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.
Actually Classic Star Wars was a run of reformatted reprints of the newspaper strip that ran from 1979 to 1984. It was originally just the later Al Williamson strips but later on they would go on to reprint the early Russ Manning strips. You can see more by clicking on my sig.
The only Marvel reprints Dark Horse has done as far as I know were first the film adaptions and then later the omnibus books. I believe they plan to do another run soon including some of the british stories that were left out the first round.
Oh yeah, I love those. It was a really great series up until the end when Archie Goodwin left. Then toward the release of ROTJ it just got horrible.
It was in a recent forcecast that was linked here not long ago I believe. I'll see if I can track it down again but the gist of it is explained in this excerpt from his site:
Before Revenge of the Sith commenced, Matthew was to supervise the re-mastering of the Star Wars Special Edition Trilogy to DVD 2004. Bringing these films into the modern soundstage of DVD and Dolby EX, Matthew and his crew spent months meticulously reconstructing the soundtracks from their original elements. An absolute labor of love, Matthew got to relive his childhood fantasy and also work his sound expertise on his favorite films.

Who cares about the blu ray since it will not have either theatrical versions, the 1977, or 1997 .
It will be total crap. The new mix being created will suck too since Ben burtt does no longer work for Luca$film. Matthew wood is doing the mix, it will be garbage.
But wasn't it Ben Burtt that did the 2004 mix and look how good that turned out. Ben Burtt was just the sound FX guy and should have stuck to that. When he got his hands on the mix he dialled down the music so low it was inaudible in some sections and the sound effects just drowned everything out
He's credited for it but he mostly just supervised. I was listening to an interview recently with Matt Wood and he was talking about how he and his partner were the ones that actually created the '04 mix.
Yeah a 2012 release is likely but I'm betting we'll get the announcement in a couple weeks at Celebration V.
Love what you're doing Cutter. I'd also like to see, if vaderios is up for it, what you two could do with new mattes to erase unwanted elements like the other jedi masters.
Well It's gonna be Jon Stewart interviewing him so I imagine he probably wouldn't mind grilling Lucas a little. =P
Sad to hear the project is over. =/ As for there being more rebel troops, I've always wondered what happened to that second team? You know the one with the prune faces, they just kind of wander off and we never see them again. Would be cool if someone could shoot some new footage and reinsert that team into the battle.
I'm going but I don't know how I feel about trying to give him anything...
I actually loved that they looked that way. Made it feel real and vintage.
Haha, that was AWESOME Shadow! Something else that's awesome is the new clip that Ady posted on the Revisited Facebook page. Amazing coloring in that clip Ady! =D
Ripplin reminded me of this beauty. Anyway, so how are things coming along Ady? Are you still on the mend?
It doesn't, but it does link to the actual transcript so you can read it yourself. Looking around it seems the first place it was mentioned was this blog. The existence of the transcript can be traced back as far as 2005 in the book The Cinema of George Lucas by Marcus Hearn.
Best Star Wars artist there ever was, the only one who comes close today is Doug Wheatley.

I can't believe any of these moron SW fans who dress up can't answer why Luke and Leia kiss, yet they are siblings. Is every SW fanboy naive to the reality that Lucas was making this up as he was going along?
Let's hope he was, or if this was planned, that would be creepy as hell!
Not to disparage the man but he and Spielberg did also come up with the idea that Indiana Jones had an affair with Marion when she was between the ages of 12-15. Source
I'm curious, what ever happened to the fellow who wanted to create his own audio mix for ANH:R?
Actually someone already did!
Posted by: akalsey | June 28, 2010 2:32 PMUsing Tropo (http://tropo.com) I created a phone app that plays the recordings so you can hear them as they originally were meant to be heard. Call (714) 643-2997 to hear one recording at random. Outside the US? Use SIP at 9991443239@sip.tropo.com or Skype to dial +99000936-9991443239.
I think this revelation that it's the same set is important in that we've confirmed that center circle is solid.
Wow, that looks great. =)
Not to keep us off topic but just in the defense of the EU. It's first purpose is to explain and and expand upon the things we see in the films.
As for an explanation of how blasters work:
In particle-beam based blasters, like the E-11 used by stormtroopers, a small amount of high-energy gas moved from the heter valve to the chamber commonly called the XCiter. In the XCiter chamber, the gas was energized by the power pack, then passed into the actuating blaster module, which, when assisted by the components in the barrel, processed the now extremely high-energy gas into a compressed beam of intense energy particles, coupled with intense light, which generated the deadly high-energy particle beam fired from most blasters. In these blasters, the combination of superhot laser-light and a compressed bolt of intense energy particles formed the deadly bolt.
Blaster bolts usually dissipated in a small, but violent explosion of extreme heat and force upon contact with an unshielded surface, sometimes leaving blast points.
So anyway, how's the workstation coming along Ady?
Finally got a chance to listen to some of it. Simply amazing! I've never heard the Empire Strikes Back sound better. So many little flourishes and things I've never heard before, brings everything to life. One thing though, I tried burning it to a cd using the cue file but there was an error, apparently all of the files in the cue are listed as wave files. Is there a way I can fix that? Thanks again ABC, you hard work does not go unappreciated. =)
Just watched it, awesome stuff. I take it this is still before the final film grain pass on the new elements right? =)
