I never thought about replacing the Lambda with the cargo ship from R1. Thinking about it, the problems would be the full size sets. We see Han going up the ramp and the cockpit which would take impossible amounts of work to make match R1. Since we never see the interior of the Sentinel and it looks like a stretched out Lambda, with a couple of wide shot model replacements it would fit right in.

As for ship classes being seen in R1 and never seen again, I would argue that each one of those is a specific class that wouldn’t be needed in any other movie. Save for a cargo shuttle of course, but it seems like RotJ was just saving money by using the same model/set for Vader’s shuttle, the Emperor’s shuttle, and the cargo shuttle. I wonder if the Sentinel was introduced in ANH SE for an eventual replacement of Tydirium in a future SE but the idea was abandoned. Who knows?

Is it that they’re using a knife to cut individual strands of spaghetti?

I hope to have a very clear set of instructions on how to get it once the time comes.

They know the audience wants the originals. I think the fact that when Fox released one movie from each of their first 75 years in a box set had a movie with 2004 CG in their 1977 spot is appalling. The distributors should care, the owners should care, the creators should care, historians should care. We need to convince them to preserve the original for history, not just for our childhoods.

Not just the accomplishments themselves though. The actual workers and labourers who physically made it happen don’t deserve to have their hard work erased.

Indeed. Some people even have Academy Awards on their mantles that are utterly meaningless now.

Let’s see it.

I think the time for suggestions has passed.

I’m pretty sure Leia just hands Wicket a rice cake.

Looking forward to the hanger matte replacements. Maybe we can sponsor effects like that in the future. The similar matteastrophe in Return of The Jedi has bugged me since 1983.

Awesome!

Leave him alone.

JMOW, you have just as much information as anyone else about the Wampa. You follow this thread.

A five year old could follow the plot of Rogue One. I know they don’t like the film but damn…

I’ll admit my first couple times through I didn’t understand why they had to blow a hole in the shield gate when Bodhi could get a signal to the Rebel Fleet no problem, but there is an explanation. If you have it on Blu-Ray, you can take the time to rewatch a given scene to get a better idea of what’s going on for your commentary.

(The data files are too big to get through the shield, or something, but the smaller communications from Bodhi wasn’t big enough to be blocked. I don’t like that explanation, but it exists.)

Admittedly I was projecting so I apologize if my comment upset you in any way. As it pertains to the chain of events during the Battle of Scariff I found the whole thing with the shield to be unnecessary. The pacing of the battle would have been so much smoother had Jyn and Cassian taken the floppy disk we see in STAR WARS to Leia. The best way to do this of course is to have them travel to Coruscant which would kill two Mynocks with one blaster shot. I don’t even want to know the explanation for why Leia was at that battle.

They had to BEAM the transmissions to her ship to line up with ANH.

I still can’t make heads or tails of your name.

a thread discussing whether i should get injustice two or the original? Also this is not a batman thread. This is a DC thread.

The Video Game Thread is for that.

I wish Lucas had just had everyone disappear, but I’m sure he kept Qui-Gon in one piece because he wanted the funeral scene. Can you imagine how Order 66 would be if everyone disappeared as soon as they died? Just piles of robes everywhere. I’d love it. Instead we get a tacked on scene in RotS where Yoda explains that Qui-Gon figured out how to not become one with the Force after becoming one with the Force.

Thought there were 5 post-credit scenes.

Can we not anymore, please?

WHYYYYYY??? What reason do you have for killing Lando off??? Just because he’s not in the Sequel Trilogy doesn’t mean he’s dead!!

And what are you going to do about if it does happen?

The beautiful thing about fan edits is that they’re SUPER easy to ignore.

Rey knows all about Han Solo and the Rebellion, but doesn’t know about “Jedi Mind Tricks”? I believe the in-universe is that everyone has seen or heard the equivalent of the OT. Sure, they may be rumors or just fantasy, but its “true, all of it”. Wouldn’t you try to use the mind trick if you found out that Star Wars was real? I still wave my hand whenever I pass through an automatic door.

So as I understand it, Ady’s revisited editions are basically his idea of what the SEs should have been (& I’m very inclined to agree on pretty much all the changes especially after watching ANH:R) and therefore there wouldn’t be any drastic changes to the story such as killing of Lando. I believe he is simply having everyone on as indicated by a quote of Ady from the “Save Lando” thread posted on the previous page here.

To be fair, I coined the phrase “What The Special Editions Should Have Been”, these are basically Ady’s personal edits that he happens to share with the rest of the world. I did seriously push for killing Lando, but Ady wouldn’t go for it because he personally didn’t like it, not because of some responsibility to continuity.

That being said, I am glad to have it confirmed that Lando won’t be making a sudden departure in ROTJ:R. As much as I respect that it’s Ady’s edit, that would be one change to far for me. As long as the end celebration music is replaced with the original music (or at least the current SE music replaced with something more respectful to the OT) and Vader / Ananikan’s force ghost restored to the original actor instead of Hayden that GL shoehorned in there to try and forcibly tie the PT into the OT, I’ll be very happy. One of my most hated changes by GL was when he changed that and changed the music with the extended ending celebration.

Personally, I like “Victory Celebration”. Sure I miss “Yub Nub”, but its a good ending to Return of the Jedi, maybe to the trilogy, but certainly not to the whole saga. Personally.

But, this isn’t the thread for any of this anyway.
