I wish Darth maul was the main villain for the Prequels.
Time

Guys image if Darth Maul was the main villain in the Prequels. In the second film he would recover from his injury and have a robotic lower half, only alive due to pure hate, like Anakin later on. Then he would try to track Obiwan down. He could learn more force powers and develop into a wiser Sith. He then learn about Obiwan’s young apprentice, Anakin, and with Darth Sidious orders he would murder Anakin’s mother, causing hate and fear to grow in Anakin. In Darth Mauls mind he would be getting redemption but in actually he would be playing a pawn to Palpatine. We could learn more about his backstory. He could have a similar birth story as Anakin but born to a Sith controlled world and found by Palpatine. Like a death match fighting tournament instead of a pod race. Darth Maul looks like the devil but would grow to be less evil through the two movies as Anakin slowly turns into the monster he feared. It would have more symbolism as it would ask the question “what makes someone evil the marking on the outside or the person within”.

Which version of The Phantom Menace should I buy. I only have a 1080p TV and no 4k blu ray player
Time

Just watched the commentary track and found out that the midichlorian test scene and Anakin asking where Padma is were both added in later. They really stick out as Jake Lloyd is a lot older and the lighting does not seem as good.

They also said that Darth Maul hitting the laser generator beam with his lightsaber was added in later. However, that is one of my favorite scenes in the movie, and is very on brand for Darth Maul.

Assembling a Team to Remaster Textures in Lego Star Wars II: the Complete Saga PSP version! Using PPSSPP emulator.
Time

Hello everyone.
I need help batch processing all the textures to 2 or 4 times original resolution. Help on which ai upscaler is the best for this process, and someone that has copy or can process images on that software. Help on a better way to extract textures as the replace textures feature of the emulator doesn’t extract all textures just the ones used while playing each scene. Finally is there a way to extract only film grain from 4k77, 4k80, 4k83 and how to build a graphics filter that makes the game have minimal film grain. And finally beta testers to see is all the textures scaling and working in the game correctly.

Please respond if interested in helping out. Will have to start a new discord so that the project team can work on these issues.

Prequel Trilogy Box Options for 2011 Star Wars Trilogy Episodes I-III (Blu-ray + DVD) Set
Time

Hello Everyone. I am looking for a better cover for the Star Wars Trilogy Episodes I-III (Blu-ray + DVD) Set I just purchased. Preferably something that is mostly dark (black, grey, or red) which I can replace cover art. It would be good to see some other characters and not just Yoda on the cover. Also if images are provided how do I print correct sized box art. Should I go to Fedex Office, or get it printed at Walgreens?

Link to original cover: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FStar-Trilogy-Episodes-I-III-Blu-ray%2Fdp%2FB00E9PMML2&psig=AOvVaw2MaoKJVgqe_bYfQfs1sMa-&ust=1674763789844000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCJjCqLnD4_wCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAJ

Time

Hello star wars fans. I only have a 1080p TV and no 4k blu ray player. Was wondering which version of phantom menace to pick up? Right now I only have VHS. Is there any particular version that is best for watching the film. Likely the one with the highest picture quality without having too much DNR.
