And I'm a guy that absolutely loves the Radio Drama's take on the scene. In that, he's screaming, "MY SOOOONNNN!" and has a great dialog with the Emperor about putting him down. What makes it is the line about Palpatine being Vader's master, but not Anakin Skywalker's.

So, like all the changes, something that he should have hit on and would have been easier 28 years ago, or 14 years ago, or 7 years ago...

Since we aren't getting rid of Netflix, we were trying to pick a new show to watch. I decided we were going to choose between the two big AMC shows that just came to Netflix, Mad Men or Breaking Bad. We watched the pilot for each, and decided to run with Mad Men. Breaking Bad was good, it just wasn't what we were in the mood for. Mad Men is pretty good, I hope they quickly grow out of the dialog that sometimes just shouts "WEREN'T THE SIXTIES JUST WACKY!?"

Not helping.

Yes, its been a year now, and most of the discussion still takes place here, we're just using my thread as a "to-do" list mostly.

I've already made a Revisited Trilogy set of artwork. :P

And? In ANH:R DVD-9 there were many DVD covers made by many users.

What does the use of an alternate take imply about transfers, scanning, cleanup, etc?

That might be a different take of Han Solo, but that's the same take of Fett. If you look closely, you can see that the blu-ray Fett looks pasted into the frame; that's because it looks like they used the same take of Fett (cut and pasted against a new background), just repositioned and "squeezed" horizontally (look at how his helmet is flattened side-to-side) to give the illusion of a different angle.

Have a (temp) comp!

Is Boba still firing in this close up? Does the soundtrack still have the sound of him shooting?

none's Difference mode is helping out a ton with finding changes. Look at this one:

http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Complete-Comparison-of-Special-Edition-Visual-Changes/post/535910/#TopicPost535910

Han hitting Boba IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TAKE FROM A DIFFERENT ANGLE!

That's not a zoom in, that's a completely different shot!

Look at the folds in Han's shirt! It may be an alternate take!

I love that the individual covers just have the names of the movies, not subtitles or supertitles or numbers. Just Star Wars, Empire, and Jedi.

EDIT: the 3 disc is better now.

Idea. *cue lightbulb*

I'm a linguist, and I've constructed artificial languages for stories before. If someone seriously wants to have a crack at this, I'd be happy to help out. It takes a little while to do, but it would give me an excuse to make another one. Of course, you'd have to be prepared to record everything in the new language from scratch.

Just an idea.

When I click the link in your post, mega upload says "The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.".  Wasn't sure if you removed it for some reason.

Everything is fine on the STREAM file which I extracted from the ISO and tried to burn. Even used IMGburn, like I said, it worked in my Blu-ray player. I've burned AVCHD's from Adywan, but this was my first burn on my new laptop.

Well according to the set-up menu of the Blu-Ray it is the archival commentary.

I think that some will see anything less than "Lucas can do no wrong" as crazy talk.

Audio changes, no one has in one place, except for DVDActive, which is good enough for most.

I'll never understand why George seems to think he needs to hold the audience's hand now. "I can't have Han shoot first, people will think he's a bad guy!" "I have to show how Vader got back to his ship, people don't know what 'Bring my shuttle' means." "People need to know without a doubt what Vader is thinking, so let's have him express his emotions."

George. Mr Lucas. We've had these movies for almost 30 years, we've never had a problem understanding what was going on. We never thought for the first 20 years that Han was a bad guy. We didn't care how Vader got to his ship. And we knew that Vader was actually experiencing the conflict Luke has mentioned to him after he was captured. I'm pretty sure the next generation can figure it out as well.

FRAMES! I NEED THEM!

Listening to the archival interviews commentary track for ROTJ it is pretty funny what George Lucas says about the scene where Vader pick up the Emperor now that he has added Vader's Nooooooo's:

Acting with masks is a very ancient tradition. It's the emotion of the story that can carry you through and the nature of cinema that you can switch shots you put on either side of the mask that tell you what the mask is thinking.

So younger George knew that the audience didn't need to hear what he was thinking to understand the scene. I'm really surprised that this comment made it onto the Blu-Ray, unless adding the No's was a last minute decision when everything else was finished.

I burned two copies of RotJ and both are plagued with huge pixels everywhere. I'm not sure if its my burner or what. I'll figure it out, just saying.
