Or the easy way...just pretend it's set between the two shows. Changes like the different voice actors and having Hal instead of John don't matter when it's all pretend. :)
Well, I'd imagine VII will be about (apart from an semi-unrelated set of trap victims) Jill vs Hoffman.
Only his cheek is ripped, and he's in a room that wasn't designed to be a prison, thus easily gotten out of.
...Not that any of that effects what you would do for your edit ending of course. :)
Would you have him still get the trap off? Or you could just end with him in it, struggling hopelessly until the timer runs down, cut to black at zero, and have the sound effect of the trap springing be the last sound you hear as you go to credits.
I've actually thought many times about a combination sequel, but they just keep adding to the story. I figure I'll wait for VII, which they are saying will be the finale. (At least for the current storyline, I'm guessing.)
Not that I'm expecting much from the next one, but it's always good to have more footage to work with. :)
Out of curiosity...[SPOILERS FOR VI]...
If you want to only use III-VI, what would you be doing with Hoffman's open-ended fate from VI's climax?

I wish the subtitles weren't burnt into the image...
They are player generated on the more recent edition. Problem solved. :)
A lot of people were confused by that.
The problem is that Josh doesn't say "Arcee! Twins! ..." he runs 'em together a little too much, "Arcee twins! ..."

Update: I just read a review by Mollo. He didn't like it. But again, like others who are saying negative things about it, I feel like they aren't "getting" it. Not the way intended, anyway.
Just a difference of opinion. Happens all the time, no need to worry. :)
For inversion removal, the tracks need to be identical to the score in the film. And even then, while it can work quite well sometimes, it's rarely the magic solution to the problem that we wish it was. :)
Victor Garber's Klingon character states that they captured Nero's ship.
...And apparently keep it in orbit around Rura Penthe for some unknown reason. :D

My ideal edit would not show ANYTHING of Spock until Kirk calls him out during the session meeting... "who was that pointy eared bastard?" - I'm sure there are plenty that would disagree though.
It's funny, when I watched the film yesterday I had that exact thought. Spock's 'entrance' even feels like a first appearance scene, which would make the edit seamless, stylistically speaking. Nice to know I'm not the only crazy one. ;)

The very first shot of the meteor's from space only has 4 protoforms, it's the same as the first movie.
My mistake. I thought you meant the shot of them hitting atmosphere. Forgot about that first wide shot.
Definitely an easy trim. :)

The first shot of the meteor's falling from space,
For what it's worth, the shot is updated. There are many more protoforms in the shot than there were in the TF1 version. Doesn't stop it from being obvious as a repeated shot though.
Not great quality, but pearlanddean.com has several of their openings on the site.
Now that the discussion is leaning towards a school paper, I do have to wonder out loud how needed the newspaper is. I mean, if the headline is simply "Cleared, Promoted" how is that information that isn't already in the film?
The business with the door to Indy's new office already tells us in no uncertain fashion that the matter has been cleared up.
I'm certainly not trying to talk anyone out of adding the paper, I'm just playin' devil's advocate as to it's necessity.
HeKS said:I think his point is that Indy should only be 57 or 58 in the movie, but Ford was 64 or 65 during filming. So yes, it's Ford's real hair color, but it's his real hair color at 65, not 57.
Check out "What Lies Beneath", which Ford made when he was 57...almost as grey as it is now. I don't think the difference is particularly noticeable. ...certainly not noticeable enough for the gigantic effort it would take to re-color it properly.
...IMO.
EyeShotFirst said:Yes I did. He is supposed to be in his fifties. My dad is about 54 and he doesn't look like that.
I don't understand the example. It's Harrison's real hair color. So what if your dad isn't grey yet?
FanFiltration said:He is looking at himself in a mirror, and uses his heat vission to melt the mirror.
How do you know he used heat-vision? There are no beams present, so maybe he used something else?
ImperialFighter said:Bear in mind, I'm not adding anything to the existing footage in any way, just altering what's already there, somewhat.
Yes, I believe you may have mentioned that once or twice. ;)
The majority of fan edits are like that, so I think the paranoia might be a little misplaced.
So...Hulk falls off a jet during daylight and then lands in the middle of the street at night? Long fall!
I don't think the AT-ST animations are quite there yet...they really need to step with their feet closer to the balance point. At the moment, they tend to step with their feet directly below their "hips".
Yeah, I have to agree. I really don't see how a single shot of Spalko picking up a tracker can be turned into the Russians forcing Indy and co. to get them to where they're headed.
...not unless someone thinks that they're really, really good at effects work. ;-)
Tobar said:Is....is that the framework of a graboid in your avatar there Matt?
Not to veer off-topic, but it'd have to be a worm from Dune. Graboids have one large upper "beak" and two smaller mandibles, rather than the three equally sized ones that the avatar has.
Dangerous Incorporated said:Yes its just before Han enters the command center. It was shown on the 1997 theatrical release but removed on the VHS release.
Mmmm. Not to sound doubtful, but the "I saw it once but it was cut out on the VHS/DVD" memory phenomenon seems to happen a lot in the SW community.
I felt the urge to give some opening credits a try. It still needs some tweaks, and it may not be what everyone was thinking of, but I kinda like it. :)
I stuck to just Ep3, thinking along the lines of each film being a season and each season having it's own variation of the opening.
Also, not all credits are in place for obvious reasons. I built in space for specific episode credits...okay, so most of the 'written by' and 'directed by' credits will be the same, but the name of the faneditor will change. :)
And yeah, as has been noted by Boon...it's a little long. I guess I like old school '80s credits. Boy did those things just go on and on. ;)
DarkFather said:You seriously want to tell me that Vader would be perfectly okay with a bunch of random-ass Joes having such a chance to glimpse him without his helmet on, or to have regular sneak peeks on the private meetings going on within?
If Vader was your boss, would you take even the tiniest chance of getting sprung peeking in on his business when the door was open?
Yeah, me neither.
As suspected...
Posted by Boon at Pirate Bay:
"the aspect ratio is wrong (image stretched).
the image is blurry.
audio: there is a constant annoying white noise throughtout the entire movie.
I think you should get back to this and release a proper version, steFANedit"
