I am constantly amazed by the work you put out, Ady. How did you get the video information that the glow concealed? Vader's helmet was nearly invisible in that shot, but in your version it is clear as day. I also love the new ion cannon shot- the clarity is breathtaking.
In literal terms, wasn't the 2D Clone Wars series canon? The fact that it sets up the beginning of III seems like it should be.
It was indeed. Take a look at the 3rd paragraph.

They all look like they are only 10ft away and make the xwing look like a toy. I say just keep the fog as is. It makes the body of water seems big, mysterious, and dangerous. With the trees it looks like pond.
I agree with the trees, but as for the water- I thought it was a big pond. Lol.
Haha. Wow... somebody in the continuity department fails miserably.
Did you change that? Or is that an actual mistake in the movie?
Nice.

Same. That thing never ceased to amaze me. Even more insane is the fact that he had to do that with moving clips. o_o I can't even imagine.
Wow- guess the buildings were easier to fix than I thought. Nice work.
Entropy Ink said:It looks much better, Ady, but any chance you could raise the height of the buildings behind the rail along with the railing? The skyline and exposed windows of the central building in the 2004 version look better.
Hmm- interesting point, I hadn't noticed that before. It looks like Ady already moved/stretched the matte to the left- I wonder if he can also change it so we can still see the buildings. Either way, no big issue for me.
Woot! Looks nice! I'm definitely a fan of the blue ion cannon.
ben_danger said:was just watching the film and spotted this in the credits.
made me laugh.;)
Haha- same.
Haha. I almost cried there. Well, it woke me up. :P Congrats on the purchase, Ady.
Oh man, race to the finish...
W00t- video clip! Made my evening. That and the HDcam news. :)
sketchrob said:Okay - so, £190 ? OK... but thats it! lol Please let this be the camera bro, I'm gonna have to take on some extra freelance for this one lol. Funds have been sent.
I think we can all give a great thanks to you, man. Amazing contributions. Let's hope Ady can get the camera he wants with the added funds.
I sort of like the odd goop/noodles that come out. Seems alien enough for me. :P
Too bad the camera is so expensive, but if it's that good, I think it's worth it. I wish I had more money, or I'd donate for sure. Canons have always done me well, and I wish you good luck in reaching the new price goal.
Dear god, 720p. You just made my day, Ady!
Cool. Looking forward to the result.
Interesting. I'm a little surprised nobody mentioned it during the making of Revisited, or that if they did, Ady didn't do anything about it. Ah well- if someone can do something about it, kudos to them. I'm ok with the current version. :P
Possessed said:Possessed said:Someone could completely remaster ANH's audio, to remove that tinny sound it has and make the dialougue flow better. (not from an acting perspective I mean, from a quality. It's obvious that TONS of lines are pulled from different sources because of varying background fuzz and eq settings between lines). You could pull most dialougue from a consistent source. I'm actually embarking on a project like this, and am tinkering with EQ to remove the tinny sound.
Also I would just like to clarify that the issue with dialogue and quality is not a fault of adywan's, but the 2004 DVD mix.
Or rather the fact that due to it being a DVD, for the first time we can actually hear the quality differences. Correct me if I'm wrong. :P
Octorox said:It seems someone has uploaded revisited to youtube in it's entirety. They could have at least got the aspect ratio right...
Indeed. And it's been out for... 2 months? I'm surprised somebody hasn't noticed this before. Lol @ the youtube comments. They have no idea how large the project is...
Vader's red eyes were always an accidental problem, and the same with the "monochrome" effect. I can sympathize with the spinning hyperspace shot and the missing shot of Tarkin, but neither really has a huge impact on the film.
Octorox said:ChainsawAsh said:Changes I'd make to Ady's "Revisited" (not counting the "Purist" edition, which I know contains some of the changes I'd like to make, but removes some of the changes I liked about ANH:R):
1. Remove the torture droid's mini-lightsaber-needle-thingie. If there's one change to be made to ANH:R, that's it.
2. Return Obi-Wan's death to normal speed, with the original music (I'm indifferent on the duel music - it's a little out of place, but not too bad).
3. Remove the music in the Death Star "briefing" room. The only bit of truly unnecessary added music.
That's it. Otherwise, it's THE perfect version of ANH.
Oh, almost forgot, one more change:
Re-do the whole thing at 4K (or even 6K) resolution and print it back to 35mm film for theatrical distribution.
Yeah, I actually liked all of those things. The music in the briefing makes that scene so much better IMO.
I agree with 1 and 2, but I actually liked the music in the briefing room much better than I liked the duel music. I find the fight music to be a little too exciting for the subject matter, but it works alright. Change 1 and 2 and I would never hear anyone complaining at the showings I do. :P
