Awesome covers, are there any in this style for TFA?

Alright. All finished. PM me for a link.

Keep in mind this is a prototype. Nothing is final. I have not finished cutting things out. The wording in the narrations is not final, and there is no voiceover. I also kinda forgot to remove the “he’s my brother” scene. So that’s still in the prototype. My bad.

The video’s also kinda laggy in some spots, don’t know why. I’ll look into it so it’s not in the final version.

It’s 4h29, and a massive file (10.5ish GB), so I don’t expect anyone to download or watch the whole thing, but go over it if you guys want.

TIMESTAMPS
Chapter 1: 0h00
Chapter 2: 1h18
Chapter 3: 2h55
Chapter 4: 3h21

I guess looking at those timestamps, I know where I should focus the fattrimming.

The first one.

Very interested.

There are a few shots where the ships are a little slow, though, in your preview. I recommend you speed them up.

Alright, I’ll render it overnight and upload it tomorrow. PM me for links.

Sorry about my lack of activity recently, school got in the way, but would you guys be interested in seeing a prototype, since I don’t know how long it’ll be before I finish?

Any updates on this?

Not a bad idea if executed well.

No green Lightsabers until Return of the Jedi. All PT Jedi have blue lightsabers.

I’ve always loved this idea, but keep in mind how difficult it’s gonna be to get the color exact. I tried to do this in my fanedits but the former-greens never looked close enough.

Only minor stuff. Luke sits down weird one time on Dagobah. When Leia kisses Luke on the Falcon when leaving Bespin, there’s no sound effect.

I never liked how in Vader and Luke’s conversation (through the force) there’s like a two-frame fade.

“He’s all yours, Bounty Hunter” and “Now, release your anger” feel weird, and I’d cut out “Bounty Hunter” and “Now”.

If you care about trilogy continuity, then you could edit out Yoda being Obi-Wan’s master.

For actually major stuff, I really don’t like the other, and I don’t like either Emperor scene. The Emperor always looks bad in either one, and while Adywan’s is an improvement, it’s not groundbreaking. It doesn’t add anything, anyway.

Finished. PM me for a link.

Anyone wanna call it?

Oh my god, I’m such an idiot. I knew that it was Ares, I’m so sorry I said Hades.

Is there any way to have the title changed?

Starting editing tonight. This is a pretty simple edit, so I expect myself to be done in a few days, but I don’t wanna be too certain in case it’s not done by then.

Skimming through this, I’m gonna watch the whole thing soon.

There are a few times where the audio… I guess the best way to describe is that it clips. They’re all around cuts, so my guess is that you just cut the video and left it like that. You should have the audio on each side of the cut fade into one another, it solves that problem.

Like other people have said, some added dialogue doesn’t fit right. I think it’s more that they’re running over existing dialogue, partially. Some lines don’t have this problem but still feel out of place, but idk why for them.

I love the recoloring. Especially the lightsabers. Finally we have air superiority blue and actually real red!

Not a fan of ADigitalMan’s (I think it was them) crawl maker. I prefer JackPumpkinHead’s. Although this isn’t a huge deal.

Also personally, I’d add more grain.

I’d make Dooku lose his head sooner, there’s a bit of pause between when Anakin catches the lightsaber and when he’s beheaded.

I see.

Hey, by the way, is there anywhere else this could be uploaded to, even temporarily? I’ve been downloading for the past 18 hours and I’m only 80% of the way there because of the data caps, and I’m not gonna be able to start back up again until 11 PM.

“No loose wire jokes” is in the theatrical movie, and I believe “I was about to say that” was too.

It looked like they were straight up, literally ripped from your channel, but just in case they weren’t, do you think they are?

If so, absolutely go ahead and report. If not, I’d say don’t do it.

That’s good stuff. I’ve always liked minimalist stuff. I know that isn’t minimalist, but it’s close enough for me to like it.

You guys like it? I made it myself.

Around 1h49m55s (Harmy), there’s a shot of a TIE Fighter crashing into a Star Destroyer, and every time I watch RotJ, I expect it to hit the Star Destroyer and leave a TIE-Fighter-shaped mark on it. But it blows up before it hits it. Can this be done?

Edit: Deleted fu

35mm sourced version of Revenge of the Sith for the picture

Hey, where’d you get that?

output the whole thing to a VCR and then copy the tape a few more times.

How much would that cost to get a VCR, a few tapes, and something to put the data onto a computer? It’s been a while since I’ve bought any of that.

What’s weird is that despite all of the constant bashing of the PT I always see on sites like this, the critical ratings towards them have actually been mostly mixed to positive. If they really were that bad, then they wouldn’t have a 6.5, 6.6 and 7.6 rating on IMDb.

Where’d this come from?

Imperial Conference was already cut. Great minds think alike?

By putting Ben’s Hut before the dinner scene, I assume you mean that R2 doesn’t run off, right? I like it. Edit: It didn’t turn out so well, having Luke get called off, then wipe to Ben’s hut feels really awkward.

Han & Greedo was something I was on the fence for, but I think I’ll go with it.

Alderaan Destruction scene being removed isn’t something I thought of, and I like the idea. I feel like it might be kind of a surprise, which I prefer to dramatic irony. The only problem is that Tarkin says “It’s time we demonstrate the full power of this Battle Station”, which I can’t really figure out how to edit around while still leaving the scene in, which you’d need so Alderaan doesn’t come out of nowhere. Will it still work? Edit: Jumping from the hyperspace scene to the chess scene doesn’t look so good.

Trash Compactor is also a good idea. Will be done.

The “You’re braver than I thought” to fight cut was already in there, too.

I like the Wampa cut. Good idea.

I’m also cutting out the Asteroid field like you said, which has caused a ripple effect and a lot of other scenes are going with it. Chapter 2’s starting the be structurally different to Empire, too.

I don’t wanna cut out the throwing things bit, I’ve always liked it and it’s less than a minute long, so cutting it won’t do much good.

The “there is another line” and everything on Dagobah in RotJ were both already cut. Dagobah scenes from RotJ are covered in the narration before Chapter 3.

Leia’s scene with Wicket and C3PO’s bedtime story have been cut already, too.

With all of this, it’s down to ~4h30, and I haven’t even gotten to trimming the Battles of Endor and Hoth.
