My set has the interior art for the reverse of the front cover as well (same as the original set from phildesfr), but there are a couple differences between dahmage’s and my set, so it probably couldn’t hurt to do the 3rd one for anyone who has already printed out your first 2.

Dahmage, I don’t have the disk label for RotJ handy, so if you could make a transparent PNG for it to match the first 2, I’d appreciate it.

Yeah i was going to point that out, the interior art is untouched from phildesfr so you could always grab it from his set.

but yeah, i think i might as well complete the set.

FYI, i have been adding a small version number for the DE disk labels to signify which despecialized version it is. (ie, Jedi will say DE 2.5 just above the hub). i may create a clean set too just in case someone doesn’t want that.

I think Palpatine considers the lightsaber an inferior weapon. But it is also a good weapon to defend against other light sabers and to keep the extent of your powers hidden. Palpatine gets Anakin to act and then he has no need to hide because Anakin is his servant from that point on.

He still shouldn’t carry one of his own design.

To carry on with the sacrilege theme he could hold it by the blade and hit people with the metal handle 😃

OK, I got my graphics issues with phildesfr’s templates worked out, and finished my set for all 3 movies. These, like phildesfr’s, are for standard Blu-ray cases. I also made a tweak in the inserts I linked earlier, both the cases and the updated inserts are available at this link:

Thanks to phildesfr, he did most of the work, I just tweaked them for this set. If anyone sees any errors, let me know and I’ll try to correct them.

Hey cool man, now maybe i don’t need to do the last one.

I disagree in part.

Someone had to train Darth Maul. That kind of makes it implicit that Palpatine would have a lightsaber and know how to use it.

or this could be further evidence that the Sith idea was slightly flawed. It certainly does change the way the Emperor is viewed in the OT. It is a shame, as i agree that the idea that he doesn’t use or care about lightsabers is more threatening.

Very impressive, i really like the professional looking menu!

One thing that i just thought of that i would like to see in the ST:

Explore what role Jedi should play in the world.

In the OT, Jedi were just relics of the past, so this wasn’t really explored much, and even in ROTJ Luke only was in partial jedi master mode.

In the PT, Jedi were very bureaucratic / whatever you want to call it.

In the ST, ??. Will they be outside / above the law? will they be like Samurai? Will they manipulate world/universe events from the shadows?

I would like to see this explored.

[…] the Force Awakens answered your question. The Jedi are myths. In Bloodlines, Luke makes sure that the Jedi Academy is so secret that not even his closest friends know about its location or teachings. The Sith is a religion long since lost and dead, and the Knights of Ren are desperate preservers (think Despecialized Edition but evil).

I disagree that TFA answered my Question. The Jedi were myths. but what will they be in the next two movies. Surely Luke resurfacing and interacting with Rey and possibly Kylo Ren will be the answer, but we don’t know what the answer will be as those movies aren’t out.

Personally, i think i am hoping for something like a lone Samurai or medieval knight. Jedi working mostly individually, going where the force will take them, and finding adventures on their ways.

Look at the title! This is completely on-topic! In three or more pages, barely has a guy posted his idea for the ST, so unless somebody else starts doing what I’m doing, It’s going to be this way, sorry.

yeah, look at the post above this rant. I TRIED to bring this back on topic. if we were voting, i would vote you don’t post any more scripts in this thread. we are not voting.

Hi,

Nice Bonus Disc for “The Force Awakens”. How can one get hold of it? MySpleen?

I think they do not want anything TFA related for at least a year, I am still trying to get concrete answers on all this, it seems the Admins to not frequent the Site very often so getting answers is pretty slow.

Try Eftydub, usually very responsive

Boo, looks like they had to cave.

Is this released already?

You must have missed this a couple posts above yours,

“Also want to thank Williarob and Deathcab for helping me test this today, we are on a time crunch and hopefully all is good and this baby can go out!”

I saw that, but then you posted your release graphic so I am still confused. I guess it is still being tested. Sorry for jumping the gun.

Is this released already?

We don’t even know if it was Lucas who tampered with the films during those days.

i first saw the 97SE in theaters, and even i think i remember a missed grappling hook. funny huh.

I tried to read that review, but quickly became exhausted. there were some good points, but lots of bad points as well. not sure it said anything that wasn’t said many times before.

Sorry to hear about your dad as well, take all the time you need for family. But i am also glad to hear that you haven’t forgotten about this project, it is really cool what you are doing with this.

I hope things go well for you.

it sounds like a remaster of this ISO is in order once we have a better mono track and 81 crawl…

Bonus disks?!

Nice disk art. Question, should the case inserts mention these other disks? (not a whole lot of room unless i shrink or cut existing text). should the leaflet mention them?

njvc said:

Make that two questions… Can you tell me what font you used for the leaflet?

Hah, yeah, i will check on that. I laugh because it took me forever to find the source fonts that phildesfr was using on this.

The font is Futura Std, Medium Condensed.

JEDIT: auto-correct changed the font name, fixed

njvc said:

They look brilliant Dahmage. I’ll be grabbing those for sure. The details of the ROTJ disks will be available really soon, I’m doing test builds and quality checks at the moment. yet to edit down the commentaries though, so still a way off being ready to upload, but can post the details of the disk itself soon.

thanks! (like i said, i am standing on the shoulders of giants here :p )

One question: The subtitles column looks like it might be in the ‘fold’ area of the leaflet. Would it be worth moving it slightly to the left to avoid that?

It shouldn’t be in the fold, but yes it is probably way too close given the spacing, i may move it left more. It used to be a two column subtitle layout so i got rid of the left column to leave more room for the audio tracks, but that leaves it looking cramped.

You posted the ESB cover twice, but it’s so damn beautiful it warrants a second viewing. Excellent job!

oops, fixed. all i did was painstakingly track down all the linked elements that Adobe Illustrator refused to find, and edited all the audio/subtitle track info / special features. the overall design was done by phildesfr.

I hope i am not spamming your thread njvc. let me know if i should move this elsewhere.

Here is what i have done with phildesfr’s covers so far:

(Note, i did these for the 50 GB versions, and haven’t included anything about the Documentary disks)

Star Wars:

Empire Strikes Back:

RETURN OF THE JEDI:

Download includes disc covers and other sides of the insert/leaflet at 300 dpi: https://mega.nz/#F!Y0g13C6A!sHwfcwb09H7VSV0prLUgJg

JEDIT: added ROTJ, and minor updates to all inserts
