-endor.jpg

I just wish that more of them had the kind of facial look (and headgear) that 'Teebo' has as we first see Luke and co. surrounded by the Ewoks.  The fur that overlaps the top of his nose is a detail that I'd have liked to have seen on the majority of them too, as I was never keen on how prominent the noses look on the final Ewok costumes. -  http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/thumb/4/4f/Teebo_rotj.jpg/250px-Teebo_rotj.jpg

Maybe a bone / tooth 'adornment' sticking through a nostril on a couple of them would add a little something?

But the main thing that I reckon could make them look just a little bit more 'fiercesome' overall, would be to blacken out some of the ridiculous 'chipmunk'-like teeth in a few of them, and just give them a couple of upwardly protruding teeth from the bottom of their mouths instead.  Here's a couple of examples of something along the lines of what I mean -

http://swyattart.deviantart.com/art/Wolfman-2009-136133505

http://brainfuel.tv/postimages/king_kong.jpg

Maybe some deeper-sounding noises and dialogue would have improved things too, along the way.

I do happen to like this particular ewok illustration though, which has an 'eye-patch' added.  That would make a neat addition to one of them too. -  http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/File:Ewok-SWGTCGAoD.jpg

They both know who they’re talking about, right?

VADER: What is thy bidding, my master?

EMPEROR: There is a great disturbance in the Force.

VADER: I have felt it.

EMPEROR: We have a new enemy.    

VADER: Yes, my master.

EMPEROR: He could destroy us.

VADER: He's just a boy. Obi-Wan can no longer help him.

EMPEROR: The Force is strong with him. The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi.

VADER: If he could be turned, he would become a powerful ally.

EMPEROR: Yes. He would be a great asset. Can it be done?       ( with the 2nd "Yes of course - Imp ;) )

VADER: He will join us or die, my master.     

 

cap, I think it does depend on whether you think they both know who they are talking about before the conversation is started....or not.  And whether the events seen and heard in the prequels muddy the waters a bit with the original dialogue....or not.

However, having thought about the original dialogue a bit more, and the exact order of each response said by both characters, I guess that Vader probably does know that the very Force-powerful Emperor has 'sensed' that it's actually Luke (who's Force-'influence' has increased greatly thanks to Yoda's teaching at this point in the movie) that has caused the "...great disturbance in the Force" that he's on about....before the Emperor goes onto confirm this disturbance is caused by "...Luke Skywalker" in his next response.

Going by his first response, I also reckon that Vader probably does also know that it is indeed Luke that is causing the "...great disturbance in the Force" too by now, even before he's contacted....and I think he probably KNOWS that the Emperor will believe that by now too, considering he knows how Force-sensitive Vader is.

Although Vader continues to respond 'grovellingly' with the "Yes, master" line as his answer to the Emperor's "We have a new enemy...Luke Skywalker", it could certainly be argued that this brief, 'submissive' agreement hides ulterior motives and he's waiting (and interested) to see what else the Emperor is going to go on to say about the matter before he says anymore himself.

So, as in your example above, I now agree that it could work equally well even if the Emperor DOESN'T specifically say something like "...Luke Skywalker" / "...young Skywalker" / **cough** "...the young rebel, Skywalker" **cough**, after he says "We have a new enemy".  As I now agree that Vader probably DOES know who the Emperor is on about at the start of the conversation after all, and the fact it is certainly clarified by the Emperor during his later responses...then I guess It just becomes a 'stylistic' / 'does it sound better' kind of choice whether Adywan decides to 'emphasise' it during the Emperor's 2nd line or not.  I'm not fussed as I reckon it works just as well either way now.

I also now think that the fact this dialogue and scene appears so late in the movie, doesn't conflict in any way with the fact that Vader (and by extension, the Emperor - it's his Fleet after all) is already looking for Luke from the start of the movie, whether just purely as part of the Rebel Alliance as a whole, since he's become a 'figurehead' for it, according to the 'intro. scroll'...nor even if Vader alone (or the Emperor too), had 'seperate agendas' from the start of the movie where Luke's 'possibilities' were concerned.  It's only because of Luke getting VERY Force-powerful by this stage of the movie that brings about this particular conversation about his potential danger to their Sith setup, no matter what they may have discussed in the past about going after him or not. 

