Every Star Wars fan needs to read the X-Wing series. The Allston ones were probably more entertaining, but the Stackpole ones deal with the recapture of Coruscant, which is just awesome.

Why on EARTH didn't they used that?
Techinically they did, they repurposed that design for the Orc Azog kills on weathertop (his servant, that leads the Warg chase near the beginning of the film
Oh cool, but still they should have used it for Azog. The CGI looked years dated the day it hit the cinemas.

I Really did not like the CGI for Azog
They had to, Azog's design was a last minute addition, he originally looked like this:

Why on EARTH didn't they used that? Also, the CGI for the goblin king was terrible, so that would have to go in my ideal edit and the cave trolls would need to be toned down a bit.
Wow, these are AMAZING! :D
I don't think dialogue makes the stormtroopers more menacing. On the contrary - if they have the need to spell out even the most basic orders (blast them, stop that ship), then they really don't seem to be a really competent force.
It would be nice, however, to see some elite stormtrooper action in the movies, though. The way they are now they look like a bunch of fat cops chasing after a shoplifter.

Talking storm troopers are more dangerous
As promised I did a mock-up of some storm trooper dialogue put in to stop the storm troopers in Empire Strikes Back from being mute.
Ideally some new lines of dialogue would be better but to show you what I mean and to keep some continuity I thought it was a good idea so I did it. I am not suggesting anything should be done of this nature for revisited but I would really like to see them talk again, and if they did in revisited well it would be great this video is a window to what could be perhaps.
weather or not you like it or hate it as a mock up, is not the point it's that at least for me they don't say a word and and I like some of it myself and am unsure also on some of what I did but it's more a demonstration than 100% solid suggestion.
Enjoy and discuss if you like, the link is below

I think it doesn't work at all, but at times it is really hilarious.
STORM TROOPER while being held at gun point: Do you know what's going on?
:D
But you do realize there really is no difference in distances, right?

Why did they alter the model then SD camp?
Thats why I said it was wider they did this to make it appear wider than a normal SD bridge
Sorry, but did you just make the comparison misleading on purpose? The vertical line in the bottom picture should be far more to the right, just look at the details of the tower.
I don't call it Krayt Dragon at all. I call it Crayon. It is shorter, y'know. And a bit less menacing.
Well... a bit.

The channels work like this: Audio channels 1 and 2 are dialogue, channels 3 and 4 are sound effects, and channels 5 and 6 are the music score.
Pretty sure it does not "work" like this...

Maul's speeder could hurtle passed the landspeeder in Mos Eisley during A New Ridiculous and be in the Sarlacc party during Ridiculousness Of The Jedi.
And pass the space slug in Ridiculousness Strikes Back.
@darth_ender:
damn, I really wanted to write something funny in the Skywanker-speak but you are way too good :)
your latest post really made my day :D
Wow, that dude has a pair of really hot legs!
Great job!!!!!
Oh that sexy mustache! I wouldn't mind Lucasfilm superimposing it over every single face in both trilogies.
Come on, you've got to admit that is one hot mustache!!!!
Oh Bill Will!!!!
Gosh, I really really hope no actors from the PT reprise their roles in the new ones. I have nothing against Jackson or McGregor, but their characters just don't belong beside Luke, Han and Leia.
Okay, maybe the long-haired shirtless sexy Hay Chris can make a cameo.... BUT THAT'S IT!
Well, in the SW: Battlefront 2 PC game, it is the center of life support for the Star Destroyer, but it's placement doesn't make much sense, personally, I would keep something like that well inside the structure.
I think it is the ship's scrotum.
Episode VII: Another Green World
Episode VIII: Sky-Saw
Episode IX: St. Elmo's Fire

Man, now that's a a black armored Samuarai. It's hard to believe sexy bald Hayden is under that armor. Oh, smooch, smooch, smooch!!!
Don't you get near my hot and godlike Hay Chris!!!!!!!!!!!
Only if he was so self-conscious that he would order shoulder implants.

I know this is just a mock-up, but this really doesn't work. The body is so tiny! Once again proves the point that Christensen was a terrible choice for Vader.
Now that the weirdo is gone, I can give my opinion on this.
Basically, in my ideal version of prequels, Anakin and Obi-Wan meet in episode I, but when Anakin becomes his apprentice, the focus gradually shifts to other characters established in the first episode. In the following two films, Anakin and Obi-Wan would only make brief appearances. Perhaps the third episode could have included a sub-plot in which Obi-Wan tracks down Anakin's familly on Tatooine to place Anakin's son into their care.
Well, my guess is that Disney didn't have use for him anymore, since they seem to be taking the new trilogy pretty seriously.
Also, wasn't the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles kind of a hit-and-miss project?
I first started to have problems with LucasFilm's "creative decisions" once it was announced that Hayden will be put into ROTJ. Not only did I hate his performance in AOTC (ROTS didn't come out yet), but it just seemed flat out disrespectful to Sebastian Shaw, who was always a part of this movie.
Some time later I stumbled across the X0 project website which interested me greatly and so I kept watching their progress there. Sadly, none arrived. By that time I did have rips of GOUT on my computer and acknowledged them as the versions that felt "more right" in respect to the original movies.
In 2008 I found out about the Phantom Edit and it raised my interest to the point that I wanted to check it out. That led me to this website of which I have been a member ever since, although I have been only lurking for quite some time. I like it here, the community is great and there is so much interesting stuff going on :)
