I thought L8’s cuts were pretty much seamless

I don’t think many people will disagree on that one. Mark’s performance in ESB and Daisy’s performance in TFA are on par though.
Agreed, not enough people give Mark Hamill enough credit for acting most of the movie with a puppet that he couldn’t even hear and made it believable. Not many actors have the talent to pull that off.
So I watched all of CinemaSins’ “Everything Wrong With The Prequels” and I noticed that he seems to have accidentally made the audio from the movie much deeper, however this actually makes Anakin have a much better sounding voice, you could just deepen the centre audio track while he’s talking and I think it would sound pretty good. Have a listen for yourself: https://youtu.be/-Iw_CZtq4LI?t=39s
In the one where Obi-Wan has just cut Maul in half, it does seem to be a little green
The grain is fine by me, the original movie was shot on film so it is fitting and I agree that it does make it look more retro
Those also look pretty good! Did you correct the entire movie overall or did you do it scene-by-scene?
I’m pretty sure I’ve found the right title for my TPM edit, it’s “The Battle Begins”. This mirrors “The Empire Strikes Back” and “The Force Awakens” which both have “The <noun> <verb>”. I think this works pretty well and I don’t really care for mirroring ANH since the theatrical title was just simply “Star Wars” anyway.
Completed sequence, with hologram effects by TM2YC/Ryan.
Funny stuff, can’t wait!
^LOL
But ThomasBolt does bring up a good point, the prequels make everything seem like a big deal, we never got long overhead shots of Yavin IV or even Tatooine in ANH so why should every location or sequence in the prequels get such a grand treatment? These big shots are also not done well, if they were pulled off like something from a Ridley Scott film then I would have no problem with them but they really don’t hold up at all.
Here’s a comparison for a scene with Darth Maul:

I’ll post a few more in a bit. Any specific scene requests?
First off, that looks really good! It makes me realize that his hood and the robot were SUPPOSED to be black but got graded strangely, it reminds me a lot of TeamNegative1’s Star Wars 35mm Silverscreen preservations.
I’d like to see shots like this one: https://www.google.ca/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwi2z8X5rpTLAhUN9GMKHUm-AOEQjRwIBw&url=http%3A%2F%2Flucasfilm.wikia.com%2Fwiki%2FNaboo&psig=AFQjCNEvTF2oCDFJaSR7n4TGLDy7UOmmVw&ust=1456539582826173
and this one: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/IjzbqYZ8-5g/maxresdefault.jpg
Those ones to me have very unnatural/fake looking grading, I’d like to see what you’ve done with them.
Sounds really good! I’m happy that more radical edits are starting to surface! Looking forward to it, also interested in the recoloring
You are giving the other teenagers here a bad name.
I’m 17, so how dare you LordHaseo.
Same! I didn’t know there were others
Gotta say Hal, your AOTC upscales look better than DrDre’s! You’ve managed to avoid all of the blockiness around the edges of objects or just from afar, it looks really good!

“TFA is fucking awesome. No edit ideas beacuse it’s so fucking perfect I would even have sex with the blu ray set”.I apologize for calling you a troll earlier because I have seen the light. You’re not a troll; you’re most likely a teenager. The general lack of forethought before spewing nonsensical “points” was an indication but this is more damning evidence. I’ve even debated with a lot of people in your age group about Star Wars on youtube (I guess you can say mine too because I’m only 21) and the way in which you carry yourselves is so similar it’s depressing.

BUT THE LIGHTSABER FIGHTS ARE SOO COOL!
Yeah I thought it was a weird place to be
Splinter of the Mind’s eye and the thrawn trilogy all the way
Once I get V4 of my cut of Ep2 uploaded, DrDre’s upscales that I used will be made available too.
So… is this going to happen?
Frink, your prequel cutlist seems to have been released in 2106!
I ran across this today on eBay. ROTJ 35mm print

That looks REALLY good! Is it SE though?
Do you plan on releasing AVCHD versions and/or MKV versions of this?
This is an MKV. Hadn’t thought about AVCHD, but I could do it.
Oh ok I thought it was BD25, anyway that would definitely be awesome!

Could somebody upload the synced 5.1 audio to usenet?
I don’t have a myspleen account either.
PM sent
I muxed Williarob’s clean audio tracks up with kk650’s regraded version, I’m pretty excited to watch this with the family!
commentary tracks are nothing compared to Jambe Davdar’s documentaries, I definitely reccomend them, they are like a “best of” commmentary plus additional footage
