Not to sound like a tool but why purple hair during the ceremony?
Not to sound like a tool but why purple hair during the ceremony?
Also, Can I get some requests or ideas?
Well, I’d selfishly enjoy having a 19SE-sourced set of all relevant shots with R2’s blue-red light ‘fixed’ so others (me) could steal.
Vader’s lights would be the other thing in that category.
The other things that strike me, be they from Adywan’s work or in general are:
The lack of holograms in ANH. I like Adywan’s holographic display at the rebel base during the Death Star assault.
Fixing jump cuts during lightsaber ignitions. Something like Adywan’s recent clip, too, to adjust the color and bring a sense of greater consistency to Luke’s saber without erasing the character of the original effects. Sort of made it look about the same as the new Ben v Vader effects look relative to the original version of them.
Removing the added rats to Mos Eisley, and recreating that shot of traffic from the original but using the SE version of the backdrop.
Any non-ringed explosion for Alderaan would be great to field
Replace the black 3PO “Death Star droid” with a K2-SO model instead
Replace the shot of the rebel fighters heading toward the Death Star, perhaps with something closer to the original version; the SE shot looks bad and the R2 droid’s panels stick out as obviously incorrect.
R2 with blue panels in space, like ESB and ROTJ (SE)
Luke with purple hair just during the medal ceremony
Everything this man says😁
Would it be possible to add a battle droid to the sandcrawler, thought it would have been something Lucas would have added after he made the prequels.
Other than R2’s Blue/Red light and Vader’s chest lights I would say just carry on what you are doing, the improvements with the colour and improved blast look awesome That Guy. Personally I can’t think of anything else, also looking forward to your audio mix 👍.
This looks fantastic, it’ll be great to get a better tie-in to Solo and TLJ in TFA!

Hi NeverarGreat, thank you for sharing your edit with me.
Just watched this tonight straight after work and really enjoyed.
I loved the colour grade that you gave Jakku as it gives it a whole new feel and on first viewing of TFA I thought Jakku was Tatooine.
The Island drawing at Rey’s home was done amazingly.
Having Kylo meditate after interigateing Poe was a really good idea as it shows him dealing with his inner conflict.
All the cuts and transitions are smooth and seamless
I loved all the other changes also, bit too many to mention, this I’d definitely my go to version of tfa awakens and is definitely up there with Hal’s and Digimod’s amazing edits.
Thank you once again NeverarGreat.
Sounds awesome Master Lawdog, looking forward to seeing your progress with this and Superman II.
I didn’t own the OT on VHS, only recordings that had been on TV (😬in LP all 3 on 1 cassette 😭).
(2004)
I bought the 2004 OT Silver DVD Boxset as well as the PT DVD’s.
(2012)
I then purchased the 2011 Blu Rays of both PT and OT and to be honest I wasn’t thrilled with what we got, yeah they were in HD but just didn’t seem the same and by this time I had forgotten about the changes that I hated, mainly the Jabba scene in ANH and Jedi Rocks ROTJ.
(2015)
I purchased the infamous GOUT releases, not knowing what I was actually getting as I had not read up on them properly😧. I will admit that I don’t regret owning them tho as much as they are hated they are still official (Sort of Original) Theatrical release.
(2017)
I have pre-ordered all the releases of the ST along with RO and Solo.
And those are my Star Wars purchase’s, not a massive collection by any means.
(Off Subject)
I only heard about this site roughly at the end of 2019 beginning of 2020 and I am so grateful to everyone who contributes here and all the work everyone puts in. Never in a million years would I have believed what could be achieved by fans, it truly is incredible.
New clip:
😢So beautiful, just so beautiful
Amazing work Ady.
Some really cool changes Eyepainter 👍
😁
Will you be doing the full OT Gout and Devastator editions when you finish ANH.
Hi Imhotep, I have watched up to Episode VI A New Dawn and I have really been enjoying.
I won’t put any spoilers but I love the end of episode IV and the way it is explained in episode VI.
Personal thought is episode II needs a little fine tuning as in the cuts, some are abrupt and some black screen for a few seconds. Other than that I have really been enjoying, Good work👍
Hi Nev, any updates on how your Visions edit is coming along.
The dialogue in my clip has been altered from the version Sherlock posted; I mixed together the phrase “am a Jedi” from a few different sources, but in blending the phonemes to get the word “am”, there’s a slight hum from the crossfade which is unavoidable (it’s simply a side-effect of how blending separate pieces of audio works). I hoped the lightsaber hum would be enough to render it unnoticeable.
Sounds amazing Captain 👌👍

Looking awesome kid👍
There’s no harm in it but to me it feels unnecessary.
Lasers and image look amazing That Guy👍
Looking good That Guy👌
thanks atom-88, I’m doing well relative speaking. hopefully my retirement will be temporary but if and when I do come back, I’ll slow way down. And hopefully others could share any fanedits of mine they have. Thanks!
I plan to still release Daughter of Themyscira…
Really glad to hear you are doing well and hope you continue too.
As much as I love your edits and looking forward to Daughter of Themyscira Krausfadr please look after yourself and put your health first.
Wishing you all the best, Please take care.
I fully agree with you.
In my life i have learned to take things as they are given to me. And Star Wars has so many facets, each of which has its own charm.

Something I did really dislike tho was Rey being a Palpatine and then refering to herself a Skywalker. Why does she have to be either, the movie hints at Fin is force sensitive and at the end of TLJ we see broomstick boy.
I don’t feel the need to have Rey connected to a main character in the saga.
Hi Jedi_bendu, I just feel that Rey was already doing good by herself, she managed to fight of Kylo in TFA and Defend herself in TLJ obviously she had some training with Luke but just feel like she was already holding her own and the Leia training her feels a little forced and unnecessary.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not saying it ruins the film but I just think it didn’t need it.
Wow some really cool ideas Anakin, I like the idea of having Dooku present in TPM and I love keeping the planets victory celebration for TROS.
Wow, you’d really like my Sequel edits, by the sound of that.
Could I possibly get Links😁please.
