And don't forget the time he snuck up and stabbed someone from behind like all of the sith have been doing since season 1.

Imma gonna concur with Frink, there was some actual acting put into the original voice. Whereas Temuera literally just phoned it in without trying.

Someone who does have the book, tell me how the seismic charges sound effect from the only cool scene in AOTC was made. I have always wanted to know.

Bad news... pg 236

When Attack of the Clones hit theaters, the seismic charge caused a similar reaction in audiences.  Indeed, when lecturing, Burrtt is often asked about it and the twang of the explosion (which he prefers to keep a secret).  "When I go out and meet fans, they always ask, 'What was that sound? That was so cool,'" says Wood, "But it's the absence of sound that really is what makes everybody like it."

 

Ohhhhh, I guess I'll never know. I bet it is more simple than we would think.

Personally to me it always sounded like an electric guitar. I'm always expecting to hear, "the boys are back in town!" Every time that sound goes off. =P

That summary is kinda crappy, it got the jist of it but mangled a few points.

As for the premiere of season 3, I thought it was great! Wish they had squeezed in Rookies between the two new eps but it was still great. It really shows that the series shines when the stories are told in three part arcs. Even retroactively like this one.

Anyway....yeah Star Tours is closing but the ride itself is still running until sometime in November I think. After that they'll do the real decommissioning and revamp the queue area and have a new ride in place. Actually I should say rides, as now Star Tours will have multiple destinations like it was originally supposed to have. Only downside is that this is a prequel to the original Star Tours and is set between ROTS and ANH. The ship will look basically the same, except it now has these brown/orange stripes on it and is now the Starspeeder 1000.

Wait....you were able to sit through it more than once? :o

Yeah I'm wired differently than most. I've seen it quite a few times actually and find it entertaining in its own way. =P

Gotta say I'm definitely looking forward to both of these. =)

I've given it serious thought in the past. In fact a couple years ago I had a stroke of genius while watching it and had all these great ideas about ways to cut and rearrange some things but now I can't remember any of it and the last time I watched it I had lost the insight.

Great vintage interview that was just recently uncovered:

Bobbie Wygant interviews Harrison Ford for Star Wars 1977

If it's sourced from the GOUT then how can you know? The whole question was whether the GOUT itself was missing something.

Now here's what I'm talking about with the missing shot:

So let's start off with the '04 SE, here we have Han saying I'll bet you have:

Then it quickly fades to this shot of the two of them:

But back in the GOUT right after Han says his line suddenly there's a bright flash:

Then it cuts to the Dummy Greedo right before he explodes:

So did the SE add a shot or was the GOUT censored? I personally would lean toward them censoring this shot because of that site I mentioned before that noted Han's bolt going over the table instead of through it. Thoughts?

Going back to the Han/Greedo scene. I was looking at the two on youtube and the gout is missing that shot but it's there for the SE. So did the SE add a shot (where they make Han dodge Greedo's blast) or is the gout missing something?

I still don't understand how they got Jabba's eye color wrong for the '04 release.

Now here's a question I've been wanting to ask, are we missing frames from the Han/Greedo scene? I remember way back there used to be a website that compared all the changes from the OUT with the then new '97 SE. For the Han/Greedo scene he pointed out how they messed up the compositing of Han's blaster bolt going through the table and was now going over it. But now when I watch that scene I don't see that shot anywhere at all!

The only reason they made Luke and Leia sister was to tie up the story into this one trilogy. Originally the "other" Yoda spoke about was supposed to be the star of episodes 7-9 but after ESB Lucas decided to just end it after ROTJ.

Woah, that's awesome!

Yeah well originally that blacksaber was supposed to be a vibroblade but after Dave explained the technology behind it George just gave him a weird look and told him no. =P

"For generations, my ancestors fought proudly as warriors against the Jedi. Now, that woman tarnishes the very name Mandalorian. Defend her, if you will. This lightsaber was stolen from the Jedi Temple by my ancestors during the fall of the Old Republic. Since then, many Jedi have died upon its blade. Prepare yourself to join them." -- Pre Vizsla.

George himself wrote that line and after Dave Filoni read it he was suspicious about how much George knew about SWTOR. =P

Eh, I'm guessing it's regular EU with no input from ol' George. Though you know he's aware of it from that line he threw in the second season of the Clone Wars. =P

The Maul's brother bit will be small potatoes for EU fans when they find out about Zabraks actually being the male form of Dathomir witches.

But still wrong.

 

As Taken from the GOUT:

There were still some oddities. Almost all of the Tie fighter explosions were almost pure white, no color at all. Except notably for the last Tie when the Falcon escapes Tatooine. As opposed to when an X-wing would bite it and then the color of the explosion seemed oversaturated.

Definitely wasn't green.

Unfortunately I had just missed all the Tatooine scenes.

Well, I guess I'll throw my two cents in. I was there at Celebration and got to see what I'm guessing was a sneak peek at what's going to be coming out on bluray. Every night they would play two films back to back. I wasn't able to attend most of them because the shuttles stopped before the first film would finish. However, on one day because they were throwing a big party they moved the films up so I was able to catch a good chunk of ANH.

They had a big fancy digital projector hooked up that projected to a huge screen. Sorry I can't get into the technical side of things that's not my forte. Anyway, the film looked amazing. It looks like they might have gone and fixed the errors that the DVD release introduced as Luke's lightsaber was actually white again. The colors overall looked a lot better than what I remember of the DVD transfer.

Aww man, I wish I had seen this thread before I took off. Would have been cool to hang out. Oh well. =/

It's not too much of a surprise. They'd already done it with his appearance in the Tatooine DLC for the first Force Unleashed. They're using Dee Bradley Baker who does the voice of the clone troopers for the Clone Wars.
