STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time
I used Imgburn for my first burn since I had to recreate the ISO from scratch. I've not burned it with CDBurnerXP yet.

The only things that might glitch are the menu transitions in the special features and the pause in the middle of the movie as the laser starts heading back towards the center of the disc.

Anyway, as far as 'Empire' goes, I notice that the blue colouring of R2D2 in the X-wing in space is erratic. In some shots his blue sections are completely blue with no 'shading', but other shots have his blue sections blackly shaded with a little blue added. Tying these together a bit would be nice, and to be honest, I prefer the latter look.


I too like the mostly black coloring to R2 in those particular shots. I mean, its space, there shouldn't be that much coloring to his panels. Definitely don't make them solid black, but just hint them a bit on the blue side.

I watched that clip and my mouth dropped open. I had no idea how freaking bad the DVDs are! Jeez, that's just ridiculous. If one guy in a few weeks can fix it, imagine how fast Lowry or ILM could have fixed it if they just took the time.

Your work is even more incredible the more I look at it.

Oh, and that first shot of R2 turning towards the X-Wing is the shot where I think the X-Wing should start slipping into the water. It's really high out of the water to only have a part of the wing sticking up a few seconds later.

Boba Fett in RotJ seems to be the point where Lucas started putting things in his movies to reference other movies, and I had the same reaction I did to the references to the OOT in the PT. At first I thought lines like "You're going to be the death of me" and seeing the Death Star in the PT were awesome, and nothing could be better. Then the more I thought about it, the more I realized that it is completely pointless and fanboyish to refer to the other better movies before they happen. Especially since we're supposed to watch them in numerical order, where you wouldn't get the jokes they're making until after they happen. I don't want to be watching Vader and Obi-Wan duel in ANH and remember Obi-Wan's haunting words "You're going to be the death of me" as he disappears.

As for Fett not doing much in Empire, the thing is that without him tracking down the Falcon to Cloud City, the last third of the movie wouldn't happen. In RotJ, if Fett didn't flirt with the dancer and fall into the Sarlacc, um, nothing would have changed. His death doesn't have to be a blaze of glory, but Lucas is just ruining our remembrance of better movies by killing him with one of the Three Stooges.

Here I am going off on a RotJ/PT tangent after getting yelled at about it just a few pages back...

There is something that i have noticed about the 2004 DVD though that's a bit weird. There are some shots that don't have the blue tint and are actually the correct colour. It almost looks like the film was cut into loads of different sections and then colour corrected by a load of different people without any communication to achieve a balance. Its the worse colour job i have ever seen


For some reason, this reminds me of the War when Britain tried to translate the funniest joke in the world in German by splitting it into pieces. I seem to recall one of them saw another one's word and spent several weeks in the hospital.

Is that bad that Lucas is reminding me of a Monty Python sketch?

4 hours? Take the torrented files, apply the standard fix, run the Quickpar fix from last night, pcgedit the ISO, and burn. It sounds complicated, but its not.

I'm not trying to attack Cassius, I'm just trying to justify all the time Ady spent last night to fix it. Don't be disheartened, follow torrentors!

That being said, I'm never using torrents for that again. ESBR will be through Usenet, no matter the cost!

And the menus on my test ISO were black and white, which is really weird.

EDIT: I'm going to be leaving really soon, so someone else is going to need to test the fix when it comes.


Are those the problem files? and did you apply the NTSC fix first because they may come up as damaged if that hasn't been applied first


I applied the fix, those are the only damaged files.

I like how Ben is really tiny next to Yoda as Luke is leaving Dagobah, like he can scale himself up and down...


Yeaaah, He definitely is not tiny. Yoda is closer to the camera and Ben is further away.


Maybe its just my "how it must be because that's how I saw it as a kid" thing. I'll have to look again. Someone have a screenshot handy for my sake?

yeh that sounds about right although i know there are a few more things but i just can't remember off hand what the hell they were. lol


Except for the PURIST changes, which I just assumed, the others were the lists you made the day of the releases.

A few weeks ago you posted a new Vader voice. Did you change his voice for the DVD-9 and PURIST?