The original dialogue can be seen to work well as a case of 'misdirection' and 'gamesmanship' between the two, despite the prequel events.  So no "How is that possible?" question needed from Vader after all, to upset the applecart of what he wants the Emperor to believe at this point (his unwavering loyalty and agreement), for the sake of trying to tie things together.  The original dialogue can still be seen to make complete sense without any rearranging or retconning for the prequels as the SE attempted misguidedly to do.

Well, on the modelling side of things,  i've been building the skeleton for the new Wampa puppet. The jaw was a bit tricky to get a more natural movement than was in the original puppet and make it look like a real jaw bone and not something that just pops open. The facial sculpture of the Wampa is complete and the mould has been made ready for the latex to be applied.  I've made the head section so that it can be worn by a person, although they wouldn't be able to see out of it. The puppet is going to be a head and shoulders, the same as the original, but unlike the original it is also going to feature a section of the arms. When he swings at Luke in the opening shots i want the audience to be able to see the shoulder movement and part of the arm lashing out.

On the video side of things, well what i have been working on is top secret. This is going to be something that i won't be revealing until the movie is released.

All kinds of anticipated awesomeness featured in this recent post...

Hey, I quite like all that too! 

I'd still prefer your version to have Vader say "Yes, I have felt it", and his other line start with "How is that possible?" though.  ;)

Can't believe I missed Adywan's confirmed 2nd Emperor "Yes", but I've added it now.  :)

I added another alternative into my post above, but I'm pretty sure we'll be hearing something akin to Adywan's trailer at the end of the day, which works just fine.

VADER: What is thy bidding, my master?

EMPEROR: There is a great disturbance in the Force.

VADER: I have felt it   Yes, I have felt it.   (the "Yes" would be used from the eliminated line below.  No biggie, I just prefer it still to be used)

EMPEROR: We have a new enemy...the young rebel, Skywalker.  ("...Luke Skywalker" or "...young Skywalker" works fine too)

VADER: Yes, my master.   He's just a boy, Obi-Wan can no longer help him.  (elimates one of the 3 "grovelling'? '...my master" lines)

EMPEROR: He could destroy us.

VADER: He's just a boy. Obi-Wan can no longer help him.   How is that possible?  (from SE - He could be 'feigning' ignorance of his full knowledge of Luke here!  Who knows?...)

EMPEROR: The Force is strong with him. The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi.

VADER: If he could be turned, he would become a powerful ally.

EMPEROR: Yes...yes, he would be a great asset. Can it be done?

VADER: He will join us or die, my master.

Or some alternative 'double-dealings' -

VADER: What is thy bidding, my master?

EMPEROR: There is a great disturbance in the force.

VADER: I have felt it.  Yes, I have felt it.

EMPEROR: We have a new enemy...the young rebel, Skywalker  (or "...Luke Skywalker" or "...young Skywalker")

VADER: Yes, my master.   How is that possible?

EMPEROR: He could destroy us.  The Force is strong with him.  The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi.

VADER: He's just a boy. Obi-Wan can no longer help him.

EMPEROR: The Force is strong with him.  The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi.  He could destroy us.

VADER: If he could be turned, he would become a powerful ally.

EMPEROR: Yes...yes, he would be a great asset.  Can it be done?

VADER: He will join us or die, my master.  (or just "He will join us or die!")

Okay, in addition to my comments on the previous page, here's a last alternative from me to think about, that rearranges things about slightly, but still retains more of the original's vibe than the SE's, and still keeps a little mystery about the amount of knowledge that Vader and the Emperor have of each others motives.

The 2 things this layout does is get rid of one of the "...my master" lines that Vader repeats three times, which strikes me as a bit 'over-deferential' for such a short conversation, or just plain 'sarcastic'!  One at the beginning, and one at the end seems fine, although I like the idea of just removing the last one instead (if the original conversation is kept), so that Vader's line ends with his menacing (and deliberately misleading ?) reply to the Emperor that "He will join us or die!"

The other is the inclusion of "How is this possible?" line from the SE dialogue, so that things DO tie in with the damned prequels at some point...well, assuming Adywan keeps certain dialogue and events between the Emperor and Vader somewhat as is....

Anyway, just some random thoughts and I'm just happy we're not getting that whole SE conversation!

VADER: What is thy bidding, my master?

EMPEROR: There is a great disturbance in the Force.

VADER: I have felt it.

EMPEROR: We have a new enemy...the young rebel, Skywalker.

VADER: Yes, my master.

EMPEROR: He could destroy us.

