Once upon a time, I used to look forward to reading this thread...

Agh! The wait! I hope my being in Canada doesn't extend this suffering...

I'ts incredibly unpredictable. I'm in Ontario and I've had stuff get to the States before it got to another province! One guy in Nevada got a package I sent Tuesday on Saturday! I couldn't believe it! And then there are times I mail something to New Brunswick and it takes over a week. :p

I posted the original version somewhere around here, and the sequel, too.

I think I read somewhere that Josh isn't getting a copy. Better start searching, Josh! ;)

*yes, I'm kidding

They're used to people coming in with a ton of different packages, what with eBay and all, but a whole bunch of identically sized ones going all over the place would be different.

And now it's a race to see who gets theirs first! Haha.

Rimmer would like their color scheme.

My favorite part of those shots are the backgrounds Angel did. Forget the slash. The main improvement is the background.

I am in total agreement there. :)

Wow, what a difference! So much more detail is revealed.

(*cough SIG cough*)

S.I.G., Captain Frink!

Did the postal worker have a funny look on his/her face, seeing so many little packages? :p

Started playing Arkham Asylum today. Good stuff so far! I need to figure out how to aim the batarangs short of walking around. Must...open........instruction manual! :p

Hmm so can one of you please upload the audio corrected version with torrent or something like that??

Seconded. A lot more people will get to see it then...

Thirded. :)

That was good. You almost expect a "so..." or a "yep", like in King of the Hill.

Yeah, but no, but yeah, but no, but yeah, but anyway, this thread is well out of order!

Dooku as a rogue Jedi.

Y'know, I hadn't thought of it before, but though most people don't like Mace's purple lightsaber, it would kinda make sense for a "rogue Jedi." Part Jedi (blue saber) + Sith-like tendencies (red saber) = "rogue Jedi" (red + blue = purple)

Yep, I have it. Good stuff, of course. But is there any validity in my reasoning as far as your edit goes? I see the "highest level" comment you made, but mine was simply based on combining two colors. Haha.

okay, im going to start posting this stuff here as i think adywan may want to keep the ESBR thread clean, and this one is experimental enough.

 

thanks to davnes for uploading the holday special cartoon. i had a fiddle around in final cut to begin with, and was pleasantly surprised how much the quality was improved by just adjusting the sharpness and brightness/contrast. this wasnt possible with the youtube versions.

 

comparisons: (editted on left, original on right)

....forgive the stupidly big image..... i have shrunk it down for the forum, but click to see better detail.

Great job! Thought the KCCI image quality is great, that does show it was a bit on the dark side.

Well, I know it's an EU thing, but someone (Zahn, maybe?) explained why they use clunky old robots to store data as well, rather than easier methods, so that kinda fits in with the data tapes thing. I mean, even at the time the movie was made, other movies used higher imaginary technology for such things as data storage. They could've easily said 'holo-tapes' or something like that. Even Star Trek just used those colorful little zip disc-looking things.

I have the KCCI version too, and yeah, it does look pretty impressive, all things considered!

*no audible dialogue*

Classy to a fault. ;)

Mine was an homage to The Simpsons, by the way.

Officer: Master Yoda! The clones have turned on us! ... I gotta admit, master, you're taking this pretty well.

Yoda: Let's just say I'm sitting in the right chair...

ben_danger said:

where did you get this screenshot from?

I don't think it's a screenshot; it's an actual film cel. (cell? I see both.) Look at the writing up top.

Boba Fett was also on the "Droids" cartoon. Could be another source for extras.

Nice work. Never seen that poster before, like the styling.

Funny how that happens. It's one of my all-time favorite ESB posters! First saw it in an old Insider catalogue around...15 years ago? But there has been SO much merchandise over the years that it's easy to miss something that may be old hat to someone else.

Nicely done, Vincent! Looking forward to any more you may make, too.

Someday, I'd like to homebrew my PSP so I could play SNES and stuff on it. I've always been nervous of bricking it, though.

I never went beyond GBC. Heh. I used to lose sleep because all I could see when I tried to fall asleep were Tetris blocks falling.
