Yes, it looks bad so you feel dirty and uncomfortable while watching it. The epilogue is filmed in an entirely different style.
I’m gonna ignore these monolithic posts and share the IHE review/discussion of reactions overall.
The more layers you composite together with film, the grainier the shot will end up, since the grain of each layer of film is included in the composite. With digital compositing you can isolate the elements and combine them all separately, so you’re not adding grain on top of grain on top of grain.
True. But what did the SE version do to make it so clean and crisp, particularly the vents on the back end - and about that was the offensive to the restoration plan?
I thought that the tower would have to be near/at the top of the DS2, otherwise the battle would be happening above them from their perspective.
Yeah it’s the observation tower so he can look down on everyone
Sorry I say grainier as a catch-all term, it generally looks blurrier and more washed out. I’m assuming this is what it probably looked like between 1980 to 1995 but it’s been so long. Just curious on the technical differences, beyond of course just rotoscoping in GOUT elements which are poorer resolution. Unless these bits are taken directly from the older releases (specifically shots of the speeders approaching Han’s igloo, the flat angle as they go over the trenches, and the low level angle as they use the tow cable).
In ESB Despecialized the speeders on Hoth look far grainier than they did in the SE version, but how could that be? Is this just a result of recomping the effects?
Hahah thanks that was great
That can’t be true, since they don’t need to use footage that is actually in the movie…
How are we supposed to explain it in the film? A brief interlude with a soliloquy by Pablo Hidalgo ecplaining the continuity?
The answer is of course to stop the movie at a suitable moment, insert a bell sound effect and have a brain dead Cinemasins voice over complain about it.
In my last viewing of TLJ as soon as Luke died 3 people got up and left. WTF is wrong with people?
PTSD triggered by the death of their own own ghost dads
Maybe Yoda is just that strong even in death. Maybe being dead for 30 years powered him up. Maybe the temple location gives him more energy. Maybe it’s just a thing that wanted to do for fun and Obi-wan takes things too seriously. Maybe the the question isn’t why can he do this out of nowhere, but why shouldn’t he? There are so many options in a magical space fantasy and
again the movie never explains why Yoda can and Obiwan can’t. It never explains that it takes 30 years for him to be able to do what he did.
again I say don’t you think it would have been nice if Yoda after he died in ROTJ made an appearance in the Emperor’s throne room and zapped Palpatine? Oh yeah it takes 30 years to be able to do that but the movie doesn’t explain that.
people are arguing over the supposed rules, again.
excuse me for wanting the Star Wars universe to make sense, and not liking plotholes/continuity errors.
You’re excused.
What I offered were possibilities, because in the end it doesn’t matter at all.
Last time someone tried to provide exposition and explanations it was in Episode III: The Worst One Yet. Why does Old Ben only appear as a ghost in Empire and not before, maybe at Luke’s medal ceremony? If he can appear to Luke and give him directions why doesn’t he show up and tell Leia about the trap? How can he sit on a log when before he was just kinda floating? All these answers and more in the next exciting chapter of just try and relax it doesn’t make any difference.

I guess there’s not much to spoil. It will probably just fill in all the blanks as efficiently as possibly from Jabba’s shipment, Lando, Chewbacca, The Kessel Run. They have one movie to do it, and I predict it will all be used.
How is it possible that Rogue One won the Empire Award for best movie, but not the Empire Award for best science fiction movie? One seems to necessitate the other…
Because it’s a reader poll.
(it should have gone to Arrival)
The SEs should be the special feature this time, not the other way around. Then one day people can think of them as weird curios.
Not that it will ever happen, this release or any other.
I wonder if the issues with Yoda have to do with the state of puppetry today. Its becoming a lost art.
Was it voiced by Frank Oz and not performed by him?
I think it’s the lighting and / or the ghost effect. His skin was very dark looking too.

Wait what? I mean this is the right thread for once.
I wonder if any edition will use the more painted style artwork, I think it’s the Dolby Cinema one.
Anyway here’s a thing - redacted by moderator
Because one 4K indicates another… for some reason? Sounds like more straws to clutch on to.
What a rehash!
Right, he wanted it for his memorabilia collection.
Snoke killed Dumbledore
Jeez I thought for a second it was getting released don’t scare me like that