VADER: He's just a boy. Obi-Wan can no longer help him.

EMPEROR: The Force is strong with him. The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi.

VADER: If he could be turned, he would become a powerful ally.

EMPEROR: Yes...yes, he would be a great asset. Can it be done?

VADER: He will join us or die, my master.

 

Having giving a listen to all the various versions, I reckon there could be enough spiteful 'inflection' in the words "The young rebel" and "Skywalker" that is spoken in the SE dialogue that could be combined to make a good-sounding 'beat' that matches and flows well with the rest of the "We have a new enemy..." line.

Like others, I thought about removing either "...Luke Skywalker" or "...young Skywalker" from the sentance altogether too, as the 'beat' of the dialogue still sounds good without it, before Vader eventually replies "Yes, my master".  But I ended up thinking that without clarification of exactly who the Emperor means before Vader responds "He's just a boy...Obi-wan can no longer help him", that the Emperor might reply "Not that brat Luke you fool!, I'm on about ANOTHER enemy we've got to contend with!"

The problem is that because the movie has shown Vader actively searching for Luke by the time this late scene occurs, the Emperor's message gives the impression that he's only NOW discovered that this Luke Skywalker fellah could be a serious problem, and didn't know that Vader was already on his own agenda looking for him while chasing the 'Rebel Alliance' with the Emperor's fleet since the start of the movie....  So I don't think Vader would jump the gun and give away the fact that he knows exactly who the Emperor means by saying "He's just a boy...Obi-wan can no longer help him", WITHOUT the Emperor mentioning his name first.  Although it could be argued that this scene was just oddly structured late into the movie in the first place, rather than early on, I prefer the scenario where the whole scene can be seen has having various possible 'suspicion'/'deception' connotations between the two characters at this point, since the Emperor MAY have only decided to let Vader know at this particular point that he's aware about Luke's potential...but ACTUALLY knew much sooner, and decided not to emphasise it with Vader until this point...for devious reasons...

It's hard to say just HOW much they discussed about Luke before this point, and not that obvious that Vader should be seen to know exactly who the Emperor is on about unless he tells him.  If they are already on the same page about it all, then it seems that "We have a new enemy..." would be an strangely unneccessary thing for the Emperor to say to him this late into the game.  On the other hand, by bringing it up at this late stage and saying something like "...the young rebel, Skywalker" at this point in the proceedings could imply that the Emperor (and Vader?) has indeed ONLY JUST become aware that this particular rebel (who just happened to be the guy who managed to blow up their Death Star) was 'turning' (Force-wise) into a bigger danger than originally thought, and that they were on the same page from earlier in the movie as far as concentrating on their 'main' enemy - 'The Rebel Alliance' in general, with this Luke guy as just an extra 'bonus' amongst them, to begin with...

My head hurts!...

Anyway, I really dislike the new retconned SE dialogue changes, so even if my own slight alteration above doesn't come about, I'm more than happy to hear either "...Luke Skywalker" or "young Skywalker " instead, as long as the Emperor still says who he means to Vader first.

To me, the MOST grating thing about the Jar Jar character was undoubtedly the voice / histrionics (and some of the dialogue) supplied by Ahmed Best (and George Lucas).

The likes of Magnoliafan's subtitled version changed things entertainingly, but because he speaks so many times throughout TPM, it ends up a LOT of subtitles to read, and there is STILL the issue that an alternative 'alien dialogue voice' that really sounds easy on the ears would be needed if things are subtitled, considering we'd still HEAR him so much throughout.  The main advantage of this route is that any kind of totally new 'dialogue' can be given to Jar Jar....as Magnoliafan showed with his foul-mouthed version, lol!

Of course, a total 'redub' using someone else's voice ALSO means that totally new dialogue can be added if required too.  Any kind of 'accents' aside, I just wish that a DEEP-sounding voice had been given to Jar Jar in the first place. 

Personally, I always wished that this main character in the first prequel had been voiced in the same kind of gruff way as the Captain Tarpals gungan was.  (But then I'd also have preferred Jar Jar's  CG character to have had the 'greenish' gungan colouring too, rather than the 'orange' they went with.)

This overly dumbed-down character truly ended up being the unwanted red-headed step-child to many unfortunately.  And even if George insisted that his most prominent CG character JUST HAD to be doing foolish schtick throughout, I reckon his 'target-audience' of young kiddies would STILL have taken to Jar Jar if he'd been made a bit more DIGNIFIED-sounding.  He would also have probably ended up a lot more tolerable to most anyone older....

