A quick question - please, no spoilers, I live in a country where the movie for some reason gets released on 19.8. - is there a chance, that I as a person who hated every Star Trek movie after Insurrection, and I absolutely love Trek stories which have some deeper meanings, or at least are about something more than just Spock hitting somebody and explosions, is there a chance that that kind of person will at least LIKE this movie? I tried to watch different spoiler free reviews and most people seem to like this movie, but those were people who loved the previous 2 movies

Absolutely yes. I know many people like you, they enjoyed this movie.

Started TNG last night after years of procrastination. It’s going to be an uphill battle getting used to this crew; right now Trek without Spock feels deeply wrong on an emotional level. I’m interested enough to keep at it, though, and hopefully after a few more episodes I’ll be invested enough that I won’t be so preoccupied with how much I miss my buddies from TOS. I love Picard, Riker, Dr. Crusher, and Geordie, I think Deanna Troi and Wesley totally suck, I’m ambivalent about Data, and I haven’t seen enough of Worf to have much of an opinion yet. I also don’t feel strongly about Tasha Yar, but I’m spoiled enough to know that that’s not going to matter for long.

Keep going. TNG jumps from “meh” to “amazing” pretty quickly.

It’s more that Ronster is thinking because ANHR had restorations of the deleted scenes from ANH (did it?) that he would include part of the deleted scene from the RotJ Blu-ray on ESBR because part of the rigged-together “deleted scene” was built using elements from ESB.

Either way, I’m pretty sure Ady including the deleted scenes for ANH because it was before the Blu-rays and he restored them himself. Revisited is not about having all the bonus features in one place. Maybe if Ady restored them, but even then, why would he split a deleted scene because it was made from other elements?

Make sure you put Vader in his Meditation chamber from ROTJ when Luke hides the lightsaber in R2-D2 as a deleted scene from Empire… It is not from ROTJ! (Just the Vader part everything else is from ROTJ). I had suspicions about R2-D2 fixing the x-wing from the edit-droid disc but it’s definitely got a clapper board saying Revenge of the Jedi before the clips.

Make sure who does that? Pretty sure the deleted scenes were deemed unusable for Revisited.

It’s only a snippet, but adywan has just confirmed on the Revisited FB page that he’s modelling his new WAMPA on the ‘puppet’ version that attacks Luke near the start of ‘ESB’…and NOT the ‘Special Edition’ one. (Yay!)

What’s the issue with the SE Wampa ?

It exists.

If only there was a site where FAQ’s were answered, complete with helpful pictures.

why not?

Because studios aren’t in the habit of accepting crowd funded charity. Besides, I wasn’t aware there was anything wrong with most of the transfers listed.

Remember several years ago when Adywan said he was going to put us all in the credits of the film as special thanks, with our real names next to our usernames? Is that still a thing? I remember having to pm my real name to someone who was compiling all the names.

I still have that list, and I know your True Name. 😉

As I recall, we stopped taking names 7 years ago? My, how time flies.

Anyway, Adywan has been keeping it updated with the people who actually helped on the project, so I assume he’ll still be using it.
