I think the opening of Alien is meant to be spartan and depressing, but your mockups are cool, as always. :-)

I've never seen the bridge on the model before!  Too cool!

DAYV still has Ghost's iPod lol.

Odd that I can't figure out how to get the Caps Lock on my iPod, but GHOST can't turn his off.  TRY PUSHING THE "UP ARROW" SHIFT KEY!

Not sure why I yelled that...

First, the 20m (65 feet) Tydirium shuttle continuity.

 This would be awesome as its own thread over in General Star Wars Discussion.

 

IMHO

Oh, sorry =/ am I going of topic? I would hate to spoil Ady's thread!

I just wish to make my case on the whole star destroyer dimension issue, it shouldn't take more than 4 other posts like this one…

Do you think I should create another tread anyway?

I think its more that this would be great to discuss/debate, so we should have a thread dedicated to it, full of pictures and stuff.

I've always thought it was odd how most geeks have the same interests in common.  Have any of you ever wondered why that is?  Most of us seem to like science fiction, comic books, anime, computers, etc.

It's weird to think about, but it does give us a culture of our own.

I just discovered that this set existed this morning, and was hoping to run into a breakdown of it somewhere.  Conveniently, Gaffer is on the same page as me.

I won't be getting it as I found out after buying the "remastered" Season 1 that, good lord, most of the series is really boring.  I hope that Kai can fix that, even though I don't fully understand what its about (is it just a re-edit, or a re-animation?).

Jumping into the series at the beginning of The Android Saga in college was fun, and it was my first anime, so it'll always have a special place in my heart.  Just not on my shelf (probably).

Here is the concept art of the TIE shuttle made for ESB.

 

 Actually that is concept art for the TIE Bomber done for ANH and not picked up until ESB.

Actually it's the concept art for the TIE shuttle for ANH, but the shuttle idea was abandoned in ANH and then used for the TIE bomber in ESB

I still don't see that from this:

Maybe I've just been looking at it wrong, but its always looked like a box to me, and nothing like a TIE Bomber/Shuttle.  I can see frames where it kind of does, but I'm glad its gone.  Series continuity for the win.

Now somebody has to do it.  I don't have the fullscreen tapes to reference.

Nice to see quasi-official linkage to Zombie's excellent work.  If only they would acknowledge if his assumptions are actually the truth, and why didn't they scan it at higher than 1080p?

My o my, its quite interesting to see how quickly we are embracing the industries new technology.

Is there ANYONE able to send me a copy of ANH:R on betamax tape and a Super HD copy, so i can compair image quality?

Gotcha covered on the Betamax (Hi-Fi even). What's your address?  ;)

I've considered making a full-frame VHS-quality version of Revisited, just to imagine what an alternate reality version of my childhood would have been like.  Sounded like a fun project.

a standard DVD.

My o my, its quite interesting to see how quickly we are embracing the industries new technology.

Is there ANYONE able to send me a copy of ANH:R on betamax tape at all?

"standard definition DVD".  That better?  ;-)

Exactly.  A 720p AVCHD playable in Blu Ray players and a standard DVD.

I agree with the Yoda acting crazy to test Luke.  But I'm sure he had been affected somewhat by living alone for 20 years with no one to talk to but a ghost.

No, its from mid-December last year.  There are several changed elements that have already been changed back/altered further.

Notice that Ming Pan uploaded it, not Ady.

Adywan, Just saw the new video on facebook of the Hoth Battle.  The color and sound are great, love the new addition of walkers and snowspeeders.  I do have one question that the clip didn't show.  During the battle Luke calls Wedge both Rogue 3 and Rogue 2.  Have you corrected this dialogue mistake?  It's not listed as one of the changes on page 1 of this thread.  Luke is Rogue Leader, Zev Senesca is Rogue 2, and Wedge Antilles is Rogue 3.  Luke turns his head away from the camera when calls Wedge, Rogue 2. So I don't think it'd be too hard to redub Luke saying either "Rogue 3" or "Wedge" instead.  Keep up the good work.

The "new" Hoth video wasn't posted by Ady, it was reposted from a video released 12-12-2008, so its actually fairly old.  Most of those changes have been changed yet again (there are no additional walkers now, for example).

As for the dialog mistake, I think it was Luke forgetting who he was talking to perhaps?  "Rogue 3, Wedge, I mean, whichever you are."  We'll have to see what Ady thinks.

Has anyone considered that perhpas Hoth has an atmosphere high in... helium? Perhaps the high helium concentration accounts for the blue snow, and the high reflectivity accounts for the general bluish hue.

Or maybe the whole planet is berry-flavored.

Making the entire cast sound like they're on a helium-filled planet would be an easy fix.  And hilarious!

The part of the first young Snake Eyes vs. Storm Shadow fight where Snake spits the dinner roll at Storm Shadow's eye

Seriously?  Wow, this movie seems like a winner.  I've not seen it, are we talking child SE vs SS via flashback?  Are they that integral to the story?

Asteroids.

005 i need your expertize :)

When yoda says yes yes the footage is reversed? At least what i saw from ady's clip

 

-Angel

Noticed that too, will research in a second after this next comp.

UPDATE: Looks like its the same movement as the original, something in the Facebook video really makes it look reversed for some reason.

Read Yoda's lips: "You Seek Yoda."

Yoda blinks, Needa doesn't.

Yoda eats Luke's "dinner"

Amazing, simply amazing:

Here we go!

Is that new shuttle a little on the small side?  Or was Vader's shuttle in RotJ too big?

I'll try to get some comparisons together.

It's the correct scale. Just look at the size of the docking bay compared to the shuttle. Plus in ROTJ the shuttle came out of the front smaller bay not the main one

Either way, its adorable!  And you moved the regular SD, I assume to better line up with that shadow I never noticed?

How i can see them without the facebook login crap?

Edit: ARG!!!!!!!

Now i have to enlist friends who has shitbook to sent me the videos.

 

-Anger

I don't see what all the fuss is about. Didn't you have to register to use these forums? Why is facebook any different?

I'm doing the best i can with the new restrictions my ISP imposed upon its users this weekend. Maybe i shouldn't have bothered

No, no!  Bother, bother!

Fantastic tweaks, love the blink and "yOda".  However, you can still see through the crack under R2's head, just to be the nitpicker I am (which is nothing compared to some around here....)

Thanks for sharing, love that you've gone back on your "no more previews EVER!" ;-)

I'm not bothered about seeing some light underneath the dome. he is a robot after all :) Now if you could see Kenny Baker then that would be a different matter

Whatever you say, sir.  He's not air-(space?-)tight, I guess.  Fine by me, just remembered that it was suggested in the past.
