live like a little bitch, die like one too!
with the way he was depicted in episode 2, I doubt many people still wanna see him escape the sarlaac.

I'm imagining a lot of crunching and screaming, like someone got eaten by a T-rex in Jurassic Park.

Well, there has been a bit of discussion now abouot Grevious and Maul. Thoughts?

Personally, I'd like to see it if it is possible. But it would take not only what ever effects were possible, but it would have to have a good purpose in the film, fit with the dialogue (especially between Grevious/Maul and Obi-wan and between Grevious/Maul and Sidious) etc.

I've always wanted to see this change, it's one of the big reasons I want to edit the PT. Without it Grevious is just a throw away villain, and not a very good one at that. With it, it not only adds continuity to the never ending villain parade of the prequel trilogy, but makes his final confrontation with Obi-Wan actually matter. I've gone into detail many times in the past about how to accomplish this, but I'll have to do some backtracking to get my exact quotes. Redubbing Grevious in III is a must obviously, and looking back to I, if we really are going to change the Sidious hologram to Maul, then he will need redubbing in I as well.

What will make or break this change will be the revelation to Obi-Wan that Grevious is the Sith from I who killed Qui-Gon. This is where the dubbing becomes essential; we're going to need some good dialogue. I'll try to think something up soon, but in the meantime I think I'll put a rough edit together of how their end battle might go just to show what I have in mind. All of Grevious' dialogue will be muted, and I'll upload it to the Starkiller Ranch YouTube account. (Remember that? Haha)

This sounds good, CC. A great place to start.

Good explanation. Of course, ROTJ has had some pretty radical (and pretty cool edits in my opinion) editorial ideas to make it a stronger movie.

Ditto on the blue for the early ESB work. I helped Jambe with a demo of what it might have looked like for Building Empire. And honestly, the "A long time ago..." card is blue. Why should the crawl be the same?

I don't know if being a board member since 2003 is a gimmick. Or if having an opinion is as well. Seriously, can we drop this already?

And Neil...calm down man.It's a great edit.What else to say?
By the way Ady I sent a PM about it but if you send me a DVD I will be happy to rip it and torrent it for everyone.

Neil's request was calm, it was the reaction of about everybody else that was frantic. Can we drop this?

Man, I hate to bug you, Ady, but maybe during a bit while the encoding is being done, could you put a list together of special features the DVD will have? I know the SL and the DL versions will be different. I'm trying to make covers for both.

Just my opinion but i like the "Original Theatrical Release of Trilogy" plus the "Definitive Edition LaserDisc Supplemental Material bonus disc cover"

plus

""Five Star" version inserts, style 1"

What do you think?

Also how about the artwork on the disks themselves: (its about halfway down the page)

Enjoy,

I'm glad to see my old Holiday Special covers are still around.
