Adywan, Projects 4K77 and 4K83 are definitely 4K. They have less detail than the 1080p BluRays, but they’re absolutely 4K.
I think some people are going to make a hybrid version of V5 and V6, because a lot of people agree with you on those 2 points, and in that the droid factory sequence should be kept out of the movie. So maybe look out for that! 😉
Well, here’s my full raw list I’m working from:
[Possibly remove audio for line “I’m not sure how much longer I can hold off the vote, my friends”
Readd the last part of Jar Jar introducing the jedi at Padmé’s HQ
Fix lack of audio channel 6 from 9:41ish to 12:06ish, perhaps just lazily copying channel 5]
[Put in “easy Jedi business go back to your drinks
[Try to remedy the abrupt scene end after “But I am grown up - You said it yourself”]
Include abbreviated Dex’s Diner, and original zam death line
[Place lines from Jamila scene about staying in the lake country to refugee transport scene]
[Fix the audio during landing platform deleted scene which abruptly goes to 2.0 stereo; the beginnig and end of the scene are okay]
Consider suggestion about ep2 continuity error from using lake house to establish Padme’s family house
[Consider using Mala’s version of Anakin leaving to look for Schmi, which has no dialogue]
Undo Dooku’s modified line of “a thousand more systems”
Replace 3PO’s line about never having flown before.
[Maybe reorder scenes like Q2 has it for where the droid factory used to be]
[Put in Yoda saying he is going to go visit Kamino]
[Put back in Mace sneaking up on Dooku in ep2]
[Look into TMTYC’s recreation of the Jedi reveal in the arena from AOTP]
There is a shot of Anakin in pain from lightning that should be moved away from right before Padmé in the sand to just before leaping to save Obi-Wan
Fix video glitch in middle of end credits
C-3PO’s line about never having flown before is ties into The Phantom Menace, where he says, “I can assure you that they’ll never get me onto one of those dreadful starships.”
He cut that line from that movie for his fanedit “Cloak of Deception” v6, while also adding a line of 3PO comparing some of his life experiences with R2’s, which gently implies some backstory to 3PO.
‘The Approaching Storm v6’ is a sequel to ‘Cloak of Deception v6’, not the theatrical TPM, I’m assuming.
Well, I’m happy you added it back in. =)
Best news of the month! I’m super excited for watching it. Going by the changelog, I think you’ve pretty much nailed it good sir. 😄
You did though, by saying it’s been making the headlines for the last 10 years to no release. The SEs were released in Bluray, so you could only be talking about OUT. And yeah, CHEWBAKAspelledwrong has it pretty much right.
It’s not the GOUT though. GOUT refers just to the 2006 Bonus DVDs that were sourced from the '93 Laserdiscs.
The thing is, when we have so many high quality TLJ edits available already, which improve the film narratively (like you say) just as much or even more so than Ivan’s, his edit had to be at least just as good from a technical perspective, especially with all his claims of being a professional editor and all the hype he built around his edit. But no. It brought almost nothing new to the table while also being quite a failure from a technical standpoint. So while it may have been enough for his followers, it certainly wasn’t enough for us, who have stuff as well made as poppasketti’s or ForceGhostRecon’s TLJs, for instance.
There’s also the fact that Ivan monetized his videos where he worked on the edit - publicly utilizing an IP not owned by him to profit, thus endangering the entire fanedit community, among other offenses, such as using pirated material, which gave him a really bad reputation around these parts.
I mean, it’s barely been a month. Let’s be patient. I’m sure they’ll keep us posted whenever something of interest happens.
Galen betrays the Empire, but it also doesn’t arguably take away from Luke’s miracle.
This is exactly what happens in the movie already though. The flaw Galen left on the Death Star was a leaking reactor. How to get to the reactor is a whole different matter - Luke’s miracle.
Well I just was thinking you could do that for an alternate version of Return of the Jedi that doesn’t take the other movies into account. Sort of like an alternate history where Jedi might’ve been the last Star Wars movie.
I still see it as the last movie, much like Godfather Part II is the last Godfather movie. The ST and Godfather III are really nice epilogues though 😃
Yes, Blu-ray DNR helped kill how AotC looks for good, much like TPM. Is RotS the only film that survived the bloody transfer?
How about trying to change in ROTJ “Obi-Wan once thought as you do” to “Your mother once thought as you do”?
If you can wait just a few more days/weeks, a brand new and improved version of this edit will be coming out! I’d say it’s worth the wait.
Wonderful news, Hal! Can’t wait to watch V6!
I totally disagree. The movie set everything up in a way to show that he’d clearly make it. That’s what made Rose saving him very frustrating, and still does.
I doubt it’d be all three versions in UHD. I think the fourth disc would be the only UHD one.
That could work. Christopher Lee voiced Dooku in the 2008 Clone Wars movie, so maybe something there? But I think that in order for that to work there would also had to have a plausible shot of Anakin and Padme reacting. Maybe turning around? Looking surprised?
Well, I for one love the idea! Anything to get the “I’ve seen this before” taste of TFA out of my mouth - only amplified by the inumerous nostalgia moments. If it’s impractical and a bit too much work there’s no need I guess, but I think I should stress that I’m amazed at your immense creativity displayed in this project.
DNR has 2 versions, that are identical in everything but the crawl:
But they’re essentially the same, same DNR settings, same color grade, same dirt and scratches, etc. They both utilize Williarob’s color grade. I’ll repeat what ChainsawAsh said: there are NO versions of 4K77 DNR with Sanjuro’s grade.
NoDNR has 2 versions as well, though they have more differences:
I might’ve missed one thing or another but this is basically it.
The Clone Wars is also EU because it isn’t in the movies. Everything that’s not in the movies is EU.
That used to be what they referred to as EU, but that term is not used anymore. It’s either canon or it isn’t. If it isn’t, it’s legend.
The term can still be used. Independently of being canon or legends, everything that’s not in the movies is EU. And a lot of people here couldn’t care less about EU.
The Clone Wars is also EU because it isn’t in the movies. Everything that’s not in the movies is EU.
Mon Cala is in several episodes of The Clone Wars animated series.
That’s EU.
Yeah me neither. And honestly I didn’t even think it was him until someone pointed it out to me. I’d forgotten about him in TFA enough not to even notice that he was in TLJ - or maybe I thought he was just a random Mon Calamarian (or whatever it’s called) since because of the RO admiral I guess I thought that species had tons of high ranking officers in the Alliance? I don’t know. All I know is that next day after coming back from the theaters for TLJ the fanbase was tearing itself apart and one of the reasons was Ackbar’s death, and I couldn’t believe that I’d missed it, thinking it had been something as great as it was being pointed out. Not the case at all, though.
How is it EU? Is he portrayed as a regular man in ROTJ? I mean, the whole Mon Calamari thing is EU but he’s still a squid-man.
