It's worth noting that WookieGroomer's upcoming new edition & Adywan's HD have color correcting, which is one of the major draws of Revisited (of course not the only one...)
There's a cheat to skip levels, I think... you could go to the last level and check it out yourself. Personally, I only remember one line delivered not so well. "I have killed your master, and now it is time for you to DIE jedi!" - Maul to Obi. There could have been some dialogue on tatooine, but really I just don't remember.
also: If only someone could go through the whole movie like Vaderios is going through single snapshots! D:
Oh I c wut u did thar.
@Wookie: interested as to how much color correction you'll be doing. Will it be of a light level like Adywan's, or will these be frame-by-frame corrections? And, PLEASE start with The Phantom Menace. I don't wanna sound like a little bitch, but dear GOD that needs it almost as much as Star Wars*!
*for some reason I call ANH Star Wars.
Not the color correction though... and I believe there have been comparisons showing that a downscale HD looks better than a regular DVD. In fact, earlier in this thread comparisons were made that showed at least a slight gain in detail.
Dooku? On the council? I'm gonna go against this and say that and say no... not sure how long ago he left the order, but it just seems an unnecessary tie to AOTC.
Sounds neat... now if I had a blu-ray player and/or burner I'd be all over that! Of course, I'd be someone is probably gonna downscale them slightly for DVD-5 or 9 anyway. So, until then, -waits patiently-. And this would be the whole saga, right?

I can't open the TPM game sound files at the site you linked to Ady.
Does it have the extra Darth Maul (performed by Peter Serafinowicz) dialogue in there?
I have the PSone version of the game and I was going to investigate and possibly sample that for TPM edits but if someone has already done that I'd like to avoid duplication of effort.
The PS1 game's sound effects and voices if I recall are of MUCH lower quality than the PC version. I have both, fun - however tedious - game.
Thanks for interestingly trying to fix the pink tint, from what I understand it's just the DVD. However, I prefer the original Coruscant skyline in the shot of Qui-Gon and Obi, mostly because I got more out of it; felt less like obvious CG (no offense to Vaderios' work, which is always awesome). Curious, what kindof color levels are you using to correct these few scenes? It would be interesting to see the movie without that pink tint.
@Hallway idea: Maybe I'm mistaken, but I believe that in The Wizard of Oz before they see the Wizard they have to walk through a hallway, creating a feeling of suspense and isolation. At least showing a hallway there would make for a great sense of isolation; totally for the change.
My ideal edit would be to wait and see how the extended edition is, and - if there's enough - produce a version with the movie audio synched to the motion comic. The motion comic is a great idea, but the fact that all of the voices are done by one guy (while reminiscient of audiobooks) is a little disappointing.
Yech, and here I thought the '97 SE was closer than the O4. Especially the "binary sunset" scene there... @_@
Erikstormtrooper said:Speaking of the opening credits, there's a scene where two guys are tied to a fire hydrant, with rorschach's calling card next to them. Are these 2 guys supposed to be someone in particular?
That was Rorschach's way of telling the world he wouldn't quit, if I'm not mistaken.
Nixon looked ridiculous, but the actor was all right. I loved the opening scsene, where it basically showed hwat had happened up until the movie started. And some good old Dylan doesn't hurt either.
Also, Jimi Hendrix. That's about all I have to say for the movie; not really into long reviews. It was satisfying, but it dragged on a bit. Understandably so; remember they're cramming for most people 6 or so hours of reading into about 2 hours 40 minutes.
Working on it... >________>
Bump for the fact taht I find this thread interesting.
@vbangle: The thing about that is a public answer would be more interesting! I'd like to know the answers to these now that they're out here.
If I may say so, I liked the SE pullback where you got to see a bit more of the city. What I DIDN'T like was that they felt the need to add the high-larrious hijinks of the droid & the ronto.
If anyone's interested in making such a project, I have the disc and know just where it is. I'd gladly donate it.
Yes, I think that would be rather interesting. Always good to see how things can be improved on.
@Possessed: Actually, the '97 SE surround mix from the Japanese laserdissc was used. Not disagreeing that it could use some work, but it still manages to be better than the '04 mix.
And the fact that the first few episodes blow chunks. Surprisingly, the rest of the series is turning out a lot better. Is it good? Depends on your opinion, but I like it; least it's better than the "movie".
Uh.. unfortunately wrong Revisited thread Deckard.
@Ziz: I hear the North Pole's 6-month vacation is better than two weeks in Pismo Beach... ;)
404 on the FLAC TPM... but the mp3s are good.

I don't know why, but your copy/paste seems to always be missing a few things.
Yeah, I recommend starting from the beginning. Honestly, VIZ-isms in the translations or not, a much better manga earlier on.
