Hey, Hal. Just need to know how important Kylo Ren’s new lines are for V2, that is, if you want them, of course. Along with Luke’s line, “Leia told me that she had sensed the birth of her son at the end of her Jedi path.”
I feel like we’re getting close to V2 being done.
Yeah, it unfortunately may take a couple months, though.
Just got word back from Speaking of AI. He’s currently improving his models to make them far more expressive. It may be a while before he gets back to me with the lines.
I’d say replace the milky eyes with her regular eyes in her vision, and have them fade to Sith eyes when she flares her teeth at her during the vision duel on the Death Star.
I see that OotP is complete. 😏
Did I miss something? I don’t see it.
No. Order of the Phoenix is far from completion, unfortunately.

Yeeeeeaaaaaahhh.
Another really cool thing I’m doing is as I finish each book I’ll rewatch it’s film counterpart before reading the next book. Lots of fun and couldn’t be happier. Definitely look forward to your future enhanced versions of the audiobooks. Just curious do you prefer the books or films ? Also what’s your favourite book in the series and what’s your favourite film adaptation in the series ?
I can’t really say which I prefer, as I love both the seven books and eight films as they are. Also, I don’t really know which is my favorite book, honestly. My favorites of the movies are probably Prisoner of Azkaban and Deathly Hallows: Part 2. The third film was my favorite growing up, but I have grown to really love the last film too. Crazy to think it’s turning ten this month, and the first film is turning twenty.
Thanks man,I definitely look forward to your enhanced version of the Stephen Fry audiobook of Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix whenever you’ve released it and I someday in the future have finished books 3 and 4 and am ready to read Order of The Phoenix. Love your audiobooks so much and am just such a huge Harry Potter fan all my life and I’m currently 22. As I download the audiobooks I’ve been saving them on a USB stick since it takes quite a bit of storage to add to an iPhone and leave em,so happy you’ve started this project and I can’t thank you enough for this brother,your so amazing for doing this.
Wow! Same age as me. Nice, man. Hopefully I won’t get stuck working on Book 5, as it’s my least favorite of the seven books. Not to say that it’s bad, as I still enjoyed it.
I get that life gets in the way and we all get understandably busy,I was just curious when do you think you’ll be done Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix and uploading it to Archive.org ? I ask because I downloaded 1-4 so far and have put them on my iPhone and are listening to them as I read along with the book. I’m bought a box set of all 7 books last year and I’m currently doing my very first read of the books after seeing the movies thousands of times and owning them all on blu ray. I’m currently reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban for the book while listening to your amazing enhanced version of the Stephen Fry audiobook. Anything you know would be greatly appreciated. Just love your enhanced editions of the Stephen Fry audiobooks by the way,anyway thanks brother.
Well I really appreciate hearing how much you enjoy these projects. Unfortunately it will be some time before Order of the Phoenix is done. I have been busy with things in my real life, but rest assured, I am still working on the project. I just got another chapter done last night and will work on another today. I’m hoping that I can get it done by at least August, but I can’t say for sure. I’ll let everyone know when it is done.
Just sent the lines and video to Speaking of AI. Hopefully I’ll hear back from him soon.
So I got real busy with my personal life today, unfortunately. Tomorrow, I promise I will send Speaking of AI the lines. Here is the video I will be sending him just in case anyone here had anything to say about it.

I’m still worried about “You’ll die instead.” I don’t think we’ll be able to pull it off with the lip sync, and I think the subtextual difference from changing the line is negligible. I guess it couldn’t hurt to request it, but…
Anyway, thanks again for assembling all of this!
Honestly, I prefer what he said in the movie over this. Changing one line doesn’t drastically change the situation that much to me. I’m only adding this in the video just so others can choose how they want things to go, just like the Knights of Ren lines. These AI lines will go into the resource clip folder on Hal’s Drive.

Quick correction - it would be “No one’s ever really gone” not “Nobody’s ever really gone”. I appreciate the inclusion nonetheless!
Oh, yeah! Shoot!

Working on the video to send to him right now. I also liked the mockup that JXEditor did by having him say to Palpatine, “You’re just a clone. What could you give me?”
Isn’t deepfaking the mouth possible, to match with the mouth movements for my proposed lines?
It is possible, for sure. I just don’t know if anyone here can do it.
Also, I’ll get him to do some lines for some scenes that people have tested out in the Rey Nobody thread. Also, an idea came up for me. How would you all feel if he calls out Rey’s name at the end when she looks off into the horizon to see him, Luke and Leia?
It’s getting a bit late on my end, but I’ll send the lines and video to Speaking of AI tomorrow. If anyone has anymore lines they’d like to submit, let me know.
I’ve “re-written” the first scene with Kylo and Palps. Some of the new dialogue could be accomplished with AI.
(Yes, this also requires changing any mentions of the Final Order into the Sith Eternal.)
How exactly can this be accomplished? Both with Palpatine’s voice and having new dialogue for Kylo Ren where you see him speak the lines.
Thanks for doing that!
No problem! Also, do you think you can update my name in the Special Thanks list here from nl0428 to Master Lawdog, Hal? I think it says that in the list of names who provided voice work for the fleet as well.

Okay. How about I also send him a video that contains the scenes for where the lines belong. It may be a good reference for the tone and emotion in his voice, if the AI works out that way.
So I’d like to know what lines everybody has for me to send to Speaking of AI for the Ben Solo lines. Also, I heard RogueLeader has some ideas for the Rey Nobody version.
I’ve got a strong lead on some “I am a Jedi” audio; I’ve already messaged Sherlock about it, but I’ll need help to get a 5.1 surround sound version of the Lego Star Wars Holiday Special of all things, so I can isolate the centre channel to remove background music.
Daisy Ridley did not play Rey in that, despite Helen Sadler being a very good sound-a-like.
Hello, Master Lawdog.
These edits sounds too interesting to be true! I would love a link to have a look (and a hear) at them!
Have you made any video cuts or add-ons so that they could match the book!?
I’ll send you a private message. Also, I have not done video edits to match the audiobooks, but I have made extended editions of the films.
I can’t find them, what do I search for?
I will send you a private message.
How do I listen to the audiobooks? They sound so cool.
You can find them on Internet Archive.
What about getting an impersonator for Ben’s last couple lines? Similar to poppasketti dubbing in the new line for him, “You were right.”
