When he's done with Jedi, I'd like to see a collaborative effort to reboot the prequels. It's a shame nobody I trust with the idea has taken up the mantle. This is where I think the next logical step should be taken. Forget the idea of polishing a turd of the existing prequels. Ady I think honestly you have enough talented people (I include myself) that we all could get together and do a new prequel. We could do it with today's technology in the retro style, without all the fancy schmancy crap that litters the new films. I know you must have thought about it. I would do it myself if I had the same following as you. People are behind you because of your dedication to making the OT what it NEEDS to be. Well, you would have the same dedication but intensified ten-fold if you were to helm a project such as that. I alone have an extensive amount of knowledge and material to loan and would give an enormous amount of my personal time to such an undertaking. 

I dunno, just chew on that for a while. There are literally way too many people to count that would jump on board. We're all a little crazy when it comes to the OT. That's why we're all here right? We're the only ones who understand each other. 

Agreed on that.

For those that have facebook you can also view it on the ESB:R site:

people who have seen the donators version will notice it has had a few changes since that video was done.

Cool clip ady. Keep rocking man.

I can't say I've ever heard that tune. Could you share a link to it?

I agree. I was totally blown away by Ady's changes to that scene.

I've never known a sky move in a direction like that. Here's my interpretation of your pic that shows that there is nothing wrong with the cloud movement between shots.

Now an easy way to prove this is this:

Go outside on a cloudy day, not a stormy day, when you can clearly see the clouds moving. Now you need to stand in a potion that you can see the clouds both in front and behind you. Now stand so that the clouds are moving in your vision from left to right (as they are in the first shot) now turn exactly 180 degrees and now you can see that the clouds are moving from right to left.

 A... yes... quite right, quite right.

Sorry about the migraines. Did you see a doctor?

Well they don't. I couldn't fit the line so I curved it. :P

But if we assume that the sky is moving let's say, east in the first shoot than it is not moving east in the second (in the video). There sky changes the direction it's moving in. I could be wrong but it looks like this (excuse the crude image):

Double post.

Been a long time since I posted here (Firefox refuses to log me in for some reason).

Anyway. Love the escape clip! But in one of the shoots the sky is moving to the right and in all the other shoots it is moving to the left.

Am I missing something?

(and i do not want this posted to youtube. thanks)

This looks fantastic!!

I'm not a man of big words Ady but please accept my condolences to you and your family.

We're all with you Ady.

bingo wings

but Luke on his own escaping the Imperial Palace on the Imperial capital planet just doesn't make sense.

 

Wait, bingo wings, why are you saying Luke on Coruscant in the Imperial Palace wouldn't make sense(after the Emperor dies)?

 

You're joking right?

I don't think it's that cold in those tunnels. Like in an Iglo.

I have no idea, but it can't be much... right?

Well the movie needs to be finished in order to get the timing right. Just wanted to know if it's an option. The more languages we get the better for Adys edit.

BTW Ady. Would did you consider adding other language subtitles? Lot's of people I know don't know English well enough to enjoy your edit. I could make Polish subtitles for you. We could find some people to make Spanish, German and French no problem I think.

Good stuff there Angel. One thing tho. I would suggest removing the "Queen thanking r2" scene. It just seems weird that a Queen is thanking a droid. And why does the fake Amidala send the real Amidala to clean him>?? ;/

I know I wrote something completely different last time but the more I think about it the more I want the AT-ST to stay in the movie.

I always thought that the AT-ST is a bit out of place. When the rebel looks at the walkers coming in the distance we can't see any AT-STs So where did they come from? And why are they seen in just two shoots? There not a bad addition all in all but I wouldn't really care if they're removed from the film.

What I would like to know Ady is will you be adding more snowtroopers to the battle?

-Angel

I like this one as well. It looks heavy. Makes it seem even more mysterious.

I love it. Just the X-Wing looks to dark.

• Lister: Why are they painting it the same color it was before?
  Rimmer: They're changing it from Ocean Grey to Military Grey. Something that should've been done a long time ago.
  Lister: Looks exactly the same to me.
  Rimmer: No. No, no, no. That's the new Military Grey bit there, and that's the dowdy, old, nasty Ocean Grey bit there. Or is it the other way around?

I love that show!!

I agree 100%

Ok. I just noticed a few things in Empire that I wanted to ask about. Sorry if these were mentioned before (and I'm pretty sure that some of them were).

When Leia tells the pilots about the evacuation, one of them is holding the X-wings laser (?). Then he let's go the prop moves. I think that a space ship/star fighter would be more solid. Hopefully this screen will clarify what I'm talking about.

 

Ady, will you be making any changes to the glass screens in echo base? They don't seem to be very helpful and yet the woman somehow knows when to launch the first transport (I think someone mentioned this but I can't find it so...)

 

Also will you change the panel on the Executor?

 

Finally, and don't get me wrong here because I don't want to start a whole thing about the snow battle but will you be replacing this shot (I'm almost sure someone asked about this ;/)?Thx.

 

Good findings Zak. I forgot about the X-wing laser prop jiggling, but it had always bothered me. Any small upgrade to the glass displays would be welcome. Weren't there similar glass panels at Base 1 during the Death Star attack in ANH:R?

I was begging to think that I'm the only one who noticed the X-wing thing. Now every time I watch that scene I just can't stop looking at that thing!!!