Ironically, I remember when I first read that TPM was going to feature a fully-CG'd 'alien' character throughout as a MAIN cast member, thinking at the time that this would be groundbreakingly amazing , and one of the things I most looked forward to seeing in the prequel.... -  http://brianorndorf.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee7b642883300e553785e6b8834-500pi

I think the shot is fine the way it is. The attention is focused on where it needs to be. Luke clinging to dear life!

If the deactivating saber needs to be put in, I like the idea of it happening when Luke gets sucked out the window

Er....I think you'll see in the post I quoted, that I did say that I'd like to see it 'deactivating' during the shot that Luke goes backwards through the window....

To be honest, it wouldn't even need to be in the position where vaderios showed in his nice mock-up, but could even be a mere glimpse of the last remnant of the blade's deactivation added to a bit of the debris seen in the shot, seeing as the shot itself is so brief.  I don't even think a 'deactivation' sound effect is necessary as the wind howls so loudly during the shot it would be drowned out anyway.

I don't know if you've got round to working out what you want to do with this particular scene yet, but here's a possible solution to Luke's 'missing' Lightsaber as he crashes through the 'window' during his duel with Darth.

His sabre is already on the gantry in the birds eye shot so no fix needed for this (Oh and the pics posted are just for reference.  No colour correction has been done on these.  i just brightened them so you can see them better)

ImperialFighter said:

Hands up all those in the world that didn't notice it there before.... (mine certainly is!) Throughout numerous viewings on various screens and displays in the past, I just didn't realise that was meant to be it, lol. Having checked both GOUT and SE releases, I find it is still not obvious as the Lightsaber due to it's position and shadowing. I always thought that particular object was an item with a 'hose'/'tubing' attachment lying there with the other debris, rather than the hilt lying ON TOP of 'hose'/tubing'....and obviously could have done with your yellow arrow in the past!

Ady, I am using a very nicely set up television screen with excellent colour, brightness and contrast levels adjusted, and the whole gantry walkway on the SE release is coloured/shadowed in such a way where the shadowed Lightsaber seems to merge into it too much to be obvious. It does seem more noticeable in your vibrantly-coloured shot above though, especially with that arrow! Even though this seems to be it, the shot is so brief that your eye is distracted by either the struggling Luke in the centre, or the flashing gantry light on the left.  I would ask you to consider moving it over a bit nearer where Luke is clinging on, which is the area viewers focus on, so that it's more easily seen as a stand-alone item. If you choose to leave it where it is, then I would ask that you perhaps 'bring it out' a bit from the shadowing and 'hose'/tubing' beside it.

I'd still love to see an added 'falling' Lightsaber deactivating near Luke as he goes backwards through the window though, so that it's easily identifiable amongst the debris during that brief shot....because it could be a very neat-looking, subtle addition to the proceedings, and help to more easily identify that it would be deactivated on the walkway seen in the 'birds-eye' shot.

And thanks for that, as I can now make the Lightsaber out! ;)

Adding a hint of a 'deactivating' saber was definately something I'd love to see too.  These were my thoughts from page 42 previously.

I've checked everything there today, and it is indeed resolved.

Thanks very much for that Jay.  :)

Hi Jay,  the one hiccup I was fearing with this latest upgrade was not being able to access a lot of stuff that I was in the middle of preparing for posting in saved 'DRAFTS'.

Well, It turns out that all the various headings / forum / date saved etc. information for each saved post is showing as normal when I click on the 'DRAFTS' button, but then I can't access ANY of them after all.... 

For each individual post I was in the process of making up with various comments and screenshots, prior to posting in the future, I'm now just getting a huge error page of technical gobbledegook (to me anyway) in their place, when I click on them.

Sure hope this is something that can be rectified eventually, and that I haven't lost the lot....

Regards.

I'm not having that problem, but this could be something that Jay's sorted since you posted about it hours ago.

But I've come across other hiccups....

Just to say that not only is that particular link showing a 'Redirect Loop' error message, but there are also OTHER links on the front 'HOME' page that are still showing that same message today, and that I am unable to access them directly from these links.

I wanted to keep the same logo animation for all of the movies but add different elements to represent each movie

That would be ideal, along with keeping the 'Imperial March' cue hopefully.
