just one bad for me

vader's saber thicker than luke's

Vader's saber is pointed towards us and Luke's away making it look smaller? At least it's not pink!

Make your browser full screen and run the slideshow for best results. :-D

I've had this ready for over a week, but I had no idea it would be posted so early!

BTW, I was thinking about mocking up the side view of the Emperor hologram this morning anyway, so I'll get on that.

There's definitely a side frame - when the Emperor and Vader are walking from the shuttle when the Emperor first arrives.  They're walking, sure, but I think it'd work.

He just needs a still frame, as the Emperor really doesn't say much from the side.  He could even pick a frame where you can't see his face at all!

It is mid-late May.  Today is May 19th actually.  The trailer, as we've been discussing, comes out on the 21st.  Two more days. :-)

Hopefully when Ady posts the trailer on Page 1, he'll update the list of changes with the one I made for him.  It has a clear list of what's changing, and what's not.  I forgot to add the green lasers, but I'm sure he'll add it.

Cant wait for the up to date list!

In fact i want some new comparison pics after the trailer arrives :)

 

-(Arch)angel

The comparison pics are done and approved by Ady.  Just waiting till Thursday morning EDT!

Some ruins or Totems isnt a bad idea because it creates a feeling of the unpredictable and menace.

That none of the characters react to.  That's one of the problems.

Ithilgore said:

It's May 21st for the trailer/anniversery, right?

Correct.

The big question, and top of my list when/if I make my own cut:

Did you remove the Audible Sparkles?  Sparkles are fine, because they're in the book.  But audible?!  Way too much.

The lightsabers, as large as they are and whatnot, were very noticeable when they changed from green to blue to purple from shot to shot.

The buttons on Vader's chestplate, however, I never noticed or really looked at that closely.

But for all we know, it could change color depending on Vader's feelings. That's how the Emperor really knows what he's up to.

Hmmm... the button is green again... "Are you sure your feelings on this matter are clear, Lord Vader?"

Darth Vader's Mood Chestplate.  I love it!

Hopefully when Ady posts the trailer on Page 1, he'll update the list of changes with the one I made for him.  It has a clear list of what's changing, and what's not.  I forgot to add the green lasers, but I'm sure he'll add it.

I don't care for the carvings idea.  I like that there are no signs of habitation of Endor until they are captured.  I'd like to think the Empire didn't even know it was habitated.

If you look closely, even to Ady's R, version when luke says the javas to get away, see the dino in the back. In one part it pop ups of the ground because of bad tracking ;)

Too bad you weren't around back then to let him know before he was finished. Haha. You just know that's the type of thing he'd get rid of.

And Ruin the fun and the oportunity to let some other editor do it? Not a change!

Besides back then i was only watching the progress, I wasnt ready to contribute :)

 

-Angel

Now the whole movie is ruined for me because you "weren't ready to contribute"! Darn you Angel!!!

;-)

Sounds awesome!  I was watching the bonus features with my wife this weekend and was thinking most of the same thing you were!

Because Sevb32 if I wanted to see Ronto ass, I'd look in the mirror.....myself along with MILLIONS of others, didn't want to see the tail end of a Ronto when we were trying to watch our favorite movie of all time....

It was actually facing the camera, in the background for a about 3 secs. No ass shown at all.

Its in the foreground, not the background.

This is what Sevb is talking about.  Either Ady didn't like it, or I suspect he lacked the elements to add it behind the aforementioned Ronto Butt since all those elements had to come from a pre-SE source, so he had to delete it here.

Janskeet said:

Could somebody with the GOUT post this frame from the GOUT? This was taken from revisited.

 

The "Dewback" has always been there.  Ady changed the direction of the sun(s?) to match the direction it is when Luke and Obi-Wan enter a few seconds later.

If you use Audacity, you can record right from your computer.  Quiet everything else, start recording, and push all the buttons in a row, then save it and split them up.

Interesting Enough Starwars.com put some soundboards: http://www.starwars.com/games/playnow/soundboards/index.html

Its an interesting efford to one who havent noticed yet.

Thanks for the link! That's probably the coolest thing I've seen on SW.com for a while. I played around with the X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter theme for about 10 minutes, imagining a battle :)

If they release more soundbites (they're free of music), this could be a great resource for building a soundtrack for a fanedit.

Um wow.  I thought my AT&T Ringtones were awesome, but this is a whole new level of usefulness!

EyeShotFirst said:

I would love to see ady make his helmet fly off too. It would be hilarious. Then you have the poor pathetic Boba Fett flying in the background. Cue the fast blooper music.

I believe last time it was posted, Fett was described as "air swimming".  Still cracks me up.

Something like that.  But there's a problem.  This full-motion shot that comes before the shot we're judging:

That is when the ship should power down, and it would be very difficult to shrink this as it moves back away from the Falcon in a nice perspective shot.  Not without Ady building his Star Destroyer a movie early.

Jedi Dark Knight said:

I agree with Angel and Sojourn, if the MF is chosen to be reduced towards a more technical correctness a "engine-powering-down-effect" could be added to draw attention to the spot to avoid what Sojourn pointed out: people will not know where to look.

I agree with JDK agreeing with Angel and Sojourn.

It was mentioned on the "ESB and ROTJ Wishlist" thread (and maybe here also) that maybe R2 should just fall straight down into the hole in the Falcon after he actives the hyperdrive.  However, this is what I discovered.

So it really doesn't need to be worried about. :-D

vaderios said:

R2 must got a terrible headache....

-Angel

R2?!  What about Chewie?!

Ripplin said:

Anyway, ESB wishlist... Hmm, well, I wish someone (especially Adywan in the ESB:R thread) would comment on that idea of having R2 fall straight into the hole after he fixes the hyperdrive, rather than that bounce/whatever thing he does.

In the shots where Chewie is handing Han tools down the same hole, there are pipes in the way that R2 might bounce off of on his way down.  Makes sense to me.

EDIT: Watched the video.  Here's what I found:

Ripplin said:

"because it wasn't "his" verison, so to speak, he didn't release a DVD-9 of it."

Maybe that's because..............................his wife made it? Just throwing that out there.

Haha. ;)

Interestingly enough, Ady said on the "JJ Abrams is Ruining Star Trek" thread that his wife doesn't like Star Wars or Star Trek.  I wonder what she thinks of his endless devotion to working on them and taking up their house with models for it....

ChainsawAsh said:

Ady didn't spend that much time on the Purist version, if I remember correctly - it was mostly done to appease fans who were unhappy with some changes to the full version (specifically music changes and such).  Apparently there was one other big reason that he's being all secretive about.  At any rate, because it wasn't "his" verison, so to speak, he didn't release a DVD-9 of it.  And since the original ANH:R files no longer exist, that's the best the "Purist" version will ever look (which is fine by me since I don't really care about it that much).

I have a theory, but I'm not sure if its right (which I guess is why it's a theory).
